board Aplia: Student Question × 2ctx-paulg3-00098quiz action-takeQuiz&quiz probGuid-Q4PLCOA8010100000042aeca30080000 same as in Test Yourself Question 4 except change investment to I -$1,100. Use the equilbrium condition Y=C+1+G + (X-IM) GDP on the demand side. the consumption function takes the following simple algebraic form: -300 orsr spending and total expenditure for each level of income, and then find the equilbrium level of GDP. (Hint: Remember that disposable income is minus taxes : D1 = Y-T Y-1 ,200 ) to find the equilibrium level of GDP on the demand side. Assume the price level is fixed. Remember from question 4 that 75DI. Using the following table, calculate the value of consumption GDP Consum Investment Government Spending Net Exports Total Expenditures 4,800 1,100 1,300 1,300 1300 -100 -100 -100 5.2001,100 5,600 6,000 6,400 6,800 7.200 1,100 1,100 1,100 1,100 1,100 100 1.300 1,300 1,300 -100 -100 100 The equilibrium value is the value found in the following table.

Explanation / Answer

The table has been correctly filled.

Equilibrium value is 6800

at this point point, income is equal to total expenditure.

Multiplier= 1/(1-c)

c= .75

Multiplier= 1/(1-.75)= 4

Gdp increases by 4(200)= 800

An increase in investment of 200 lead to an increase in equilibrium gdp of 800, demonstrating a multiplier in this economy of 4.
