Suppose that for a particular economy and period, investment was equal to 200, government expenditure was equal to 100, net taxes were fixed at 150, and consumption (C) was
given by the consumption function
C = 20 + 0.6YD
where YD is disposable income and Y is GDP.
a. What is the level of equilibrium income (Y) ?
b. What is the value of the government expenditure multiplier (Y>G) ? Of the tax
