. The marginal propensity to consume in a city is 0.7 and the marginal propensity to import is 0.1. A team proposes a new stadium construction project that will generate $6 million in spending. A. Using multiplier effects, how much will the project generate in total? B. Why is it likely that the actual increase in new income will be much smaller?
Consider two economies, A and B. Economy A has a marginal propensity to consume of 0.9, a net tax rate of 0.3 and a marginal propensity to import of 0.3. Economy B has a marginal propensity to consume of 0.9, a net tax rate of 0.1 and a marginal propensity to import of 0.3. Suppose there is an increase in autonomous investment of $5 billion in each of these economies. Which of the following statements is true? Group of answer...
Suppose the marginal propensity to consume is 0.7 and the government votes to increase taxes by $1.5 billion. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary. Assume the tax rate and the marginal propensity to import are 0. Calculate the tax multiplier tax multiplier:-2.3 Calculate the resulting change in the equilibrium quantity of real GDP demanded -3.5 billion
If autonomous investment increases by $100 million and the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.75, then A. real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) will fall by $200 billion. B. real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) will rise by $100 billion. C. real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) will rise by $200 billion. D. real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) will rise by $400 billion.
If the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.75, and if the goal is to increase real GDP by $400 million, then by how much would government spending have to change to generate this increase in real GDP? Group of answer choices a. $200 million. b. $400 million. c. $140 million. d. $100 million.

25. Suppose the marginal propensity to consume is 0.63, the marginal propensity to import equals 0.08, and personal income taxes amount to 9 percent of GDP. The spending multiplier for this economy is equal to _____. a. 0.54 b. 0.80 c. 1.25 d. 1.41 e. 1.85
Suppose that an economy has an income of $20,000 with a marginal propensity to consume of 0.5. What is the multiplier? Give your answer to two decimals.
Suppose the marginal propensity to consume is 0.8. The government increases government spending and taxes by $10 billion. What happens to aggregate output demanded?
If the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) equals 0.25 and the government increases spending by $600 billion, the total impact on GDP will be approximately:
