5. An increase in the marginal propensity to consume from 0.6 to 0.8 will cause
(a) the ZZ line to become steeper and a given change in autonomous consumption to have a smaller effect on output
(b) the ZZ line to become flatter and a given change in autonomous consumption to have a smaller effect on output
(c) the ZZ line to become steeper and a given change in autonomous consumption to have a larger effect on output
(d) the ZZ line to become flatter and a given change in autonomous consumption to have a larger effect on output
"C"
An increase in the MPC will make the ZZ line or the aggregate expenditure line more flatter and an change in the autonomous consumption will have a larger effect on the output as more percentage of the income is spend by the household.

4. Based on our understanding of the model presented in Chapter 3, we know that an increase in cl (where C c0+ elYD) will cause )a the ZZ line to become flatter. )cagiven change in autonomous consumption (c0) to have a larger effect on output ) b. the ZZ line to become steeper ) da given change in autonomous consumption (c0) to have a larger-effect on output Opater 5. Suppose the consumption equation is represented by the following: C-250 +...
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...
If the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) in your classmate's nation is 3/5 and the marginal propensity to save (MPS) in your country is 1/10, which of the following must be true? a. Autonomous consumption is lower in your classmate's nation than in your country. b. Autonomous consumption is higher in your classmate's nation than in your country. c. The spending multiplier is smaller in your classmate's nation than in your country. d. Total consumption is lower in your classmate's...
24. If $1,000 of additional spending occurs and the marginal propensity to consume is 0.8, the total effect on the economy is an increase of_ in income or output. A) $800 B) $1,000 C) $5,000 D) $8,000
Suppose that the marginal propensity to consume if.6 and that there is an increase in government expenditure of 5. a) According to the Keynesian cross model, what is the change in output that results from this policy change? b) Describe the graphical impact that this change will have on the Keynesian cross model c) Why is the change in output different from the change in government expenditure? Explain how this process works intuitively.
Marginal propensity to consume is 0.8, and there is no trade, taxes or transfers in this economy. An increase of $1 billion in investment spending will cause O an increase of 0.8 billion dollars spending in the first round 5 billion dollars' worth of spending due to multiplier effects 4 billion dollars' worth of spending due to multiplier effects a $4 billion rightward shift in the AD curve
Suppose that the marginal propensity to consume in a country is 0.8, and the real potential output and current real GDP are respectively $800 billion and $700. To bring the economy to potential output, the government should increase its expenditure by $100 billion. True False

If the marginal propensity to consume is 0.75, and there is no investment accelerator or crowding out, a $120 billion increase in government expenditures would shift the aggregate demand curve right by $480 billion, but the effect would be larger if there were an investment accelerator. $360 billion, but the effect would be smaller if there were an investment accelerator. $480 billion, but the effect would be smaller if there were an investment accelerator. $360 billion, but the effect would...
