Question

Equilibrium income

Government spending is 700; investment is 310 and consumption is given by 

C=259+0.8Yd

Net tax T=-50+0.25Y

I. Cal equilibrium income

Ii. Assume investment falls by 80units,compute new level of equil income and the value of budget deficit/surplus at that level.of income.

Iii. Suppose that government raises lump-sum taxes by the any of deficit /surplus in order to bal the dudget,what will be the new level.of equil income?

    There is a consumer who lives for two periods. His income is given by Y1 and Y2. He has access to the credit market with the interest rate r. The government collects lump-sum taxes T1 and T2 (note that T1 and T2 might be negative meaning that the government makes a transfer). The government can run a surplus or a deficit, but must borrow (or save) in the credit market at the interest rate r. Assume that the government is...

    Which of the following statements about taxation is incorrect? A change in taxes does not affect consumption. An increase in taxes decreases income and expenditures. A tax cut raises income and expenditures. Cutting taxes by $20 is not the same as increasing government spending by $20. A tax cut affects aggregate demand indirectly. The sum of the unemployment rate and the inflation rate is known as: the mortality rate. the misery index. a coincident indicator. the macroeconomic index. the market...
