The town of Cypress Creek is preparing to go to war against the American government. To do this, it is building a giant satellite laser! To build the laser, the government of the town will resort to taxation to fund its expenditure. The initial economy of Cypress Creek can be expressed by the following agents:

Consumers, C = 25 + 0.95(Y-T)

Output, Y = 5000

Government expenditures, G = 2000

Taxation, T = 2000

Investors, I = 750-125r

Markets are fully competitive and the equilibrium condition for markets are:

Goods and service market: Y =C + I + G

Financial market: I = S

When it builds the Satellite, government and taxation change to

Government expenditures, G = 4000

Taxation, T = 4000

Hank Scorpio, the towns' founder, announces that "even by increasing government spending and

taxation, we are not worst off, as production has not changed!"

i) [2 points] check to make sure output does not change.

j) [2 points] find the consumption level in both scenario's (low and high government spending)

k)[3 points] who is paying for the burden of taxation? (how is this new spending/taxation being

distributed between investors and consumers)

l)[2 points] as the government increases its spending (G from 2000 to 4000) why won't output

change?

Assume that due to an increase in demand, the average domestic airline fare increased from $319.85 in the fourth quarter of 2013 to $328.12 in the first quarter of 2014, an increase of $8.27. The number of passenger tickets sold in the fourth quarter of 2013 was 151.4 million. Over the same period, the airlines’ costs remained roughly the same: the price of jet fuel averaged around $2 per gallon in both quarters, and airline pilots’ salaries remained roughly the same, averaging $117,060 per year in 2013). Can you determine precisely by how much producer surplus has increased as a result of the $8.27 increase in the average fare? If you cannot be precise, can you determine whether it will be less than, or more than, a specific amount?
