The smaller the MPC:
a. |
the smaller the fraction of an increase in AD due to an increase in government purchases that is consumption. |
|
b. |
the greater the fraction of an increase in AD due to an increase in government purchases that is consumption. |
|
c. |
the greater the change in government purchases required to achieve a given change in AD. |
|
d. |
(a) and (c) |
Answer
Option d
the multiplier relates the MPC and change in AD because of change in government purchases
Mulitplier=1/(1-MPC)
MPC is smaller then the Multiplier is smaller, so the change in AD is less if the multiplier is lower. As well as the change in government purchases should be large for a given change in AD.
Change in AD =change in government purchases * multiplier
Change in government purchases =chage in AD/multiplier
The smaller the MPC: a. the smaller the fraction of an increase in AD due...

22. Why is the multiplier for a change in taxes smaller than for a change in spending? a. A change in taxes has no effect on aggregate demand, only on aggregate supply. b. A change in taxes directly affects government spending as well, lowering the multiplier. c. A change in taxes affects spending directly, but at a slower rate than spending does. d. A change in taxes affects disposable income and then consumption rather than spending directly....
Suppose that the MPC is 0.8 and that $14 trillion of real GDP is currently being demanded. The government wants to increase real GDP demanded to $15 trillion at the given price level. By how much would it have to increase government purchases to achieve this goal?
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.
4. In the Keynesian-cross model with an MPC > 0, if government purchases increase by 250, then the equilibrium level of income: A) increases by 250. B) increases by more than 250. C) decreases by 250. D) increases but by less than 250.

14. Consider the following sets of values for MPC, t, and m, and recall that the simple multiplier is given by 1/[1 – MPC (1 – t) – m). Assume the AS curve is upward sloping and identical in each economy. Economy A: MPC =0.84, t = 0.15, m=0.19 Economy B: MPC =0.84, t = 0.40, m=0.19 Economy C: MPC =0.93, t = 0.15, m=0.12 Economy D: MPC = 0.75, t = 0.30, m=0.27 Economy E: MPC = 0.75, t...
Marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is the fraction of extra income that a household spends on consumption. a. true b. false
Say the MPC is .6 and suppose taxes are cut by $300 billion and government spending is increased by $200 billion. Use the multipliers to figure the effect of that change in fiscal policy on spending. The increase due to the tax cut =______. The increase due to the increase in government spending =_______. The total increase=_________. (Government spending multiplier = 1/(1-mpc) Tax multiplier = mpc/(1-mpc))
