fasr
Consider an economy where the aggregate planned expenditure (AE) components are given by:
Consumption (C) = 1000 + 0.8Y
Investment (I) = 200
Government Expenditure (G) = 250
Exports (Ex) = 400
Imports (Im) = 200 + 0.133Y
Write the AE equation (simplified).
Identify the autonomous component and the induced component.
Graph the AE curve.
Find and identify on the graph the equilibrium expenditure.
Show on your graph the effect of an increase of 60 in government expenditure and find the new equilibrium expenditure.
Find the expenditure multiplier.
