Question
You are given the following income-expenditures model for the economy of Vulcan. C = 300 + .9Yd T = 200 G = 300 I = 250
1. What would the level of expenditures be if the economy were operating at $10,000?
2. Draw a graph that illustrates this.
3. Using your answer from above, make a forecast for the future of the Vulcan economy and explain your reasoning.
4. The policymakers of Vulcan are considering balancing the budget. What would have to change for this to happen?
5. Using the government spending and tax multipliers, explain how balancing the budget would impact Vulcan’s macroeconomy.
Explanation / Answer
1. AE= C+I+G
AE = 300+ 0.9Yd+250+300
AE= 300+0.9(Y-T)+250+300
AE= 850+0.9(Y-200)
AE= 850+0.9Y-180
AE= 670+0.9Y
As we know that the economy is operating at $10000
AE = 670+0.9 (10000)
AE= 670+9000
AE = 9670
