n an effort to make sales projections, M/s K, B and A, the three B-school executives of Vengaboys Inc., were discussing about the national income and its growth in Ibiza. K had estimated a linear consumption function for Ibiza to be C = 100 + 0.6 Y, and investment to be I = 100 per ear. In Ibiza, there was no income tax and government spending was minimal (assume 0). Ibiza was a closed economy, and hence no exports and imports. (i)K immediately knew what the investment Multiplier was. Can you find out? (ii)What is the level of income in Ibiza? (iii)K estimated that with Government spending 100 on a new road to be constructed, the income levels are sure to go up. K quickly calculated the change in income and the new income level to be:
