Sunshine is a small open economy described by the following long-run classical equations where Y is the economy's real GDP, T-taxes, G-government spending, NX-net exports, l-investment, C-consumption, r-domestic interest rates, r* - world interest rates. Y = 4000 G = 1250 T = 1000 C = 250 + 2/3 (Y-T) I = 450 - 25r NX = 1250 - 175epsilon r =r^ * =4 a) Required: Select the appropriate answer that represent [i] investment, [ii] national savings, [iii] equilibrium exchange rate and [iv] trade balance. b) Suppose the government of sunshine cut its spending to 2,000. Required: Select the appropriate answer that represent [i] investment, [ii] national savings, [iii] equilibrium exchange rate and [iv] trade balance. c) Now suppose the world interest rate falls from 8 to 3 percent, (G is again 2000). Required: Select the appropriate answer that represent [i] private savings, [ii] public savings, [ii] national savings, [iv] investment, [v] trade balance and [vi] equilibrium exchange rate
Sunshine is a small open economy described by the following long-run classical equations where
Y is the economy's real
C-consumption, r-domestic interest rates, r* - world interest rates.
Y = 4000
G = 1250
T = 1000
C = 250 + 2/3 (Y-T)
I = 450 - 25r
NX = 1250 - 175epsilon
r =r^ * =4
a) Required: Select the appropriate answer that represent [i] investment, [ii] national
savings, [iii] equilibrium exchange rate and [iv] trade balance. b) Suppose the government of sunshine cut its spending to 2,000. Required: Select the appropriate answer that represent [i] investment, [ii] national savings, [iii] equilibrium
exchange rate and [iv] trade balance.
c) Now suppose the world interest rate falls from 8 to 3 percent, (G is again 2000). Required: Select the appropriate answer that represent [i] private
