a) Given the following simple Keynesian Model: Y = C + I + G + X-M, where Consumption schedule is given as C= 100 +0.75Y Investment (I) = 50 Government (G) = 100 and Net Export (X-M) = 20 i. Calculate the Equlibrium Level of Income ii. Calculate the size of Consumption at the Equilibrium Level
The simple (fixed r, fixed P, fixed W) Keynesian model C=300+0.75 YD I=310 =300+0.75(Y-T) G=160 T=200 C: consumption function YD: disposable income I: investment. G: government spending T: Taxes. What is equilibrium income ($output),Ye? a) 1,227 b) 9,200 c) 2,080 d) 3,680 e) none of the above
It is found that the consumption function for the economy is C = 50 + 0.8 Y d . Current level of output is 8800 and the potential GDP is 9000. Assuming the Keynesian view of the short run, answer the following questions. Illustrate this economy using a carefully labeled diagram. What is a larger concern for this economy: unemployment or inflation? If the economic policy makers want to bring the level of output to the potential GDP by changing the government expenditures (G), how much do they need to change G? Be sure to indicate whether the change is an increase or decrease. True or False and explain: If the policy in part c was successful, the unemployment rate will be zero.
In the Keynesian model, is aggregate expenditure (AE) exceeds total production an unintended _________ will occur and business will __________. a) inventory reduction; increase production b) inventory reduction; decrease production c) inventory reduction; not change production d) inventory accumulation; decrease production e) inventory accumulation; increase production
In the Keynesian macroeconomic model, the equation for the savings function is given as: S = -420 + 1/4Y. Based on this information, which of the following statements is correct? (1) The marginal propensity to consume is 1/4;(2) The marginal propensity to save is -420; (3) At an income level of R1 000, the value of savings is 250;(4) At an income level of R1 000, the level of savings is -170.
In the Keynesian cross model, assume that the consumption function is given by C = 20 + 0.8(Y- T). Planned investment is 200; government purchases and taxes are both 400. There is no foreign trade. An economist has claimed that the full employment level of output is 2,400. How much should the government expenditure or taxes rise or fall to achieve full employment?
In the Keynesian model, the consumption function is C = 0.8(Y - T), planned investment I is equal to $400, taxes T are $100, and the government spending G is $60. Suppose the current level of output is. Y = $1,850. Are firms in this economy experiencing an unexpected change in inventory? If yes, by how much? %3D
In the simple Keynesian model, a $1bn decrease in net taxes (T) will lead to an increase in output of 2) _____, other things equal. A) $1bn B) more than $1bn C) less than $1bn D) $0
Use the Keynesian Model to answer this set of questions. Suppose that in the economy under consideration the consumption function can be written as C=200+.8(Y-T). Furthermore, you know that taxes are autonomous and equal to $10. Now, suppose that investment spending is equal to $50 at every level of disposable income and government spending is constant and equal to $100 at every level of disposable income, suppose that (X-M) is constant and equal to $20 at every level of disposable income. (a)Draw a graph of the consumption function with respect to disposable income. Measure/show consumption spending on the vertical axis and disposable income on the horizontal axis (b) Calculate equilibrium national income Y, from the information given. (c) From the information given above is the government running a deficit or surplus budget? Explain why. (d) Full employment output in this economy (Y) is equal to $2000 what do you predict is happening to inventories if the full employment level of…
