ADVANCED ANALYSIS Assume that the consumption schedule for a private open economy is such that consumption C= 60 +
08Y Assume further that planned investment lo government spending G, and net exports X are independent of the level
of real GDP nd constant at lg 40, G= 0, and Xp= 10. Recall also that, in equilibrium, the real output produced () is equal to
aggregate expenditures: Y= C+lg+ G+ Xp
Instructions: Round your answers to the nearest whole number.

Suppose consumption function is specified as C= $200 + 0.75Ya planned investment is $600, net taxes are $400, and
government spending totals $500 of a hypothetical economy in 2020. Find algebraically: LO 3
A. The equilibrium level of aggregate output by equating aggregate output and planned aggregate expenditure.
B. Consumption when aggregate output is at the equilibrium level.
