Differentiate between the expansionary fiscal policy and contractionary fiscal policy with diagram if the AS is vertical and positively sloped.
Define the tax multiplier and give the algebraic expression.
The main difference between variable taxes and fixed taxes is that unlike fixed taxes, variable taxes . The following graph shows the consumption schedule for an economy with a given level of taxes. Suppose the government implements a tax increase through a fixed tax. Use two green points (triangle symbol) to connect the two black points (plus symbols) representing the consumption schedule after the change in taxes. Hint: The new consumption schedule must pass through one point on the left and one point on the right. The blue line on the next graph represents the original total expenditure line for this economy before the change in tax structure. Use the new consumption line you just plotted to calculate the new total expenditure at two levels of real GDP and fill in the following table. GDP level Total Expenditure (Billions of dollars) (Billions of dollars) 10 90 Use the green points (triangle symbols) to draw the new total…
Given C=500 + 0.80Y, I = 100, G=100, and the government decides to finance G by also increasing taxes T=100, how much is the new equilibrium level of output with the tax? The government decides to also impose an income tax tY=0.25Y. How much is the new equilibrium level of output with the income tax? and how much is the value of the expenditure multiplier?

a) What are the three fiscal policy tools and how would each be used to counter a contractionary gap? b) True or False and explain: Fiscal Policy is effective at reducing the duration of an economic contraction. c) If the spending multiplier is 2.5 and the economy is in a $500 billion contractionary gap, how much should I increase government purchases to eliminate the gap? d) Continuing with c, if the MPC is 0.8, how much would I need to increase transfer payments to eliminate the $500 billion contractionary gap? e) True or False and explain: Households always react to tax changes in a predictable manner. Module 6: Deficits and the Debt. a) Distinguish between deficit and debt. b) Explain what crowding out is and why it reduces the impact of fiscal stimulus. c) True or false and explain: The national debt represents a threat of bankruptcy. (For d and e) Suppose the interest on the debt was $600 billion. If interest is paid domestically, 90% will be spent domestically (the remainder is…
Suppose there is a simultaneous increase in government spending (fiscal policy) and autonomous consumption, what would happen to consumption C. tax generation T and national income Y? C+ BT-bY = Co T-tY To -C+Y = Io + Go (National Income Equation) (Consumption Function) (Income-Dependent Tax)
Q39 which of the following is correct about the effects of tax Select one: a. Taxes affect the IS curve, as well as LM curve b. They reduce disposable income, so that there is less consumption at every level of Y c. An increase in the Tax is called a fiscal expansion d. An increase in taxes shifts the IS curve to the right
Consider the following model: Y=C+I+G, C=c(Y-T), I=i(Y,r) Analyze the effects of expansionary and contractionary fiscal policies and indicate them on a graph.
C = 600 + 0.8Yd , Yd = Y – T, Tg = 100, I= 200, R = 50, G = 350, X = 250 and M = 200 + 0.1Y. How much tax has to be reduced so that the national income will increase by 2000? Based on the answer in Question 2(a), if the government undertakes expansionary fiscal policy by increasing government expenditure by 400, calculate the new equilibrium level of income. After being at the equilibrium level of income in Question 2(e) above, if the government reduces the tax by 400, what is the new equilibrium level of income? Starting with the original information above, if the government runs a balanced budget i.e. increases the government expenditure and tax by the same amount (ΔG = ΔT = 400 which Δ means changes), calculate the new equilibrium level of income. Draw a diagram to show this situation
