Question

I WILL MARK YOU BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!
(i) The following information about an economy is given as under:
Yd= (Y-T)
C= 100+ 0.6 Yd
i= 100 Crores
G= 150 Crores
T= R100 Crores
(a)
Determine the equilibrium level of income and consumption.
What is the value of investment multiplier?
If G increases to 200 crores, what is the new equilibrium level of output?​

Answer 1

Answer:

As given in the examination problem, Equilibrium Income (Y) = Rs 4000 crore Autonomous Investment + Autonomous Consumption (A¯) = Rs 50 crore MPS = 0.2

So, MPC(b) = 1 – 0.2 = 0.8

(MPC = 1 – MPS)

AD = C + I

AD = C¯ + bY + I = A¯ + bY

= 50 + 0.8Y (A¯=C¯+I¯)

As we know, the equilibrium level of national income in two-sector model is determined where,

AS = AD

Y = 50 + 0.8Y

4000 = 50 + 0.8(4000)

4000 = 50 + 3200

4000 =3250

Hence, the economy is not in equilibrium.
