The graph represents consumption (C) as a function of disposable income (DI). Assume the consumption function is linear. What is the value of the marginal propensity to consume (MPC)? Round the value of the MPC to two decimal places. MPC = Consumption $1050 900 750 600 450 300 150 0 $150 300 450 600 C = DI C 750 900 1050 Disposable income
Assume a closed economy in which disposable income starts at 1,000 and increases by 500; consumption starts at 1,100 and increases by 300; investment spending is 1,000 and government spending is 500. 1. The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is equal to: 0.5 0.6 0.7 6 2. The multiplier is: 0.25 2 2.5 3 3.The consumption equation is: C = 500 + 0.6DI C = 500 + 0.5DI C = 100 + 0.75DI C = 100 + 0.6DI 4. Let ∆I = 1,000. What is the new equilibrium GDP" 7,000 7,500 2,000 8,500
We again assume asimple closed economy with GDP of 100 and:c0(autonomous consumption) = 20c1 (marginal propensity to consume) = 0.6I (investment) = 20.a) Now assume that c0falls by 5 (i.e. 5% of GDP), i.e. for any given level of output,consumption will fall by 5. Show the implied fall in the AD function in yourdiagram and show that output will fall by more than 5.b) Show that the multiplier is equal to 2.5, and hence that, in the new equilibrium,output will have fallen by 12.5 (i.e. by 12.5%)c) How big would the impact be if, say, c1 = 0.4 or c1 = 0.8? Explain the difference.
Assume a simple Keynesian macro model:AE = C + I C = 100 + 0.75Y I = 200i) Find the equilibrium level of income. Show the equilibrium on a graph. ii) Calculate the simple multiplier and find the effect on the equilibrium level of income of a change in the level of planned investment from 200 to 150 by using a multiplier.
Problem 1 Suppose the system of aggregate expenditures can be described by the following relationships and parameter values. C(Y – T) = 1200 + 0.8(Y – T) I(r) = 100 – 3r G = 200;T = 200; r = 5; Ex = Im = 0 1. In the consumption function, 1200 represents the portion of consumption that is not dependent on disposable income. Suppose something causes households to become concerned about their economic futures and this autonomous consumption falls to 1100. Find the new equilibrium level of Y (output/income).
Suppose the marginal propensity to consume equals 0.8 (i.e., c1 = 0.8). Given this information, which of the following events will cause the largest increase in output? Select one or more: a. Public spending, G, increases by 200 b. real GDP was larger than nominal GDP from 2002 to 2008 Public spending, G, increases by 150 c. Investment, I, increases by 150 d. Taxes, T, decrease by 200
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?
Consider a closed economy. Let Y denote GDP, C denotes Consumption, I denotes Investment, r is the real rate of interest in percent, T denotes Taxes, and G stands for Government Spending. Suppose that these take the following form: Y = 8,000.C = 600 + 0.8(Y – T) I = 2,000 – 100rT = 500G = 500. a. What is the marginal propensity to consume in this economy? b. What are the equilibrium values of C, I, and r? c. What are the values of private saving, public saving, and national saving? d. If government spending rises to 1,000, what are the new equilibrium values of C, I, and r? e. What are the new equilibrium values of private saving, public saving, and national saving?
A decrease in autonomous consumption will 1) shift the aggregate expenditure function downward. 2) decrease the marginal propensity to save. 3) shift the consumption function upward. 4) change the slope of the consumption function.
The following table shows consumption (C), investment spending (I), and government purchases (G), for some hypothetical economy at several levels of income (reported in billions of dollars of real GDP). Assume that in this economy, income is taxed at a rate of 25%, base consumption is $50 billion, and that the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.667, or 2/3. Further assume that this economy is closed, that is, there is no international trade and so net exports are always equal to zero. Use the given information to fill in disposable income, consumption, and planned expenditures in the following table. Income: Real GDP Disposable (After Tax) Income C Ip G Planned Expenditures (Billions of dollars) (Billions of dollars) (Billions of dollars) (Billions of dollars) (Billions of dollars) (Billions of dollars) 0 0 50 100 50 100 100 50 200 100 50 300 100 50 400 100 50 500 100 50…
Consider a hypothetical economy in which the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.50. That is, if disposable income increases by $1, consumption increases by 50c. Suppose further that last year disposable income in the economy was $400 billion and consumption was $350 billion. On the following graph, use the blue line (arcle symbol) to pict this economy's consumption function based on these data. CONSUMPTION (Bions of dollars) ) 700 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 -100 9 100 200 300 400 500 000 DISPOSABLE INCOME (Billions of dollars) 700 000 From the preceding data, you know that the level of savings in the economy last year was 3 economy is billion and the marginal propensity to save in this Suppose that this year, disposable income is projected to be $600 billion. Based on your analysis, you would expect consumption to be 3 billion and savings to be S billion,
The aggregate consumption function will shift upward if, all other things remaining the same, the marginal propensity to consume decreases. None of the choices given are correct the marginal propensity to save increases. disposable incomes increase
