The country is experiencing a serious rise in inflation which the government wants to control through fiscal policy. The Government will decrease spending by $20 million and increase taxes by $15 million. The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.80. What will be the effect on GDP and by how much?
During this time of COVID, many of us have enjoyed 'stimulus' payments from the US Treasury for amounts like $600 or $1200. In fact, every month I am getting a child tax credit in the amount of $700 (yes, I have a lot of kids!). How are these stimulus payments appearing in the GDP (if at all)? What specific component of GDP? What is the reason for these payments?

Derive the consumption function and use this relation in the aggregate demand function to derivean equation for the equilibrium in the goods market . Why the AD line is upward sloping?Suppose the government spending falls by 100 and in this case marginal propensity to consumeis 0.8. what is the value of change in output. Draw a diagram to show the shift in AD line due tothis change in government spending and output.
