2.

 The following equations describe the economy of Northern Illinois:

C = 400+0.8(Y-T)

T = 250

I = 700 – 40r

G = 600

(M/P)d = 0.5Y – 150r

M = 3000

P = 3.0

 

a. What is the equation that describes the IS curve? (Express Y as a function of r.)

b. What condition is satisfied along the IS curve?

c. What is the equation that describes the LM curve? (Express Y as a function of r.)

d. What condition is satisfied along the LM curve?

e. What are the equilibrium levels of Y and r?

f. Calculate the levels of consumption, savings, and investment.

3. Continue with the same equations.

a. What is the value of the multiplier which corresponds to the simple multiplier (m=1/(1-MPC))?

b. Suppose government spending rises by 100. How much would the simple multiplier predict that Y would rise?

c. Using the above equations, how much does Y actually rise when G rises from 600 to 700?
