Suppose the government raises its revenue by a net tax of 25 percent on income, t = 0.25, the marginal propensity to consume out of disposable (after-tax) income is 0.8, and the government has an outstanding public debt of 800. In addition, the autonomous expenditure by the household and business sectors (C0 + I0) is 270 and government expenditure is 450. What is the debt to GDP ratio? A) 22.22%. B) 33.33%. C) 44.44%. D) 55.55%. E) None of the answers is correct.

Suppose the government raises its revenue by a net tax of 35 percent on income, t = 0.35. The marginal propensity to consume out of disposable income is 0.85 and the marginal propensity to import is 0.25. Note: Keep as much precision as possible during your calculations. Your final answer should be accurate to at least two decimal places. a) What is the slope of the AE function? What is the size of the multiplier? Slope of AE = 0...

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...

Imagine the economy is defined by the consumption function of C = 140 + 0.9 (Yd) where 140 is autonomous consumption, 0.9 is marginal propensity to consume, and Yd is disposable income (after taxes) and Yd=Y-T, where Y is national income (or GDP) and T=Tax Revenues=0.3Y (0.3 is the avg. income tax rate). To find the macro equilibrium use the following equation Y = C + I + G + (X - M). Where C=140 + 0.9(Yd), I=400, G=800, X=600,...
