Explain why it is differentfrom the initial effect.d) How does the total effect of this $24 billion tax cut compare to the total effect of a $24billion increase in government purchases? Explain.Based on your answer to (d), can you think of a way by which the government canincrease aggregate demand without increasing the budget deficit?

The following table shows data on personal consumption expenditures, gross private domestic investment, exports, imports, and government consumption expenditures and gross investment for the United States in 2007, as published by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. All figures are in billions of dollars. Fill in the missing cells in the following table to calculate GDP. Components Personal Consumption Expenditures (CC) $9,734.2 Gross Private Domestic Investment (II) $2,125.4 Exports (XX) $1,643 Imports (MM) $2,351 Net exports of goods and services (X−MX−M) Government Consumption Expenditures and Gross Investment (GG) $2,689.8 Gross domestic product (GDP) This method of calculating GDP, which involves summing the , is called the approach.
You are an analyst at Heys International Luggage. Your output last year of Carbon-X luggage sets was 100,000 sets, based on estimates that sales would equal 100,000 at an average price of $56.84. Heys International tries to maintain inventory at 10,000 sets. Actual sales of the luggage last year were 105,000. Considering only this result: aggregate expenditure was equal to GDP. aggregate expenditure was less than GDP. aggregate expenditure was greater than GDP. aggregate expenditure is always equal to GDP, so these sales results are irrelevant. 2 of 25 > Яншират ИРИНАРИ

Given the following: Ca = $100, Ig = $50, Xn = − $10, and G = $30, what is the economy’s equilibrium GDP?
Use the figure below to answer the following questions. Aggregate Expenditure (billions of 2012 dollars) 400 360 320 280 240 200 160 120 80 80 40 45° line AE 0 40 80 120 160 200 240 280 320 360 400 Real GDP (billions of 2012 dollars) The economy depicted does not engage in international trade and has no government. Planned aggregate expenditure (AE) is equal to the sum of consumption expenditure (C) and investment (I). Investment is $ billion. If investment increases by $75 billion, then real GDP increases by $ billion.
