Marginal propensity to consume = 0.6
Government expenditure and lump sum taxes are both increased by 100
Equilibrium income will rise by 100
option(B)
Spending Multiplier = 1/(1-MPC = 1/1-0.6 = 2.5
Income increases by 100*2.5 = 250
Tax multiplier = -MPC/(1-MPC) = -0.6/0.4 = -1.5
Income decreases by 100*1.5 = 150
so, Net increase =250-150 =100

15. According to the Keynesian-cross analysis, if MPC stands for marginal propensity to consume, then a rise in taxes of ΔT will: A) decrease equilibrium income by ΔT. B) decrease equilibrium income by ΔT/(1 – MPC). C) decrease equilibrium income by (ΔT)(MPC)/(1 – MPC). D) not affect equilibrium income at all. 16. Assume that a country’s MPS is equal to 0.4 and government expenditure is lowered by $20 billion, what is the effect on the country’s Y? A) It will...
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.
Here are some facts about the economy of Inferior.

If marginal propensity to consume falls. How does this affect the Keynesian cross model? Then how does it affect the IS Curve?

Solve 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 1 Keynesian Cross Assume that households' consumption function is given by C(Y -T) 50+ 0.75(Y T), that firms' investment function is I(r) 150 10r, government spending is G 150, and the tax bill T 200. 1. What is the Marginal Propensity to Consume "MPC")? 2. What is the equilibrium level of real GDP in the goods market if the real interest rate is 5%? (Plug in r = 5 for 5%, rather than 0.05...
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
10. In the Keynesian Cross analysis, if the consumption function is given by C = 100 + 0.6(Y − T) and planned investment is 100, G = T = 100, then equilibrium Y is: a) 350 b) 400 c) 600 d) 750 11. Assume that the money demand function is L(r) = 2200 − 200r, where r is the interest rate in percent. The money supply is 2000 and the price level is 2. The equilibrium interest rate is percent....
Assuming that marginal propensity to consume is not zero, and that the balanced budget multiplier is positive, a decrease in lump-sum personal income taxes will most likely result in an increase in real GDP because which of the following must occur? I. Government spending decreases to maintain a balanced budget. II. Consumption spending increases because disposable personal income increases III. Investment spending decreases because disposable personal income increases O I only III only II only 0 I and III only
Assume the government cuts taxes by $200 billion. If the MPC is 0.8, what is the maximum potential impact on real GDP according to the simple Keynesian model? Real GDP increases by $1,000 billion Real GDP Increases by $800 billion Real GDP decreases by 51.000 billion Real GDP decreases by 5000 buttonIn Keynesian theory, if the marginal propensity to consume is 0.90 and government spending is increased by $50 billion, then real income (GDP) will maximum of billion by a decrease: $500 decrease $50 Increase: $500 Increase: $50
