An economy is operating with output that is $40 billion below its natural level. And fiscal policy makers want to close this recessionary gap. The central bank agrees to adjust the money supply to hold the interest rate constant so there is no crowding out. the marginal propensity to consume 4/5 and the price level is completely fixed in the short run. In what direction and by how much would government spending need to change to close the recessionary gap? Explain.
Principles List 6: Principle 1. Explain what it means If The Marginal Propensity to Consume = 2/3 And draw a Consumption Curve with The Marginal Propensity to Consume = 2/3 principle 2. Define equilibrium in the Aggregate Expenditures Model or the Keynesian Model and illustrate the Equilibrium graphically Principle 3. Define the expenditures Multiplier and illustrate it graphically Principle 4. Distinguish between Fiscal Policy solution for a recession and Monetary Policy for a recession
Show effect of expansionary fiscal policy in the short run and medium run. AS AD model using ISLM model.
Suppose the government, in an effort to avoid an increase in the deficit, votes for a budget neutral tax cut policy. Assume the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is equal to 0.75 and taxes are cut by $15 billion. Round answers to the nearest billion, and specify decreases as a negative number. By how much will government spending change? change in government spending: $ What is the resulting change in the equilibrium level of real GDP? change in equilibrium level of real GDP: $ billion billion
The multiplier effect occurs when: Group of answer choices a. the planned spending in the economy changes. b. expansionary fiscal policy is implemented. c. contractionary fiscal policy is implemented. d. All of the options.

Using the AE model, show the economy in equilibrium. Then, show the impact of an increase in taxes to reduce inflation.Would the above be considered expansionary or contractionary fiscal policy? Assume the change in taxes above is $15 billion dollars and MPC = .90. What will be the change in GDP?
