Consider a closed economy. If today’s capital increases, y* will ___ and r* will ___.
increase, increase
increase, decrease
decrease, increase
none of the above
Answer - Option A
Increase , increase
Due to increase in the capital , the income will increase. Due to increase in income , the demands will increase and the supply will remain same . Hence the interest rates will rise.

Consider a closed economy operating according to the Classical
model. The production function is: Y = 40K^0:75L^0:25
Problem 1- Use the following information o answer questions 24 29 Consider a closed economy operating acoording to the Classical model. The production function is: 40K0.75し0.25 where K and L are the capital and labor used in the production of output Y The consumption and investment functions are: C 100 +0.8(Y-T) 1 = 1,450-20r where T is the amount of taxes and r...
7. Consider a closed economy where the marginal propensity to consume is 0.85. Technological progress increases GDP by 20 billion pesos. Expansionary fiscal policy results in a $10 billion decrease in tax revenue and a $12 billion increase in the government budget deficit. (a) Calculate the (dollar) change in government spending. (b) Calculate the approximate (dollar) changes in private, public, and na- tional saving (c) Will the equilibrium real interest rate increase, decrease, or stay the same? Use a supply-demand...
Consider the following static (closed-economy) version of the Classical model: Y = F (K, L) C = A + a(Y − T ), with A > 0 and 0 < a < 1, I = B − br, with B, b > 0, where A and B represent respectively the autonomous components of consumption (C) and investment (I). Assume the factor inputs, K (capital) and L (labor), are fixed in supply. Finally, assume that government expenditures (G) and taxes (T)...
Consider the neoclassical closed economy model: Y=COY-T)+1(t) + G Y=F(K.L) M/P L(r+z* Y) CY-T) is describing consumptions as a function of disposable income, Kand L are fixed and do not change over time, G and T are chosen by government. And are exogenous and fixed. 1- Suppose K 150, L=500 Y-2.5 K"L- C 12+0.7(Y-T) 250 G 250, T I60-400r P 1 a 0.3 a) Calculate GDP value: I Derive the equations for marginal product of labor & marginal product of...
Consider the following data for a closed economy: Y $12 trillion C $8 trillion G $2 trillion Spublic $-0.50 trillion T $2 trillion Now suppose that government purchases increase from $2 trillion to $2.60 trillion but the values of Y and C are unchanged. What must happen to the values of S and 1? O A. S drops by $0.60 trillion and I increases by $0.60 trillion O B. S and I drop by $0.60 trillion O C. S and...
Consider an economy in long run equilibrium described by the following equations: Y = C + I + G + NX Y = 5000 G = 1000 T = 1000 C = 250 + 0.75*( Y - T ) I = 1000 - 50*r NCO = 500 - 50*r Where r is the real interest rate (in % terms). Suppose G rises to 1250 without any change in T. Solve again for the equilibrium real interest rate and the rest...

Inflation targeting and the Taylor rule in the IS-LM model Consider a closed economy in which the central bank follows an interest rate rule. The IS relation is given by Y C(Y- T) I(Y,r) G Where r is the real interest rate. The central bank sets the nominal interest rate according to the rule i = i* + a(n° =- T*) + b(Y- Y1) Where T is expected inflation, T* is the target rate of inflation, and Yn...

B4. Closed economy Keynesian model: The aggregate demand-side of the economy Rigidia is well-described by a standard IS-LM-FE framework while the short-run aggregate supply side is characterized by (SRAS) aggregate output/income, Y is the full employment output level, P is the Here Y is realized aggregate realized price level, Pe is the expected price level and b is a constant that depends on the slope of the labour demand curve. Explain the effects of each of the following on the...
