This question requires you to solve a macro model algebraically. Reading the appendix to this chapter will help you to answer this question. But, just in case, we lead you through it step by step. The equations for the model are as follows: i) C = c + MPC × YD consumption ii) I = I0 investment iii) G = G0 government purchases iv) T = tY net tax revenue v) X = X0 exports vi) IM = mY imports a. Step 1: Recall that Y D = Y – T. By using this fact, substitute the tax function into the consumption function and derive the relationship between desired consumption and national income. b. Step 2: Sum the four components of desired aggregate expenditure ( C, I, G, NX). This is the aggregate expenditure ( AE) function. Collect the autonomous terms separately from the induced terms. c. Step 3: Recall the equilibrium condition, Y = AE. Form the equation Y = AE, where AE is your expression for the AE function from part (b). (Your autonomous terms can be collectively labelled A and the terms that…
