Multiplier=1/(mps+mpm ) { in absence of variable tax
Mps=0.38
MPM=0.12
So ,
Multiplier=1/(0.38+0.12)=1/0.5=2
Increase in Income due to increase in government spending=120*2=240
Consider the following information: s = 0.38, dM/dY = 0.12; dY/dM = 0.35, dG = 120...
Consider a hypothetical closed economy in which households spend
$0.70 of each additional dollar they earn and save the remaining
$0.30.The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) for this economy is
_____, and the expenditure multiplier for this economy is
_____.Suppose the government in this economy decides to decrease
government purchases by $300 billion. The decrease in government
purchases will lead to a decrease in income, generating an initial
change in consumption equal to _____. This decreases income yet
again, causing...

Consider an economy in which taxes, planned investment, government spending on goods and services, and net exports are autonomous, but consumption and planned investment change as the interest rate changes. You are given the following information concerning autonomous consumption, the marginal propensity to consume, planned investment, government purchases of goods and services, and net exports: Ca = 1,500 – 10r; c = 0.6; Ta = 1,800; Ip = 2,400 – 50r; G = 2,000; NX = -200 (a)Derive Ep and...
1. Consider an economy where aggregate expenditures can be characterized by the following information: household consumption C = 100+ 0.8Yd, investment expenditure 1 = 100, government expenditure G = 300, exports X = 300 and imports IM = 0.14Y. Suppose that the income tax rate is 20%, and that the government has no initial debt, so that D = 0. (a) Solve for the AE function and the equilibrium level of national output Y. (b) Solve for the government's budget...
6. The government-purchases multiplier and the MPC Consider two closed economies that are identical except for their marginal propensity to consume (MPC). Each economy is currently in equilibrium with income and planned expenditure equal to $100 billion, as shown by the black Xs on the following two graphs. Neither economy has taxes that change with income. The grey lines show the 45-degree line on each graph. The first economy's MPC is 0.5. Therefore, its initial planned-expenditure function has a slope of 0.5...
