Answer:
The level of saving = $450 billion - $400 billion= $50 billion
Marginal propensity to save = 1- marginal propensity to consume (MPC)=0.5
Expected consumption
MPC= change in Consumption/ change in income 200 billion * 0.5 = $100billion
Therefore consumption = 100 billion + 400 billion = $500 billion
Saving = $650 billion - $500 billion= $ 150 billion
Explanation:
Answer:
Tax Savings = 200
Explanation:
If Ward and June carry the bond, tax would be:
⇒ Interests * tax rate
⇒ 1000 * 32% = 320
They gift bond to their son, Wally, whose tax would be:
⇒ Interests * tax rate
⇒ 1000 * 12% = 120
The tax savings related to the transfer of Bond is:
⇒ 320 - 120 = 200
Answer:
Option c) how a consumer might trade off different levels of consumption of each of two goods, while staying at the same utility level.
Explanation:
This is the very definition of an indifference curve. The points in an indifference curve are the combinations of the quantities (level of consumption) of two different goods which will produce the very same utility to the consumer. The consumer will perceive any of those combinations as having the same utility for him.
For example, a usual graph of various indifference curves will look like the graph attached.
In this graph the combination of 2 pairs of shoes and 15 pants will be perceived as having the same utility as the combination of 5 pairs of shoes and 4 pants. Both are combinations in the same indifference curve, the green one, and the utility of any combination lying in that green curve will be rated the same: u = 1.
