The given MPC is 0.50, investment changes by 100. So, the formula for the multiplier is:
=1/(1-MPC)
=1/(1-0.50)
= 2
The change in equilibrium GDP is = 2 * 100 =200
Add Answer to:
In a closed economy, the MPC is 0.50. Investment changes by 100. The change in equilibrium...

Consider two closed economies that are identical except for
their marginal propensity to consume (MPC). Each economy is
currently in equilibrium with real income and planned expenditure
equal to $100 billion, as shown by the black points 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 line has a slope of 0.5 and passes through the...

1. Suppose in a simple closed economy with MPC = 0.75, the planned investment spending nas suddenly fallen, reducing AD and output to a level that below the natural level of output by 100 Million. Assume that the real interest rate is constant so that there is no crowding out of (gross) investment. (a) If the government decided to try to get the output back to the natural level of output using only a change in government spending (AG), by...

Suppose a closed economy has an intended investment of 100 and an aggregate consumption function given by C = 250 +0.75Yd. Suppose also that the government spends 50 but collects no taxes. What is equilibrium output and income? (round your answer to the nearest whole value) Suppose a closed economy has an aggregate consumption function given by C = 200 +0.50 Yd and generates $2400 output and income in equilibrium. Suppose also that the government collects a lump-sum tax of...
