Suppose a closed economy with no government spending or taxing is capable of producing an output of $3,000 at full employment. Suppose also that autonomous consumption is $400, intended investment is $200, and on average households will save 25 cents of every additional dollar of income they receive. Calculate the following (express your answers as whole numbers without decimals, commas, dollar signs, or anything else). Multiplier: Value of output (Y) in equilibrium: Total consumption in equilibrium

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
Consider a hypothetical economy in which households spend $0.50 of each additional dollar they earn and save the remaining $0.50. The following graph shows the economy's initial aggregate demand curve (AD₂). Suppose the government increases its purchases by $5 billion. Use the green line (triangle symbol) on the following graph to show the aggregate demand curve (AD) after the multiplier effect takes place. Hint: Be sure the new aggregate demand curve (AD) is parallel to AD. You can see the slope of AD, by selecting it on the following graph. 118 114 112 110 108 106 104 102 100 H 100 105 110 115 120 125 130 135 140 OUTPUT (Bloof dollar) 15.0 The following graph shows the money market in equilibrium at an interest rate of 7.5% and a quantity of money equal to $45 billion. 10.0 401 Show the impact of the increase in government purchases on the interest rate by shifting one or both of the curves on the following graph. 7.5 25 0 15 Money Supply Morey Demand 30 45 60 MONEY (Billens of…
On the following graph illustrate the impact of a sudden decline in consumer confidence that reduces autonomous consumption by $50 billion. Assume MPC = 0.8.(a) What is the new equilibrium level of real output? (Don't forget the multiplier.)(b) How large is the real GDP gap?(c) What has happened to average prices?
Assume that marginal propensity to consume is 0.75. autonomous consumption is 100 units (consumption function therefore is as follows: C=100+0.75 Y) . Calculate Multiplier Equilibrium output if Y=100 How much does equilibrium output change if autonomous consumption increases by 50 to 150 units (Hint: use multiplier)
Given the information below, answer the questions that follow. C = $40 + 0.75Y I = $30 G = $40 X – M = $10 a) What is the equilibrium GDP? Explain why $550 is not the equilibrium. b) What is the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) in this question? (Explain) c) What is the multiplier in this question and explain the significance of the multiplier?
If the consumption function is C= $800 billion + 0.8 Y, Instructions: In part a, round your response to one decimal place. In parts b-d, enter your responses as a whole number. If you are entering any negative numbers be sure to include a negative sign (-) in front of those numbers. a. what is the MPC? b. how large is autonomous consumption? billion c. how much do consumers spend with incomes of $4 trillion? billion d. how much do they save? billion 100%
Suppose a closed economy with no government spending or taxing is capable of producing an output of $1600 at full employment. Suppose also that autonomous consumption is $120, intended investment is $160, and the mpc is 0.50. What is the value of output (Y) in equilibrium?
