Question

Assume you have the following model of the expenditure sector:

AD  = C + I + G + NX        

C = Co + cYD      

YD = Y - TA + TR      

TA  = TAo     

TR  = TRo                            

I = Io                                

G = Go                        

NX = NXo

If a change in income by ∆Y = - 800 leads to a change in savings by ∆S = - 160, what is the size of the expenditure multiplier?
