Find equilibrium GDP using the following macroeconomic model (the numbers, with the exception of the MPC, represent billions of dollars):
C = 1,250 + 0.80Y
|= 1,250
G = 2,000
Consumption function
Planned investment function
Government spending function
NX = - 500
Y= C +1+G+ NX
Net export function
Equilibrium condition
The equilibrium level of GDP is $ billion. (Round your answer to the nearest billion dollars
Consider the macroeconomic model shown below:
C = 500+ 0.80Y
| = 1,500
G = 1,000
NX = - 100
Y=C+I+G + NX
