1. Suppose a firm sells good X in a perfectly competitive market its per unit price is 11 birr and the total cost of producing good X is given by TC = 1/3Q3 – 3Q2 20Q + 100, then answer the following questions.
A Phillips curve shows that, in the:
long run there is a trade-off between GDP and prices.
short run there is a trade-off between unemployment and inflation.
long run there is a trade-off between unemployment and inflation.

Now we look at the role taxes play in determining equilibrium income. Suppose we have an
economy of the type in Sections 9-4 and 9-5, 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?
