The Image attached titled Table 1 is data for a hypothetical private-closed economy.
Use the information in the Table 1 to analyze aggregate expenditures (AE) model attached (Figure 1. Equilibrium in a Private Closed Economy).
Question 1
Identify the mistake and explain why the graph of the aggregate expenditures line does not correctly illustrate the economy's equilibrium.
Question 2
Chart the aggregate expenditures (AE) model in Excel using the data from Table 1: A Private Closed Economy.
Remember, the 45degree line (also known as the Keynesian Cross) is a tool that shows how differences in aggregate expenditures and real
So, the equations for the two are identical:
Y = C + I + G + NX, and AE (aggregate expenditure) = C + I + G + NX
For private closed economy the equation is:
Y = C + I , and AE (aggregate expenditure) = C + I
