Which of the following statements regarding the discount rate is correct? a. The private discount rate reflects the average growth of GDP. b. The social discount rate reflects society willingness to consume today rather than in the future. c. The social discount rate exceeds the private discount rate d. The private discount rate is equal to the social discount rate.
Consider an economy described as follows:
Y = C + I + G.
Y = 8,000.
G = 2,500.
T = 2,000.
C = 1000 + 2/3(Y – T).
I = 1,200 + 100r.
In this economy, compute private saving, public saving, and national saving.
Find the equilibrium interest rate.
Now suppose that G is reduced by 500. Compute private saving, public saving, and national saving.
Find the new equilibrium interest rate
