1) Equilibrium income in the domestic economy:
Savings= Investment
or, Income- consumption = Investment
Multiplier in the economy = change in income/ change in investment =( change in consumption, investment, government expenditure, taxes, net imports)/ change in investment
For closed economy, multiplier would be= change in income/ change in investment =( change in consumption, investment, government expenditure, taxes)/ change in investment
Two multipliers will be different because: in open economy, change of net exports is taken as a component of income in open economy and whereas, change in net exports is not a component of income in closed economy.
2. Equilibrium income in the domestic economy: (0.5Y -12)/0.3
Solution:
Y= C+ I+ G -T +Exports - Imports
or, Y = 10 + 0.8(Y-10) +10+10-10+0.3Y*- 0.3Y
or, Y-0.8Y +0.3Y = 12 + 0.3Y*
or, Y* = (0.5Y -12)/0.3
Multiplier in the open economy = Change in Y / Change in I = ((0.5Y -12)/0.3)/10 =(0.5Y -12)/3
Multiplier in the close economy: Change in Y(CLOSED ECONOMY) / I = Change in Y / Change in I = 60/10 =6
Solution:
Y of the closed economy= C +I+G-T = 10 +0.8Y-8+10+10-10
or, Y = 12/0.2 = 60

Consider two open economies in which the real exchange rate is fixed and equal to one. Consumption, investment, government spending, taxes, imports and exports are given by equations below for each economy. Variables with * denote values for the foreign economy. Domestic Economy: C= 12 + 0.8 (Y-T) I= 8 G= 10 T=11 IM= 0.2Y EX= 0.2Y* Foreign Economy: C*= 12+ 0.8 (Y*-T*) I*=8 G*=10 T*=11 IM*= 0.2Y* EX= 0.2Y a) Solve for the equilibrium output in the domestic economy,...
please have a detail process A. Blanchard and Johnson (2015), p. 57, question 5 For both political and macro- economic reasons, governments are often reluctant to run budget deficits. Here, we exam- ine whether policy changes in G and T that maintain a balanced budget are neutral for the macro economy. Put another way, we examine whether it is possible to affect output through changes in G and T so that the government budget remains balanced. Start with this equation:...

Question 3 1.5 pts The aggregate demand of an open economy is given by the after-tax domestic consumption C, the investment I (which depends on the interest rater), the government spending G and net exports X-M: AD-C+I+G+X-M=CO+ c1 (1 - t)Y + I(r) +G+X-mY Co is autonomous consumption.c, is the marginal propensity to consume, and m is the marginal propensity to import. In the economy's equilibrium this equals its output: AD - Y. Solving for Y yields: y=(1/(1-c1(1 – t)...
5. Algebra of the income-expenditure model Consider a small economy that is closed to trade, so its net exports are equal to zero. Suppose that the economy has the following consumption function, where C is consumption, Y is real GDP, I is investment, G is government purchases, and T is for net taxes: C= 20 + 0.75 x (Y - T) Suppose G = $35 billion, 1 = $60 billion, and T = $20 billion. Given the consumption function and the fact that, in...
