Exam 11: The Income-Expenditure Model

The multiplier that arises from equal increases in government spending and taxes is called the

Figure 11.3 -In Figure 11.3, if the MPS is 0.25 and the distance between points C0 and C1 is 200, then the distance between points y0 and y1 must be

If the marginal propensity to save is 0.20, then the value of the tax multiplier is

Assume that GDP = $10,000 and the MPC = 0.75. If policy makers want to increase GDP by 30 percent, by how much should they decrease taxes?

Which of the following causes the consumption function to rotate downwards?

The fraction of additional income spent on imports is called the marginal propensity to import.

Price level is held constant when moving along the planned expenditures curve.

-Refer to Figure 11.5. An increase in the level of investment is best illustrated by diagram

Raising the personal income tax rate rotates the consumption function ________ and ________ the tax-adjusted MPC.

The formula for the tax multiplier is

If the consumption function is C = 90 + 0.75y, then the marginal propensity to consume is

Let C = 300 + 0.75y and I = 200. Assume no government or foreign sectors. Investment needs to decrease by ________ to decrease equilibrium output by a total of $750.

Let C = 120 + 0.8y. Assume no government or foreign sectors. At the equilibrium level of income, y* = 200, the level of saving is
