## The Income-Expenditure Model Problem Set[1]

1. Consider the following information in the table below.
 Income (Y) Consumption (C) Savings (S) 1000 950 50 1100 1040 60 1200 1130 70 1300 1220 80

Given this data the consumption function can be written as:

C = _____ + _____ Y

1. Consider the following information for Slovenia.
 Category Amount Autonomous Consumption 250 MPC 0.9 Tax Rate 0.25 Investment 800 Government Expenditure 100 Exports 20 MPI 0.05

What is the equilibrium level of GDP in the income-expenditure model?

1. Consider the following information in the table below.
 Income (Y) Imports (M) 1000 200 1100 220 1200 240 1300 260

Given this data, what is Marginal Propensity to Import (MPI)?

1. Suppose that the level of income is $1000 and the tax rate is 0.1 %. Given this data, what is the level of disposable income? ### Use the following information to answer questions 5 through 8: Consider the following information for Slovenia.  Category Amount Autonomous Consumption 430 MPC 0.9 Tax Rate 0.25 Investment 800 Government Expenditure 100 Exports 20 MPI 0.05 1. What is the equilibrium level of GDP in the income-expenditure model? 1. Suppose that there is a decrease in Exports by$20. What is the new equilibrium level of GDP in the income-expenditure model?

1. What is the difference between the original and new GDP as a result of a decrease in Exports?

1. Suppose that MPC is equal to 0.8. What is the spending multiplier?
