I don't think Krakauer was trying to completely discount this idea. Krakauer was pretty clear about the fact that Chris entered the Alaskan wilderness unprepared and under experienced. Krakauer spends a lot of time juxtaposing Chris's hero worship of writers like Thoreau and Emerson with the realities of living in the wild. I think that Krakauer was trying to say there was more to Chris McCandless than his ill-fated trip into the Alaskan wildernedd. Chris had personality traits, counter-cultural or otherwise, that we could all learn from.

Assuming no change in government spending, an increase in taxes of $80 billion with an MPC of 0.50 will subtract a total of $___
NISA [10]

Answer:

A total of $50 billion will be subtracted from the economy after the multiplier effect

Explanation:

Given:

MPC = 0.5

Taxes = $80 billion

First, we calculate the Multiplier

Multiplier = 1 ÷ (1 - MPC)

Multiplier = 1 ÷ (1 - 0.5)

Multiplier = 1 ÷ 0.5

Multiplier = 2

Since the initial tax is $80 billion and the multiplier is 2; this implies that

2 * $80billion

= $160 billion

Multiplier Effect = $160 billion - $80 billion

Multiplier Effect = $80 billion
