If output is above the level of spending balance, then A income will decrease. income will increase. C the marginal propensity to consume will increase. D the marginal propensity to consume will decrease.

Explain the effects of the following actions on equilibrium income, assuming that the marginal propensity to consume is 0.8 A. Government purchases rise by $40 billion B. Taxes fall by $40 billion.

I got this one wrong, could you tell me the correct one? thank you

The classification of government spending as an investment or having an investment-effect depends on: a. How the spending affects current consumption. b. How the spending affects future productivity. c. How the spending affects current stock prices. d. How the spending affects future stock prices.

The fact that marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is larger than 0 means that  a. Consumption will decrease following a decrease in current income  b. Consumption will increase following a decrease current income  c. Consumption will increase following a decrease in future income  s. Consumption will decrease following as increase in current income

K The following equations describe consumption, investment, government spending, taxes, and net exports in the country of Economika. In Economika, equilibrium GDP is equal to $. (Round your asnwer the nearest dollar.) If real GDP in Economika is currently $4,850, which of the following is true? A. There will be an unplanned decrease in inventories, and real GDP will increase next period. OB. There will be an unplanned increase in inventories, and real GDP will increase next period. OC. There will be an unplanned decrease in inventories, and real GDP will decrease next period. O D. There will be an unplanned increase in inventories, and real GDP will decrease next period. OE. There will be no unplanned change in inventories, and real GDP will stay the same next period. C=200+0.80(Y-T) 1=400 G=350 T=350 X = 100

The tax rate is 0.4. The marginal propensity to import is 0.5 . When real GDP increases from $20,000 to $20,198, consumption increases from $18,000 to $18,050. What is the marginal propensity to consume?

Economics

What will be the impact on the spending multiplier if the marginal propensity to save (MPS) increases? A.The spending multiplier will increase. B.The spending multiplier will remain unaffected. C.The spending multiplier will decrease. D.The impact on the spending multiplier cannot be determined.

Question 21 Households change their spending by $10 billion due to a decrease in net wealth. The country's marginal propensity to consume is 0.8. What impact will this have on real GDP? Consumption spending will increase by $10 billion Investment spending will decrease by $50 billion Consumption spending will increase by $50 billion Consumption spending will decrease by $50 billion O Consumption spending will decrease by $10 billion O ooo O
