**Macroland Economic Scenario**The total expenditure in Macroland begins with these initial levels (in trillions of dollars):- Gross Domestic Product (GDP) = 10- Autonomous Consumption = 1- Investment = 2- Government Expenditure = 2- Net Exports = 0- Taxes (T) = 2Assume the Marginal Propensity to Consume (MPC) = 0.75.**Task:** Find the equilibrium level of income.**Answer Options:**- 14- 10- 12- 17- 27- None of the answers. Please select the option that represents the correct equilibrium level of income based on the provided economic data and assumptions.

Consumption function: C = Ca + MPC (Y -T) Where C is consumption Ca is autonomous consumption MPC is…

1. Aggregate expenditures and income The following table shows consumption (C), investment (1), government spending (G), and net exports (X-M) in a hypothetical economy for various levels of real GDP (Y). Assume that the price level remains unchanged at all levels of income. All figures are in billions of dollars. Compute aggregate expenditures for each income level and fill in the last column In the following table.

4. Planned expenditure and income The following table shows consumption (C), investment spending (I), and government purchases (G), in a hypothetical economy for various levels of income. Also assume that there is an income tax rate of 25%, that base consumption is $100 billion, and that the MPC is 0.333, or 1/3. This economy is closed, with no international trade, therefore net exports are equal to zero and should not be considered. Use the given information to fill in disposable income, consumption, and planned expenditures in the following table.
