Assume that GDP (YCCYTrIIrrTG) is 6,000. Consumption () is given by the equation = 600 + 0.6( - ) - 100. Investment () is given by the equation = 2,000 - 100, where is the real rate of interest in percent. Taxes () are 500 and government spending () is also 500.
National Saving (S) = Y- C - G
S= Y - [ 600 + 0.6 (Y-T) ] - 500
S= Y- 600 - .06 (Y - 500) - 500
S= Y- 1100 - .06 (Y- 500) - 300
National Savings (S) = .4Y - 800
Current Equilibrium for R= 4
Current Equilibrium for C = 3900
Current Equilibrium for I = 1600
Question 1. If Government spending rises to 1,000 what are the new equilibrium values for C, I, and R?
Question 2. Illustrate what happens to S, I, and r using the loanable funds framework.
