C = 50 + 0.8Y is the consumption function that is consistent with the provided data. The MPC is determined by subtracting the change in consumption from the change in disposable income, which equals 160/200, or 0.8.

Marginal propensity calculation.

$200 billion less $0 billion equals $200 billion in changes to disposable income.

Consumption change equals $210 minus $50, or $160 billion.

MPC = Change in Consumption/Change in Disposable Income, which equals $160 billion/$200 billion and is equal to 0.8.

There is a 0.8 marginal tendency to consume.

Step 2

This is how consumption function is defined.

C = a + bY

Where,

a = Consumption at zero income level

b = MPC

In given case,

$50 billion would be consumed at a level of income zero.

MPC is 0.8

So,

C = 50 + 0.8Y is the consumption function that matches the provided data.

Suppose Kittyville's full-employment GDP = $600 billion, and the current equilibrium GDP = $400 billion. The MPC in this economy
s344n2d4d5 [400]

The type of expenditure gap that's illustrated in Kittyville's economy is a recessionary expenditure.

<h3>What is expenditure gap?</h3>

It should be noted that an expenditure gap is when the demand for goods and services is more than the production.

In order to correct the gap, the economy hired the economist who suggested that there should be an increase in government spending and decrease in taxation.

Also, the change in government spending will be:

= Change in income b× (1 - MPC)

= $200 × (1 - 0.9)

= $20 billion.
