In the fall of the year 2021, Narnia witnesses exceptionally good weather conditions which are so conducive to agriculture on the magical lands, that the average food grain harvested in summer 2021 is substantially higher than the usual amount. What is your prediction for Narnia’s fawn-society in terms of their standards of living (which depend on average food-grain produced in the economy) and population? Is this in sync with the Malthusian hypothesis about standards of living?
Explain your prediction and how these relate to the Malthusian prediction, as well as the reason that drives these similarities or differences.
Consider a Keynesian model:
Full employment output = R100 million
Tax rate = 0,25
Investment = R40 million
Autonomous consumption = R30 million
Marginal propensity to consume = 0,8
The value of the multiplier is …
[1] 2
[2] 1.67
[3] 2.5
[4] 4
The equilibrium level of income is …
[1] R70 million.
[2] R175 million.
[3] R280 million.
[4] R140 million.
To bring about full employment, government spending should be …
[1] -R30 million.
[2] -R72 million.
[3] R30 million.
[4] R75 million.
Does the Keynesian explanation of the relationship between output and price-level hold in the long run
equilibrium?
What might Keynesian policy maker recommend to bring the economy back to original equilibrium?
Will this policy be successful?
Will a classical policy maker agree with Keynes recommended policy? Explain.
