1. If disposable income is 4,000, consumption is 3,500, government spending is 1,000, and taxes minus transfers are 800, national saving is equal to: a. 300. b. 500. c. 700. d. 1,000. 2. Assume that equilibrium GDP (Y) is 5,000. Consumption (C) is given by the equation C= 500 + 0.6Y. Investment (I) is given by the equation I= 2,000 – 100r, where r is the real interest rate in percent. No government exists. In this case, the equilibrium real...

2. The circular flow of income and expenditure The income and expenditure approaches to measuring a nation's GDP can be combined using the circular flow model. Categorize each flow in the following table as part of either aggregate demand or national income. Flow Aggregate Demand National Income Net taxes (NT) O Investment spending (1) Consumption (C) Government purchases (G) OOO Net exports (X - IM) Disposable income (DI) 0 While national income and domestic product must be equal, income must...

Assume the following macroeconomic variable in $ billion) for an economy: Y-national income - Aggregate Expenditures Aggregate Expenditures Consumption + Investment + Government Spending + Net Export Assuming that the full employment level in $6,000 billion, determine the change in government spending needed to reach full employment. (Hint: calculate the current GDP then calculate aggregate expenditures using national income of $6,000 and find the difference) Consumption (80% of disposable or after tax income) + $300 C = $300 +0.8 (Y-T)...
A5-10. Suppose the following aggregate expenditure model describes an economy: C = 100 + (5/6)Yd T = (1/5)Y 1 = 200 G = 400 X = 300 IM = (1/3)Y where C is consumption, Yd is disposable income, T is taxes, Y is national income, I is investment, G is government spending, X is exports, and IM is imports. (a) Derive a numerical expression for aggregate expenditure (AE) as a function of Y. Calculate the equilibrium level of national income....
