1. Assume an economy with a Household Sector and a Business Sector. Household spending is given by C= 400 + 0.9Qd. Since there is no public sector, Qd = Q. Business sector spending is given as I = 1300. Determine the level of Autonomous Spending, the Spending Multiplier, GDP (Q), Consumption Spending (C) and Household Savings.
2. Now add a Foreign Sector where Exports are X = 1000 and Imports are Im = 500 + 0.1Q. Determine the level of Autonomous Spending, the Spending Multiplier, GDP (Q), Imports, Net Exports, Consumption Spending (C) and Household Savings.
3. Now add a public sector where Government Purchases are G = 2000, Transfer Payments are Tr = 2500 and Taxes are Tx = 500 + (1/3)Q. With the public sector Disposable Income is Qd = Q - Tx + Tr. Determine the level of Autonomous Spending, the Spending Multiplier, GDP (Q), Imports, Net Exports, Taxes, Disposable Income, Consumption Spending (C), Household Savings and the Deficit.
Please explain what each equation represents in the answer.
