? Scenario 1: Suppose savers either buy bonds or make deposits in savings accounts at banks. Initially, the interest income earned on bonds or deposits is taxed at a rate of 18%. Now suppose there is a decrease in the tax rate on interest income, from 18% to 14%. Shift the appropriate curve on the graph to reflect this change. This change in the tax treatment of saving causes the equilibrium interest rate in the market for loanable funds to fall spending to decrease and the level of investment Scenario 2: An investment tax credit effectively lowers the tax bill of any firm that purchases new capital within some relevant time period. Suppose the government implements a new investment tax credit. Shift the appropriate curve on the graph to reflect this change. The implementation of the new tax credit causes the interest rate to fall and the level of investment to fall Scenario 3: Initially, the government's budget is balanced; then the government significantly increases spending on…

7- We have the following data from the loanable funds market for Berberistan. Answer the following questions. Real interest rate Loanable funds Loanable funds supplied (trillions of dollars) demanded (percent per year) 3 10 4 4 5 8. 6. 6. 7 7 7 8 9. 9 4 10 a) What is the equilibrium real interest rate, total private saving and investment? (suppose that the government budget is balanced.) b) What will be the equilibrium real interest rate if the government's budget becomes a deficit of $2 trillion? What will be the private investment at the new equilibrium? Define "crowding-out" and tell if there is crowding-out in this case.
Suppose real GDP is $5,042 billion, taxes collected by the government are $534 billion, government spending is $846 billion, and consumption spending is $3,461 billion. What is the value of public saving? Enter a whole number with no dollar sign and please do not include the word billion. If appropriate, please enter a negative (-) sign.
Suppose there are two types of investment in the economy: business fixed investment and residential investment. Suppose that loanable fund market is in equilibrium and the government grants an investment tax credit only for business investment. How does this policy affect the supply and demand for loanable funds, the equilibrium interest rate and equilibrium quantity of loanable funds? Use graph to explain your answer.
