Your current income is equal to 60,000. Your next period (future) income is known to be equal to 54,000. If your current consumption expenditure is equal to 48,000, what is your (current) level of savings? S = 12,000 If the real rate of interest is equal to 5%, how much will you spend on consumption next period (assuming that your current consumption is 48,000)? C² = 66,600

Suppose that permanent income is calculated as the average of income over the past five years; that is, YP = 1/5( Y + Y-1 + Y-2 + Y-3 + Y-4 ) (P1) Suppose further that consumption is given by C = .9 YP. a. If you have earned $20,000 per year for the past 10 years, what is your permanent income? b. Suppose that next year (period t + 1) you earn $30,000. What is your new YP ?
Suppose Dariya is a fan of young-adult fiction and buys only young-adult books. Dariya deposits $4,000 into a savings account that pays an annual nominal interest rate of 5%. Assume this interest rate is fixed, and so it will not change over time. On the day she makes her deposit, suppose that a young-adult book has a price of $10.00. Initially, Dariya's $4,000 deposit has a purchasing power of young-adult books. For each of the annual inflation rates given in the following table, first determine the new price of a young-adult book, assuming it rises at the rate of inflation. Then enter the corresponding purchasing power of Dariya's deposit after one year in the first row of the table for each inflation rate. Finally, enter the value for the real interest rate at each of the given inflation rates. Hint: Round your answers in the first row down to the nearest young-adult book. For example, if you find that the deposit will cover 20.7 young-adult books, you would round the purchasing…
Assume that in this economy consumption (C) is given by the equation C = 600 + 0.6(Y – T). Investment (I) is given by the equation I = 2,000 – 100r, where r is the real rate of interest in percent terms. Taxes (T) are 500 and government spending (G) is also 500. What are the values of private saving, public saving, and national saving?
Harper is a short-lived human who only lives for two years: current year and next year. In the current year, Harper has an income of $189 and has to pay $36 in taxes. Harper expects that he can receive an income of $132 and has to pay $27 in taxes next year before he dies. The real interest rate between current and next year is 7%. What is Harper's lifetime wealth (in $)? Round your answer to at least 2 decimal places

Hello! I need help with this question (in the screen shot). Thank you!
The table given below shows an economy's demand for loanable funds and supply of loanable funds schedules when the government's budget is balanced. Real Interest rate (% per year) Loanable fund demanded Loanable fund supplied (Trillian of 2002 $) (Trillian of 2002 $) 8.5 5.5 8.0 6.0 75 6.5 7.0 7.0 6.5 7.0 9. 6.0 8.0 10 5.5 8.5 a. If the government has a budget surplus of $1 trillion, what are the real interest rate, the quantity of investment, and the quantity of private saving? Is there any crowding out in this situation? b. If the government has a budget deficit of $1 trillion, what are the real interest rate, the quantity of investment, and the quantity of private saving? is there any crowding out in this situation? c. If the government has a budget deficit of $1 trillion and the Ricardo-Barro effect occurs, what are the real interest rate and the quantity of investment?
Assume an economy with 1000 consumers. Each consumer has income in the current period of 50 units and future income of 60 units, and pays a lump-sum tax of 10 in the current period and 20 in the future period. The market real interest rate is 8%. Of the 1000 consumers, 500 consume 60 units in the future, while 500 consume 20 units in the future. a) Determine each consumer's current consumption and current saving. b) Determine aggregate private saving, aggregate consumption in each period, government spending in the current and future periods, the current-period government deficit, of the quantity of debt issued by the government in the current period. c) Suppose that current taxes increase to 15 for each consumer. Repeat parts (a) and (b) and explain your results.
