Question
Consider a simple model like the one developed in this chapter. The following equations show the levels of desired consumption and investment. C = 200 + 0.8Y I = 100 where C is the desired consumption, I is the desired investment and Y is income. Complete the table to the right. (Round your responses to the nearest dollar.) What is the equilibrium level of national income in this model? The equilibrium level of national income for this model is $. (Round your response to the nearest dollar.) Equilibrium occurs at the level of national income where actual aggregate expenditure equals actual national income. desired aggregate expenditure equals desired national income. desired aggregate expenditure equals actual national income. actual aggregate expenditure equals desired national income. The desired level of savings at the equilibrium level of national income is $. (Round your response to the nearest dollar.)Explanation / Answer
C=200+0.8Y
I=100
AE= C+I
3300
b.
At equilibrium, Y=AE
Y=C+I
Y=200+0.8Y+100
0.2Y=300
Y=$1500 is the equilibrium level of national income
Equilibrium occurs when B) desired aggregate expenditure equals desired national income
Savings=Y-C
=Y- (200+0.8Y)
=0.2Y-200
=0.2*1500-200
S=100
Desired level of savings at the equilibrium level of national income is $100
