Answer:
(a) 5
(b) $150 million
(c) 45 million
Explanation:
(a) Multiplier = 1 ÷ (1 - MPC
)
= 1 ÷ (1 - 0.8
)
= 1 ÷ 0.2
= 5 ⇒ the value of the simple multiplier is 5.
b) If the autonomous expenditure is increased by $30 million then the total output will increase by:
= $30 million × 5
= $150 million
c) If the Marginal propensity to import is 0.3 then the import will increase by:
= 150 × 0.3
= 45 million
Answer:
decrease/decrease
Explanation:
The interest rate is a monetary mechanism that serves to keep inflation under control. Inflation is a monetary phenomenon, caused by excess currency in circulation. Thus, the more money in circulation, the higher the interest rate tends to be. Conversely, when the money supply is smaller, inflation will be lower. Consequently, the interest rate will be low. Similarly, when the money supply is high, spending on the economy increases (and causes inflation). When the money supply is low, less money will be in circulation and spending will decrease. Inflation will be low. And the interest rate too!
Economic Activities are the actions related to the production, distribution, and exchange of goods and services. So for an evening news bulletin on TV or radio, some examples are:
- The service of the reporters who research a story and check facts
- The cost of paper and materials used in the newsroom
- The equipment that establishes a TV or radio signal and broadcasts it out to people
- Cable service or radios that are purchased in order to hear/see the news
