1. a) Calculate the equilibrium GDP of a Keynesian demand driven closed economy with autonomous investment and government expenditure. Derive the Balanced Budget Multiplier. b) Now relax the assumption on autonomous investment. Introduce the investment function I = I,-Or, wherer is the real interest rate. Derive the IS curve. If the LM M curve in this economy is = aY – Br then derive the equilibrium output. Derive the P - multiplier effect and explain. Would there be a crowding out?

The Keynesian multiplier relationship Y = 1/ (1-c) is derived from two initial equations: Y = C + I and C= cY. For the multiplier relationship to be acceptable, a. the initial two equations must be acceptable b. saving must be negative c. the algebraic derivation must be correct d. all individuals must receive the same income

Consider a closed economy where investment is constant and the marginal propensity to consume is 0.8. In that economy, the government decides to increase its expenditures. Why is the associated Keynesian multiplier greater than 1? Select one: a. Because the production increase leads to a revenue increase which leads to a demand increase which leads to a consumption increase which leads to further increases in production, demand and consumption b. Because the demand increase leads to a consumption increase which leads to a GDP increase which leads to a supply increase which leads to further increases in consumption, revenue and supply c. Because the demand increase leads to a supply increase which leads to a revenue increase which leads to a consumption increase which leads to further increases in demand, supply and GDP d. Because the production increase leads to a demand increase which leads to a supply increase which leads to a revenue increase which leads to further increases in…
When income is zero within the Keynesian cross model planned expenditure will be greater than zero and the intercept of the consumption function will hence not be zero either. The reason for this feature of the model is that either: The Marginal Propensity to Save (MPS) is greater than 0.5 The Marginal Propensity to Consume (MPC) is greater than 0.5 Autonomous consumer expenditure depends only on the level of national income Autonomous consumer expenditure does not depend on the level of national incomeOnly one answer can be correct. Please pick one and explain your reasoning.
If the Keynesian multiplier is defined as 1/ (1-c) where c is the proportion of income that is consumed, then when c increases, a. the multiplier decreasesb. income declines c. the multiplier increases d. investment increases
Consider an economy described by the IS-LM model. You are given the following data: MPC = 0.6, C * = 10 AE = Y G = 75,T = 60 I(r) = 500 – 1200r M = 250, P = 5 - k(r)Y = 0.1Y – 10r (A) Write out the planned expenditure function and solve for equilibrium output as a function of the interest rate (the IS curve). (B) Using the money demand function, solve for equilibrium output given the interest rate in the money market (the LM curve). (C) Using the IS and LM curves, derive equilibrium output and the interest rate.
Macmillan Learning Aggregate Demand I-Work It Out Question 1 In the Keynesian cross model, assume that the consumption function is given by C = $170+0.7(Y-T) Planned investment is $100; government purchases and taxes are both $100. c. If government purchases increase to $115, what is the new equilibrium income? What is the multiplier for government purchases? new Y= $ multiplier:
In the Keynesian cross model, assume that the consumption function is given by C = 20 + 0.8(Y- T). Planned investment is 200; government purchases and taxes are both 400. There is no foreign trade. An economist has claimed that the full employment level of output is 2,400. How much should the government expenditure or taxes rise or fall to achieve full employment?
If the consumption function is C = 80 + 0.6Y, then the marginal propensity to consume equals: 0.6. 0.4. 0.5. -0.4.
Assume the following information for an economy: Natural level of output = $190b Autonomous consumption = 50 Total investment = 16 Government expenditure = 19 Autonomous taxation = 20 Marginal propensity to consume = 0.6 Based on this information answer the following questions: b) Calculate the output ratio for the economy.
If the marginal propensity to save (MPS) is 0.70 and autonomous consumer spending is 100, what is the aggregate consumption function? C= 0.80*Y + 100 C= 0.80*Y + 80 C= 0.20*Y + 80 C= 0.30*Y + 100
Consider the Aggregate expenditure model. Where:AD = C + I + G + NX where G, and NX are all autonomous.C = C + c∗(Y + T R − T A) where T A = tY with t ∈ [0, 1] is the proportional tax rate and c∗ ∈ (0, 1) is the marginal propensity to consume. In addition, investment is given by: I = I − bi where I is autonomous investment and b > 0 determines the sensitivity ofinvestment to changes in the interest rate, i. A. Using the information above, solve for the IS function. Combine all the autonomous terms into one term, A. B. In an (x, y) plane, where Y is on the horizontal axis and i is on thevertical axis, illustrate the IS curve you derived above. Make sure to explainhow you got the Y-intercept and solve for the slope. c. How does c∗ affect the slope of the IS curve? Explain your answerintuitively. d. Consider the LM curve, where the real demand for money is such that:MD/P= kY − hi where k ∈ (0, 1) represents how sensitive the demand for money is to changesin income (or the inverse of…
