Consider a macroeconomy where the current population is 0.8 million people. Gross domestic private investment is constant $2000 million while consumer expenditure is described by the equation: C = 540+ 0.8DI. The government is fairly active, with a total expenditure of $3500 million and net taxes of $2550 million. Further investigation of the macroeconomy reveals that imports are constant at $3000 million while exports are constant at $2000 million. Currently, the overall price level (GDP deflator) is 118 and the potental GDP level is $13.5 billion. (Question 1 of 7) What is the current equilibrium level of real GDP? (report your answer at 2 decimal places and in millions of dollars)
In this problem you will work with the IS-MP model to calculate a macroeconomic equilibrium using algebra. The steps are: 1) find the IS equation 2) find the MP equation 3) combine them by substituting the r value from the MP equation into the IS equation Assume C = 1 + 0.75Y - 0.5T - 25r, I = 19 - 75r, G = 12, T = 14, the average FFR = 0.05, expected inflation is 3%, the risk premium is 4%, and potential output is 80. What is the output gap in the macroeconomic equilibrium?
Consider the following model. Expenditure is given by: E = C +1 + G. The consumption function is specified as: C = c0 +cY. We assume a closed macroeconomics system so that: Y=E. If the model parameters are configured such that I= 500, G=2000, c0=1000 and c=0.8, what will the level of consumption expenditure, C, be equal to? a. 4,375 b. 15,000 c. 14,000 Cd. 14,500
A certain country's GDP (total monetary value of all finished goods and services produced in that country) can be approximated by g(t) = 2,000-420e 0.07t billion dollars per year (0 ≤t≤ 5), where t is time in years since January 2010. Find an expression for the total GDP G(t) of sold goods in this country from January 2010 to time t. HINT: [Use the shortcuts.] G(t) = Estimate, to the nearest billion dollars, the country's total GDP from January 2010 through June 2014. (The actual value was 7,321 billion dollars.) Xbillion dollars

Consider the following model of house prices: lhprice=β0+β1bdrms+β2llotsize+β3lsqrft+u The variables are defined as: lhprice = the natural log of the house price bedrms = the number of bedrooms llotsize = the natural log of the land or lot size lsqrft = the natural log of the floor space of the house in square feet. You may assume the Gauss Markov Assumptions hold. Which of the following will make our inference on the partial effect of the number of bedrooms on the house price less precise? a) A smaller variance of any unobserved factors captured in the error term, u. b) A larger sample size. c) More variation in the number of bedrooms across the observations in the sample. d) None of the possible answers describe something that would make our inference less precise. e) A higher correlation between the number of bedrooms and the floor space of the house.
Question: Suppose that the marginal cost of extracting a non-renewable natural resource is MXC(Q) = 10 and the marginal beneÖt of using the resource are MB(Q) = 90Q. In the context of a static model, address the following question: Calculate the efficient value of Q if the total stock of the natural resource is Q = 50: Provide a graphical representation of the solution. My Note: This is my first time resubmitting, I was told to confirm that MXC(Q) =10 is the correct form of the Marginal cost of extraction to answer this question correctly. I'm not sure but this is the way my professor asked his question.
Consider the basic Macroeconomic model involving: Private sector consumption: C = co+c1(Y-T); Y = GDP, T = Taxes Tax function: T = to+t1Y Business sector investment: I = io+i2r, r=interest rate Government spending: G = Go Exports: X = xo+x1x; x = Exchange rate of the dollar Imports: M = mo+m1Y+m2x; x = Exchange rate (a) Identify and explain the parameters: co, t1, i2, and m2. (b) Solve this model for the equilibrium GDP (Y*).

In an intertemporal optimizing model consumption, a consumer living from time zero (0) to time t has a longer utility: U (C)= ln C. The market interest rate is r and the consumer is assuming no inheritance. Derive the consumption relationship and the marginal utilities between two adjacent periods. Using a diagram, explain the time profiles of paths based on (i) above. Show that consumption is proportional to the present value of future income at time zero (0) at a given interest rate.

Consider the production function modelled by the following equation: Y₁ = AK₁-α(BH₂)ªL₹ where Kt is capital, Ht is human capital, Lt is the number of workers, B is a scalar larger than 0, A is the (constant) level of technology, 0 < a <1 and 0 <ɛ<1. a) Does this production function satisfy all the neoclassical properties? Discuss the meaning of each property intuitively and mathematically. t Imagine that parents invest in the human capital of their children up to the point where the marginal product of physical capital, Kt, is equal to the marginal product of human capital, Ht. b) What is the relation between Kt and Ht? Use this relation to write down total output as a function of Kt only. Q3(b) in order to make output a function of K alone, after establishing that H and K are proportional, should we also establish H=h*L to remove L from the equation? Or are we treating L and H as independent variables like we did for the previous PSET and question 3(a) above.
