Consider the Keynesian consumption function
Yt =B₁ + B₂x2+ + Et
(
where y, is per capita consumption, and x2+ is per capita income.
The coefficient ₂ is interpreted causally as the marginal propensity
to consume, and we expect 0 < ₂ < 1.
At the same time,
X2t = Yt + Z2t
where Z2, denotes per capita investment.
Assume for now that investment is exogenous and
Cov(Et, 22t) = E[EtZ2+] = 0

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given 

Keynsian consumption function 

yt=β1+β2x2t+εt                                 ...... (1)

At the same time x2t=yt+z2t             ....... (2)

We have to find the reduced form equation.

To find reduced form equation, we substitute value from equation 2 into equation 1
