Other things remain unchanged, a country's Aggregate Demand is made up of $100 billion of consumption, $40 billion of investment, $10 billion of net exports, and $20 billion of government purchases. Full-employment GDP is $200 billion. To obtain full employment under these conditions, the government should: Select one: a.increasing corporate income taxes to discourage private domestic investment. b.reduce tax rates and/or increase government spending. c.increasing interest rate on government bonds to encourage personal saving.
Assume the following model of the expenditure sector: S=C+I+G+Nx TR=100 C=420+(4/5)YD I=160 G=180 Nx=-40 YD=Y+TR-TA TA=(1/6)Y Assume you increase both government purchases (G) and taxes (TA) by the same lump sum of deltaG=deltaTA=+300. Would this be sufficent to reach the full employment level of output at Y*=2700? Why or why not?
Consider a keynesian macromodel Y=(C0+G+I) / (1-c) where C0 is autonomus consumption, G is government consumption expenditure, I is investment expenditure, c is the marginal propensity to consume. Assume constant marginal productivity of labor. What will be the result of an increasing government consumption expenditure in this module, if not other paramiters are changed? a. Lower investment. b. Higher employment. c. Higher inflation. d. Lower employement.
Consider the following hypothetical data for the U.S. economy in 2020 (in trillions of dollars), and assume that there are no statistical discrepancies, zero net incomes earned abroad, and zero taxes on production and imports of net subsidie Category Value $1.3 Category Value Corporate profits before taxes deducted Proprietorial income Rent Interest $2.6 Exports 0.8 Net transfers and interest earnings 0.8 Nonincome expense items 0.8 Imports 8.1 Corporate taxes 1.2 Social security contributions 11.7 Government spending 1.9 1.6 1.7 Wages Depreciation Consumption 0.6 2.2 1.7 a.

2. Consider a Keynesian IS-LM model for national income: Y=C(Y-T) + I (r) + G L (r,Y)= M³ (b) IS: LM: where we consider Y and r as the endogenous variables and G, M³, and T as the exogenous variables. Find the effect of a lump-sum tax, T, change on r, i.e., Or/T, using the implicit function theorem.
Assume certain coutory economy consumption function =200+0.75(Y-T) given government purchase and Tax are 100 and investment function =100-25r real money demand =25y-100r money supply =1000 then find equilibrium income and interest rate when government purpose increase by 80 percent and tax increase by 70 percent draw IS and LM curve and by how much they shift ?
Consider a macroeconomy where the current population is 800 thousand people. Gross domestic private investment is constant $2500 million while consumer expenditure is described by the equation: C = 580 +0.8DI. The government is fairly active, with a total expenditure of $2000 million andnet taxes of $2550 million. Further investigation of the macroeconomy reveals that imports are constant at $3000 million while exports are constant at $2500 million. Currently, the overall price level (GDP deflator) is 118 and the potental GDP level is $13.5 billion.(Question4 of 7)Now, consider that the government decreases taxes by 7.5%. While the change had a direct impact on the economy, other market conditions led to an unanticipated change in the economy. Specifically, imports decrease by 7.5%. At the same time, given the birth rate, mortality rate, and net migration, the economy experienced a 0% change in its population.1. As a result of these events, what is the current equilibrium level of GDP?…
An economy is experiencing a high rate of inflation. The government wants to reduce consumption by $60 billion to reduce inflationary pressure. The MPC is 0.75. By how much should the government raise taxes to achieve its objective? Multiple Choice: Choose one. - $80 billion - $45 billion - $60 billion - $240 billion
The rate of output and planned expenditures for the economy of timbuktu are shown in the following table: Total Output(Real GDP in Billion dollars) Planned Aggregate Expenditures (Two-sector Economy) (in billions) 5,000 5,250 5,500 5,500 6,000 5,750 6,500 6,000 7,000 6,250 a. If the economy's full employment rate of output is 6.0 trillion, what will happen to the unemployment rate assuming that it will persist into future? b. What would happen to the equilibrium level of output/income if there will be an autonomous increase in investment of 250 billion?
suppose you are given a consumption, investment and government expenditure functions as C= 700 + 0.6Y , I= 360+ 0.3Y and G= 440 respectively in the initial year. additionally, suppose that last year's aggregate demand determines this year's production. if autonomous investment rises from 360 to 400 then what will be the national income in three years ?
Cd= 200+.8Y - 500r Id= 200 – 500r Real interest rate r in the equilibrium equals .2. What is the government spending G of this economy so that its full employment output of Y is 1000? Suppose M bar=8000 and r=.2. L(Y,r)=.75Y-250r. What is the price level P in this economy for Y=1000? Please draw your IS-LM curves in your graph. Use the graph to illustrate what may happen if the company had an adversary price shock.
Is the following true, false or uncertain? Assume that workers supply effort based on their expected real consumption wage and consume a basket with a non-negligible component of imported goods and services. The government in an open economy implements a contractionary fiscal policy (from an initial medium-run equilibrium) motivated, for example, by its desire to reduce national debt. This leads to lower real wages and higher unemployment in equilibrium. Hint: you may want to compare this with the case in which the initial two assumptions do not hold. Use graphs if possible.
