If the coefficient of demand for the SUV is 0.75 this means that it has a relatively inelastic demand (<1). This means that there is only a little change in demand when prices change. Elastic demand (>1) on the other hand has greater changes in demand when prices change; they have lots of substitutes.

So when the price of SUV rise by 15%, and it has a coefficient of 0.75, we can expect only 11.25% decrease in its demand. Still very small. This is because SUVs do not have many substitutes for it.

Formula: (x/15%)=0.75
Then simply solve for x -> x = (0.75)(0.15) = 11.25%

Inessa [10]

Explanation:

a. The computation is shown below:

As we know that

Multiplier = 1 ÷ 1 - MPC

1.5  = 1 ÷ 1 - MPC

So, MPC is 0.3333

Now the real GDP is

= Multiplier × Government spending

= 0.3333 × $70 billion

= $105 million

So the change in real GDP is

= $105 million - $70 million

= $35 million

b. The computation is shown below:

As we know that

Multiplier = 1 ÷ 1 - MPC

Multiplier  = 1 ÷ 1 - 0.6

So, multiplier is 2.5

Now the real GDP is

= Multiplier × Government spending

= 2.5 × $16 billion

= -$40 million

c. As we know that

Real GDP = Multiplier × Government spending

$280 billion = Multiplier × $70 billion

So, the multiplier is 4

Now the MPC is

Multiplier = 1 ÷ 1 - MPC

4 = 1 ÷ 1 - MPC

So, the multiplier is 0.75
