The US economy slowed significantly in early 2008, and policy makers were extremely concerned about growth. To boost the economy, Congress passed several relief packages (the Economics Stimulus Act of 2008 and the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009) that combined would deliver about $700 billion in government spending. Assume, for the sake of argument, that this spending was in the form of payments made directly to consumers. The objective was to boost the economy by increasing the disposable income of American consumers. a. Calculate the initial change in aggregate consumer spending as a consequence of this policy measure if the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) in the US is 0.5. Then calculate the resulting change in real GDP arising from $700 billion in payments. b. Illustrate the effect on real GDP with the use of a graph depicting the income-expenditure equilibrium. Label the vertical axis "Planned Aggregate Spending, AE planned" and the horizontal axis "Real GDP."…

Consider a different economy currently in recession. If the government wants to change its spending to cause a $10,000 increase in output Y and people in the economy spend 95 percent of each additional dollar they get, how much must G change? Carefully follow all numeric directions. Use a negative number (with negative sign) to depict an increase in G and a positive number (no sign) to depict a decrease.
As part of the response to the Covid-19 virus, the Federal government passed a 2 Trillion-dollar bill. This increase in spending must result in which of the following? lower future taxes higher government spending some combination of lower future government spending and higher future taxes all available are true two of the available are true
The Laffer curve demonstrates that: policymakers will always reduce tax revenues by raising tax rates. policymakers can always increase tax revenues by raising tax rates. none of the other answers are correct above some point on the tax rate scale, lowering tax rates increases tax revenues. if tax rates are 100%, there will be large tax revenues.
Read Kiyotaki (1998). Consider the model in section 2 of the paper. Suppose there is no borrowing constraint (i.e., assume 0 is arbitrarily large). Also assume that a = 1.2, ß = 0.9, y = 1.05, d = 0.1, and n = 4. (The notations of variables and parameters follow Kiyotaki (1998). Just in case, & denotes the lower case of Delta in the Greek alphabet.) Reference: Kivotaki, N. (1998). "Credit and Business Cycles." The Japanese Economic Review, volume 49, issue 1, pages 18-35. 1. What is the equilibrium value of the net interest rate in the steady state? (For example, if your answer is 5% in percentage points, then enter 0.05.) 2. Compute the ratio of aggregate borrowing (Bt+1 /rt) to aggregate output (Yt + Y't) in the steady state. (You can assume that this ratio is constant in each period in the steady state.) Notes: Make sure to clarify the notations of variables and parameters in your proof clearly if they are different from those defined in Kiyotaki (1998).
Please give a detailed solution with an explanation and answer all the questions provided in the image below.For the 3 blank answers here are the options:Blank Answer #1:investment or government purchases or consumptionBlank Answer #2:decreasing or increasingBlank Answer #3:an overall increase or an overall decrease or no overall change
This question requires you to solve a macro model algebraically. Reading the appendix to this chapter will help you to answer this question. But, just in case, we lead you through it step by step. The equations for the model are as follows: i) C = c + MPC × YD consumption ii) I = I0 investment iii) G = G0 government purchases iv) T = tY net tax revenue v) X = X0 exports vi) IM = mY imports a. Step 1: Recall that Y D = Y – T. By using this fact, substitute the tax function into the consumption function and derive the relationship between desired consumption and national income. b. Step 2: Sum the four components of desired aggregate expenditure ( C, I, G, NX). This is the aggregate expenditure ( AE) function. Collect the autonomous terms separately from the induced terms. c. Step 3: Recall the equilibrium condition, Y = AE. Form the equation Y = AE, where AE is your expression for the AE function from part (b). (Your autonomous terms can be collectively labelled A and the terms that…
A media company wants to know how much consumers spend in a closed economy. The answer is not readily available, but we know the following: Consumption: C = 50 + 0.6(Y - T) • Investment: 1 = 40-500 i • Taxes: T = 2C . Government spending: G = 20 where Y is GDP and i is the interest rate. At the time of the analysis, the central bank made sure that the interest rate. was 4% What is the level of consumption C? Select one: a 155 b. 170 c. 195 d. 220

A) Changes in net exports arising from a change in interest rates causes a shift in the IS curve. B) Expansionary fiscal policy will cause the interest rate to fall. C) A fall in the money supply shifts the LM curve to the right. D) For a given change in taxes, the IS curve will shift less than for an equal change in government spending.

Suppose England's economy is in long-run equilibrium. As a result of the coronavirus, the British government orders all non-essential businesses to close and issue “shutter in” and other “stay at home” directives requiring its citizens and residents not to leave their residences absent emergencies and/or to purchase food and groceries from markets (that is, people cannot, for example, go to restaurants, movies or sporting events and the like.) If so, then we would predict that in the short-run England's A. real GDP will fall and the price level might rise, fall, or stay the same. B. real GDP will rise and the price level might rise, fall, or stay the same. C. the price level will rise, and real GDP might rise, fall, or stay the same. D. the price level will fall, and real GDP might rise, fall, or stay the same
