Suppose that a closed economy called Cheeseland is in recession. The government is considering using fiscal policies to stimulate the economy. Assume that there is no crowding out of investment, the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.80, and shifting the aggregate demand curve rightward by $200 million would end the recession.

a) Determine the value of the multiplier.

Given the following information for the Macro Economy answer the following questions.

In this economy we have an MPC equal to 0.80, Autonomous Consumption of $600 billion, Planned Investment (I) of $1,000 billion, Government Spending (G) of $1,200 billion and Net Taxes (T) of $1,000 billion.

a) Fill in the missing data for: T, Yd, C, S, and AE (in that order in a table) for every level of Y given below (all the numbers are in billions).
