What is the quantity of money in the economy?


Suppose the economy is operating at equilibrium, with Yo=1,000. If the government undertakes a fiscal change whereby the tax rate, t , increases by .05 and government spending increases by 50, will the budget surplus go up or down? Why?
Now we look at the role taxes play in determining equilibrium income. Suppose we have an economy of the type in Sections 10-4 and 10-5, described by the following functions:
C=50+.8YD
I=70
G= 200
TR=100
t=20
a. Calculate the equilibrium level of income and the multiplier in this model.
b. Calculate also the budget surplus, BS.
c. Suppose that t increases to .25. What is the new equilibrium income? The new multiplier?
d. Calculate the change in the budget surplus. Would you expect the change in the surplus to be more or less if C = .9 rather than .8?
e. Can you explain why the multiplier is 1 when t=1?

Table 2.1 contains information on three techniques for producing $15 worth of bar soap. Assume that we said $15 worth of bar soap" because soap costs $3 per bar and all three techniques produce 5 bars of soap ($15 $3 per bar x 5 bars). So you know each technique produces 5 bars of soap. LO2.3 a. What technique will you want to use if the price of a bar of3 soap falls to $2.75? What if the price of a bar of soap rises to $4? To $5? 


Where do I substitute the $2.75
