14. If we observe that interest rates rise but real investment spending still increases , this implies that IS curve shifted to the right. Hence,option(D) is correct.
15. Multiplier = 1/(1-MPC)= 20
This means MPC = 0.95
So, MPS = 1-MPC = 1-0.95 = 0.05
And Income increases by $1000
This implies saving will increase by (0.05)(1000)= $50.

QUESTION 3 An increase in planned real investment spending causes O a shift of the C+I+ G+X curve and a movement along the aggregate demand curve. O a shift of the C + I+ G +X curve that causes the aggregate demand curve to shift. O a shift of the C+1+ G+X curve but has no effect on the aggregate demand curve. a movement along the C + I+ G+X curve and a shift of the aggregate demand...

10. Suppose that consumer spending initially rises by 7 billion for every 1 percent rise in household wealth and that investment spending initially rises (or falls) by 20 billion for every percentage point fall (rise) in the real interest rate. Also, assume the economy's multiplier is 5. a. If household wealth rises by 5% and the real interest rate increases by 1%, by how much would aggregate demand initially shift at each price level? By how much and in which...
What forces determine the level of interest rates? Be familiar with the National Saving/ Investment framework we used to model the determination of interest rates. What is crowding-out? What factors increase or decrease savings? What factors increase or decrease investment. Understand the arguments for and against Ricardian equivalence. Use the savings model we have developed to compare the effect on Demand and the real interest rate of deficit-financed tax cuts and government spending increases.
1.) If the marginal propensity to consume is 0.75 and investment spending increases by $200 billion, equilibrium GDP will increase by____. $350 billion $150 billion $200 billion $266.7 billion $800 billion 2.) AE = 3000 + 0.75*RGDP. Given this equation for AE, find equilibrium GDP $1,000 $750 $12,000 $2,250 3.) The four components of aggregate planned expenditure are the real interest rate, disposable income, wealth, and expected future income the real interest rate, consumption expenditure, investment, and government expenditures consumption...
