In February 2020, 15,300 people were employed, 2,700 were unemployed, and 7,000 people were not in the labor force. During March 2020, 160 people lost their jobs and didn't look for new ones, 140 people quit their jobs and retired, 800 unemployed people were hired, 100 people stopped looking for jobs and quit the labor force, and 700 people entered the labor force to look for work. a. Calculate for February 2020 i. The unemployment rate ii. The employment-to-population ratio b. Calculate for the end of March 2020 i. The number of people unemployed ii. The number of people employed iii. The unemployment rate
Q (C ) . Suppose that economists observe than an increase in government spending of $6 billion raises total demand for goods and services by $16 billion. (a) If these economists ignore the possibility of crowding out, what would they estimate the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) to be? (b) Now suppose the economists allow for crowding out. Would their new estimate of the MPC be larger or smaller than the initial level? Explain your answer.

The economy is described by the following functions: Shown in Picture where ?t is the tax rate. Here, the amount of taxes collected depends positively on the gross income. Find the multiplier associated with government purchases. How does this multiplier compare with a model with lump-sum taxes? Why is it lower?
Suppose the government wishes to eliminate an inflationary gap of $100 billion and the MPC is 0.5. how much must the government cut its spending? b) what would be the effect of the government increasing taxes by this amount?
23) If the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.8 and if government spending (G) rises by $50 while investment (1) falls by $20, by how much will equilibrium income rise? (Jika kecenderungan mengguna sut (MPC) adalah 0.8 dan jika perbelanjaan kerajaan (G) meningkat sebanyak $50 manakala pelaburan (1) jatuh $20, berapakah kenaikan pendapatan keseimbangan meningkat?) $12 $30 O $120 $150
115.) If the marginal propensity to consume is 0.6, then according to the Keynesian Cross, the tax multiplier is -$3 -$1.5 -$0.6 none of the above
2. (a) Given the marginal propensity to import M'(Y) = 0.1 and the information that M = 20 when Y = 0, find the import function M(Y). (b) Given the marginal propensity to consume function C'(Y) = 0.8 + 0.1 Y-1/2 and the information that C = Y when Y = 100, find the consumption function C(Y)
. You are given the following data concerning Freedonia, a new republic. 1) Consumption is 200 when income is zero and the marginal propensity to consume is 0.6 out of every dollar increase in income 2) Investment function: I = 200 3) AE ≡ C + I 4) AE = Y A. Derive the savings function? B. Suppose equation 2) is changed to I = 150. What is the new equilibrium level of income (Y)? By how much does the $50 decrease in planned investment change equilibrium income? What is the value of the tax multiplier? C. Plot the savings function from a. on a graph with equation 2).
Suppose that autonomous consumption (a) is 300, private investment spending (I) is 420,government spending (G) is 400 , Net taxes (T) are 400 and marginal propensity to consume(b) is 80 %, and marginal tax rate (t) is 25 % . By using the above information: b) Suppose that the potential income level is 2500 in the economy. In this case, what kind offiscal policy you can use to reach the full employment level.
