Ans) the correct option is b) 5 billion dollars worth of spending due to multiplier effect
Change in real GDP = change in investment / (1-MPC)
Change in real GDP = 1/(1 - 0.8) = 5
Marginal propensity to consume is 0.8, and there is no trade, taxes or transfers in this...
10.) An economy has a marginal propensity to consume and Y* , income-expenditure equilibrium GDP, equals $500 billion. Given an autonomous increase in plannėd investment of $10 billion, show the rounds of increased spending that take place by completing the accompanying table. The first and second rows are filled in for you. In the first row the increase of planned investment spending of $10 billion raises real GDP and YD by $10 billion, leading to an increase in consumer spending...
Suppose the marginal propensity to consume is 0.8. The government increases government spending and taxes by $10 billion. What happens to aggregate output demanded?
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
