If the government cuts taxes by $40 billion, this puts more money in consumers' pockets. Given an MPC of 0.8, this means they will spend $32 billion

Evaluating :

(0.8 × $40 = $32).

The correct answer is an increase of $32 billion.

GDP:

Gross domestic product (GDP) is a measure of the final goods and services produced with a specific region over a specified period of time. It is computed as follows:

GDP = Consumption + Government Spend + Investment + Net Exports

What is Marginal Propensity to Consume (MPC)?

Marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is measured as the portion of an increase in pay that a consumer would spend on goods and services as opposed to saving. Essentially, it is measuring how sensitive consumption in an economy is to increases in income. MPC is important in economics because it illustrates the effect that increased government spending has on the economy.

At the beginning of the month, you owned $8,000 of General Dynamics, $7,000 of Starbucks, and $5,000 of Nike. The monthly return
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

= $406.6

Explanation:

To calculate return of portfolio we first calculate weight of each asset

this can be done by finding total investment and then dividing each asset by total investment.

Total investment = 8000 + 7000 + 5000 = $20,000

General Dynamics     8000/20000 = 0.4 = W1

Starbucks                    7000/20000 = 0.35 = W2

Nike                             5000/20000 = 0.25 = W3

Now for portfolio return we can use the formula

P(r) = W1 * (Return on W1 asset) + W2 * (Return on W2 asset) + W3 * (Return on W3 asset)

So,

P(r) = 0.4 * (0.0680) + 0.35 * (-0.0152) + 0.25 * (-0.0062)

This gives us

Total Return % = 0.02033 or 2.033%

Simply multiply this cumulative weight to total portfolio worth

Total Return in $ = 0.02033 * 20000  = $406.6

Hope that helps.
