The following data for an imaginary economy.
MPC = b = 0.8 , autonomous consumption = $50 M , Investment = $100 M , Government spending = $80 M, Transfer payments = $40 M, Taxes = $12 M
Using this data calculate:
a. The level of national income
b. The level of Saving
Homework Answers
a. At equilibrium, Y = C + I + G
Y = 50 + 0.8(Y+40-12) + 100 + 80
Y = 252.4 + 0.8Y
Y = 1262
National income = 1262
b. C= 50 + 0.8(1262+40-12) = 1082
National savings = Y - C - G
= 1262 - 1082 - 80 = 100

5. Graphing the consumption function from the MPC Consider a hypothetical economy in which the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.50. That is, if disposable income increases by $1, consumption increases by 50¢. Suppose further that last year disposable income in the economy was $400 billion and consumption was $350 billion.
