Why is anticipation a good thing during inflation? How does a change in disposable income affect the consumption schedule? If MPS is .2 and the change in disposable income is $400. What is the change in savings? Draw the consumption graph. What can cause the consumption and savings schedules to shift? What is the break-even point? How are the real interest rate and the level of investment related?

Consumer spending is linked to disposable income. The Trump Administration has proposed tax reform in early 2017 (please see a summary of the proposal at https://taxfoundation.org/trump-administration-tax-proposal/ ), included in the initial summary proposal is to lower the individual tax rate for top-tier earners from 39.6% to 35% and cutting the corporate tax rate to 15%. Explain how this change in taxes affects consumption, aggregate demand, and investment spending. With this in mind, should this be enacted?
