5. Graphing the consumption function from the MPC Consider a hypothetical economy in which the marginal...
Would someone explain to me how to get the answers, please. I need the graphs plotted, the blue box answer, and the fill in the blanks answered. Below are the options. Options for the first graph it says: From the preceding data, you know that the level of saving in the economy was ($140 billion, $20 billion, $0 billion, $100 billion) and the marginal propensity to save in the economy is (0.6, 0.8, 0.1, 0.2) Options for the second graph...
Real GDP, consumption, and the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) for five hypothetical countries are shown in the table below. a. Enter the current level of saving in the appropriate column in the table. b. Now suppose that GDP increases by $20 billion in each of the five countries. What would be the new level level of saving in each country? Show your answers in the table below. Country Real GDP (Billions) Consumption (Billions) MPC Current Level of Saving (Billions)...
In an economy, when disposable income increases from $400 to $500, consumption expenditure increases from $420 billion to $500. Calculate the marginal propensity to consume, the change in saving, and the marginal propensity to save. The marginal propensity to consume is 0.80. >>> Answer to 2 decimal places. When disposable income increases from $400 billion to $500 billion, saving increases by $ 20 billion. The marginal propensity to save is 0.20 >>> Answer to 2 decimal places.
For a hypothetical economy, suppose the consumption equation is C = 30 + 0.65Y, where C is households’ consumption and Y is disposable income. If the disposable income is $600, carefully show your steps and calculate: The levels of (i) consumption and (ii) saving. The marginal propensity to (i) consume and (ii) save. The average propensity to (i) consume and (ii) save. Interpret your estimates in (c).
Consumption expenditure (billions of 2009 dollars) 350- The graph shows the consumption function. What is the marginal propensity to consume, and what is autonomous consumption? 300 CF The marginal propensity to consume is 250- >>> Answer to 2 decimal places. 200- Autonomous consumption is $billion. 150 100 50- 0- 0 100 200 300 400 Disposable income (billions of 2009 dollars)
Consider a country with the national income of $32 billion, the amount of taxes paid by households of $12 billion, and household consumption of $16 billion. Suppose that the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.7 On the following graph, use the blue line (circle symbol) to plot the economy's consumption function. Note: Select and drag the line segment from the palette to the graph. Then select a point on the line segment and drag it to its desired position...
Macroeconomics Assignment 2 1. The table shows disposable income and consumption expenditure in an economy. Use the table to work Problems A and B. Disposable Consumption income expenditure (Billions of dollars) 800 1,000 A. Calculate saving at each level of disposable income. Over what range of disposable income does consumption expenditure exceed disposable income? Calculate autonomous consumption expenditure. B. Calculate the marginal propensity to consume. At what level of disposable income will savings be zero? If expected future income increases,...
Year The accompanying table presents hypothetical data on aggregate consumption expenditure and disposable income in millions of dollars over five years. Disposable income (in millions) Consumption expenditure (in millions) 175 2013 200 2014 225 2015 280 193.75 235 268.75 250 2016 325 2017 300 a. What is the marginal propensity to consume (MPC)? MPC: b. What is the marginal propensity to save (MPS)? MPS:
Keynesian Consumption Function (billions of dollars per year) Real disposable income Consumption Saving MPC MPS $100 200 300 400 500 $150 200 250 300 350 a.) Calculate the saving schedule. b. Determine the marginal propensities to consume (MPC) and save (MPS). c. Determine the break-even income. d.) What is the relationship between the MPC and the MPS? 3. Explain why the MPC and the MPS must always add up to one. 4. How do households "dissave" 5. Explain how each...
