Economics Government spending in one-period closed-economy model Assume a one-period closed-economy model with Consumer, Firm and Government. Consumer's utility maxi- mization problem over consumption c and leisurel is given as: max U (c,1) subject to budget constraint = wh - 1] + -T And firm's profit maximization problem is given as max T = zN" – we where N = h - 1.

In particular draw the indifference curve, and production possibilities frontier onto {c,l}- space. Show where the equilibrium is. Q2 Characterize graphically the equilibrium effects of a positive government spending shock (an increase in G) Q3 Assume a natural logarithmic utility function U(c,l) = In c +a lnl where a > 0. Solve the equilibrium of this economy analytically. What is the response of c to an increase in G? (hint: take partial derivative)

Hello, this is the same answer that was copied and pasted from all the other answers. There should be a difinitive answer saying what the allocative efficeincy is in 2023 and what the deadweight loss is.
a) Derive the intertemporal budget constraints of consumers and government. b) Assume that zt = z for all t and u(c) = log(c). Characterize the competitive equilibrium.
Please solve for the question (3) I will be very very appreicate!!
Suppose that the government feels sad for athletes and decides to subsidize retired athletes when they’re old. This can’t be free! In order to pay athletes the subsidy G in period 2, the government taxes everyone the amount T in period 1. Note that you pay this whether you go pro or not. Furthermore, the government balances its budget such that G=T. 8. Derive the new intertemporal budget constraints for the pro and non-pro cases in terms of r, C, Y, S, and T. 9. Briefly and intuitively, are you more or less likely to go pro under this government policy, and why? If you are an athlete, how much of your tax T will the government eventually ‘return’ to you?
Suppose the following model of govemment efficiency. Ublity function over consumption of private goods (C) and pubic goods (G) is such that this country desires to have 2 units of consumption good per each unit of public good Exogenous Income: Y= 20 Lump-sum taxT Govermment eficiency: a (This measures the number of public goods that can be produced from one unit of private consumption good) it the optimai lump-sum tax, T. that maximizes the representative consumer's utity and balance the government budget, is 10, then what is the value govemment eficiency. g? OA 1/3 OB 05 Oc. 02 OD. 23 OE none of the above
Consider the possibility that government spending increases produc- tivity so that with lump sum taxes after an increase in government spending the original equilibrium level of consumption and leisure is still just affordable. (That is this point lies on the frontier of both the before and after PPFs. Be careful to make sure your drawing has this very unusual feature.) How will an increase in government spending affect consumption, hours worked, output and welfare?
Suppose that Katie and Kelly each expect to receive $500 worth of marginal benefits from a proposed new recreation center, whereas Kerry expects to receive only $100 worth. If the proposed tax levied on each for the center would be $450, a majority vote will Multiple Choice pass this project. defeat this project and resources will be underallocated to it. defeat this project. pass this project and resources will be efficiently allocated to it.
