Q5. What is the Keynesian multiplier and how does it expand the economy at the rate...
4. Keynesian cross and Keynesian multiplier: In the Keynesian cross, assume that the consumption function is given by C - 100 +0.5 (Y-T) Planned investment is 75; government purchases and taxes are both 100. a) Graph planned expenditure as a function of income. b) What is the equilibrium level of income? c) If government purchases increase to 110, what is the new equilibrium income? d) How big is the Keynesian government purchases multiplier in this example? e) What level of...
Describe the Keynesian "multiplier effect". That is, how does the government spending $100B ultimately cause more economic impact beyond the initial spending?
2. An economy is described by the following equations C 40 + 0.8(Y-7) P 70 G- 120 T 150 The multiplier in this economy is 5.(LO4. LO5) a Find a numerical equation relating planned aggregate expenditure to output b Construct a table to find the value of short-run equilibrium output. (Hint: The economy is fairly close to full employment) c By how much would government purchases have to change in order to eliminate any output gap? By how much would...
Question 1. Consider a closed economy to which the Keynesian-cross analysis applies. Consumption is given by the equation C= 200 + 2/3(Y-T). Planned investment is 300, as are government spending and taxes. (18 points) a. If Y is 1,500, what is planned spending? Should equilibrium Y be higher or lower than 1,500? (4 points) b. What is equilibrium Y? (Hint: Substitute the values of equations for planned consumption, investment, and government spending into the equation Y C+I+ G and then...
What is the spending multiplier if the MPC is 62%? 1.61 .62 2.63 Unlike the neoclassical approach to the economy, the Keynesian approach focuses on sticky prices and aggregate demand. This focus is advantageous for understanding the reason cyclical unemployment and recessions occur, as these fluctuations take place in the ________ -run. long gap short What is true about the expenditure multiplier? GDP does not change proportionally. GDP changes when the aggregate expenditure changes. A larger change in expenditure causes...

Question 2 In the Keynesian cross, assume that the consumption function is given by C = 150 +0.7 (Y-T) Planned investment is: I = 100 - 10 *r Government purchases and taxes are both 50. a. Graph consumption as function of income. b.Graph investment as function of the real interest rate. c.Suppose that the real interest rate is 5. Write the equation of the planned expenditure. d.Suppose that the real interest rate is...
Q1. What are the “automatic” and “discretionary” aspects of fiscal policy and how do they fit Keynesian fiscal policy to stimulate the economy in a recession, in terms of Government spending, taxation and budget deficits in a Demand driven economy. Q2. Use the consumption function model to explain the impact of government spending using the concepts of the Paradox of Thrift, the Multiplier effect and the role of Expectations (Consumer Confidence.) Q3. Explain two arguments against Keynesian fiscal policy, one...

Question#1A The following are details of the expenditure of a very small economy. All the autonomous expenditures are given in $ thousand. C = 200 + 0.8Yd I = 10 G = 50 T = 0.05Y X = 40 M = 0.1Y Derive the aggregate expenditure function, and calculate the equilibrium real GDP Determine the expenditure multiplier using aggregate expenditure function slope value Question#1B Suppose the slope of the AE curve is 0.80. i) What is the expenditure multiplier? ii) Everything else the same, by how much does equilibrium aggregate expenditure...
2. a) Derive the equation for the Keynesian Cross and draw it on a diagram with Y on both the horizontal and vertical axes. What is output? Assume that r = 0.1 for this part of the question. Hint: Use the equation Y = C d +I d +G. b) Suppose that government spending doubles to G' (prime aka future) = 200. The government still balances its budget. What is the effect on output? Show this on your diagram from...
