QUESTION 8As a result of entering the world economy, Neverland experiences economic boom and its GDP goes up to y- 13250: The function that describes consumption is thesame, cd(r) = 5000 – 1000r +0.25Y, but the investment curve shifted to the right: 1d(r) = 550 – 1800r + 0.2Y: This is because firms expect growth to continuein the future and want to invest more. Government spending is also the same: G- 180o0. The world interest rate is 5%. What is Neverland's current account balance?Note: Type in your answer approximated to two decimal points, i.e., your answer must be of the form "999.99".

Assume a two-period small open economy model, where the national product is 50 in the current period, and 88 in the future period. The world real interest rate is 10% per period. The representative consumer has the following utility function: U(c,G,c’,G’) = ln(c+G) + ln(c’+G’). a) What are the optimal consumption plus government spending in the current and in the future period? What is the current account surplus? Show this in a diagram. b) Now, suppose that governments in the rest of the world impose a tax on lending to foreigners of 5%. Determine how this affects consumption plus government spending in the present and the future, and the current account surplus. Explain your results. c) Suppose that governments in the rest of the world still impose a tax on lending to foreigners of 5%.

Our closed economy has a production function Y = A•F(K,LxE), where Y, K, L, E & A all have their usual meanings as per our lectures & course textbook. Also, this production function exhibits all the usual mathematical/economic properties we usually assume: positive marginal products, diminishing marginal products, complementarity between K & (LxE), and constant returns to scale. The aggregate consumption function depends negatively on the real interest rate, the government budget is balanced initially & the economy is in both a long-run equilibrium and steady state initially. The population growth rate is 2% per year, capital depreciates at a rate of 3% per year, the saving rate is 25% and technology is constant. Suppose the level of labour effectiveness (E) suddenly permanently rises by 10%. a) Use the long-run classical model to determine the qualitative impact of this shock on the long-run equilibrium levels of real output, consumption, investment, real interest…

If the consumption function is C = 100 + 0.8Yd, T= 200 and Y = 800, what is savings?
Consider the following two-period consumption-saving model: Max C (BC2)}, C1,C2 subject to the following constraints Y1 =C1+S, Y2 = C2 – (1+r)S. 1. Solve for the intertemporal budget constraint 2. Draw the budget constraint (in a graph) with Y1 = 140, Y2 = 70, and r=0.25. Be sure to label the maximum values of C¡ and C2 on the y-axis and x-axis. 3. Suppose that ß = 0.8, solve for the optimal values of consumption, C and C5. 4. Compare your consumption function for period 1 to a consumption function suggested by John Maynard Keynes (the so-called Keynesian consumption function). Are they different? 5. When r does down, how does Ci change? Does it increase or decrease? Show this mathe- matically. 6. Compute the marginal propensity to consume in period 1. Does this fall in the range sug- gested by Keynes?

Suppose a closed economy with no government spending or taxing is capable of producing an output of $1600 at full employment. Suppose also that autonomous consumption is $120, intended investment is $160, and the mpc is 0.50. What is the value of output (Y) in equilibrium?
Consider the Keynesian consumption function Yt =B₁ + B₂x2t + εt ( where yt is per capita consumption, and x2+ is per capita income. The coefficient B₂ is interpreted causally as the marginal propensity to consume, and we expect 0
