Answer:
Explanation:
Effect of crowding out:
The crowding out phenomena describes the economic phenomena in which an increase in government public spending leads to reduced or perhaps may eliminate of private investment.
Multiplier:
The multiplier represents the ratio of income to investment change.
Given that:
$13 billion increase in government spending will lead to a $52 billion
The rise in demand for goods & service will be the value of multiplier which is
= 52/13
= 4
To determine the multiplier using the formula:
Multiplier = 1 /( 1- MPC)
4 = 1/(1 - MPC)
4 (1 - MPC) = 1
(1- MPC) = 1/4
-MPC = 0.25 - 1
MPC = 0.75
Marginal propensity to consume = 0.75
Depreciation Expense 3,060
Accumulated Depreciation 3,060
72,200-3,400=68,800/8yr=8,600*4yrs=34,400-72,200=37,800
37,800-7,200=30,600/10yr=3,060 annual depreciation
