Consider the following equations that describe a closed economy with no government. Assume consumption is represented by the following: C = 200 + 0.9Y. Also assume that planned investment (I) equals 300. Obtain the saving function for this economy. What are the marginal propensity to save (MPS) and marginal propensity to consume (MPC)? Write the equation for the planned aggregate expenditure. Find the equilibrium level of output and calculate the level of consumption and saving that occurs at the equilibrium...

Consider a hypothetical economy with autonomous consumption spending equal to 100 billion dollars, a marginal propensity to consume of 0.8

Consider a hypothetical economy with autonomous consumption spending equal to 100 billion dollars, a marginal propensity to consume of 0.8, private investment spending of 160 billion dollars, government spending of 140 billion dollars, a balanced budget, and balanced trade (i.e. exports and imports are equal). Write a short essay comparing the effects (1) on the government budget and (2) on the equilibrium level of income in the economy of (i) a 5 billion dollar increase in government spending and...
