Suppose the components of planned expenditure are given as follows:
C = Ĉ + a(Y – Ť)
I = Î + bY
G = Ĝ
T = Ť
where hats indicate that a variable is autonomous and a and b are, respectively, the marginal propensity to consume and the marginal propensity to investment. Solve for the autonomous consumption multiplier. Does it rise or fall when b > 0? In words, explain the logic of this finding.

Suppose the consumption function is given by C = 100 + 0.75(Y-T). Investment is 50, government expenditure is 200, taxes are 250. What is the marginal propensity to consume in this case? What does it mean economically (1 points) What are the autonomous components here? (0.5 point) What is the equilibrium income? Also, calculate consumption. (1 point) Draw a labelled graph to show the equilibrium income. (1.5 points) Suppose investment spending increases to 100. What is the effect of this change on...

Consider an economy with the following data: Consumption expenditure = $271,650.0 million Planned investment = $218,972.0 million Government expenditure = $58,666.0 million Export expenditure = $940,148.0 million Import expenditure = $820,652.0 million Autonomous taxes = $306,700.0 million Income tax rate = 20% Marginal propensity to save = 0.6 Marginal propensity to import = 0.1 Calculate the level of total savings when the level of income equals $620,240 million (solve to one decimal point).

10.) An economy has a marginal propensity to consume and Y* , income-expenditure equilibrium GDP, equals $500 billion. Given an autonomous increase in plannėd investment of $10 billion, show the rounds of increased spending that take place by completing the accompanying table. The first and second rows are filled in for you. In the first row the increase of planned investment spending of $10 billion raises real GDP and YD by $10 billion, leading to an increase in consumer spending...

An economy is initially at full employment, but a decrease in planned investment spending (a component of autonomous expenditure) pushes the economy into recession. Assume that the marginal propensity to consume (mpc) of this economy is 0.75 and that the multiplier is 4 a. How large is the recessionary gap after the fall in planned investment? The recessionary gap is times the size of the fall in planned investment. b. By how much would the government have to change its...
