Question
1. The government expenditure multiplier is the effect of a change in government expenditure (G) on goods and services:
a. An increase in aggregate expenditure increases aggregate demand (AD), which increases real GDP , which induces an increase in consumption expenditure (C), and which further increases aggregate demand (AD).
b. An increase in aggregate expenditure increases aggregate supply (AS), which increases real GDP, which induces an increase in consumption expenditure (C), and which further increases aggregate supply (AS).
c. An increase in aggregate expenditure decreases aggregate demand (AD), which decreases real GDP, which induces an decrease in consumption expenditure (C), and which further decreases aggregate demand (AD).
d. An increase in aggregate expenditure decreases aggregate supply (AS), which decreases real GDP, which induces an decrease in consumption expenditure (C), and which further decreases aggregate supply (AS).
2. How do banks create money?
Group of answer choices
a. Banks create excess/surplus reserves when they make loans and the new loans created are new money.
b. Banks increase reserve requirements for the new deposits created which are new money.
c. Banks print additional fiat currency notes which are new money.
d. Banks create deposits when they make loans and the new deposits created are new money.

- 4. Planned expenditure and income The following table shows consumption (C), investment spending (I), and government purchases (G), in a hypothetical economy for various levels of income. Also assume that there is an income tax rate of 25%, that base consumption is $100 billion, and that the MPC is 0.333, or 1/3. This economy is closed, with no international trade, therefore net exports are equal to zero and should not be considered. Use the given information to fill in disposable income, consumption, and planned expenditures in the following table. Income: Real Disposable (After Tax) Planned GDP Income C I, G Expenditures (Billions of (Billions of dollars) (Billions of (Billions of (Billions of (Billions of dollars) dollars) dollars) dollars) dollars) 100 50 150 100 50 150 200 50 150 300 50 150 400 50 150 500 50 150arrow_forward3arrow_forward34.With the additional leakages of imports and taxes in additional to savings in a public, open economy, how is the economy still able to reach equilibrium? 35.Compare and contrast the recessionary expenditure gap and the inflationary expenditure gap. 36.If there is a recessionary expenditure gap of $100 billion and the MPC is 0.80, by how much must taxes be reduced to eliminate the recessionary expenditure gap?arrow_forward
