Answer: Marginal propensity to consume = $0.60

              Spending multiplier = $2.5

Explanation: The MPC can be calculated using following equation :-

MPC=\frac{change\:in\:consumption}{change\:in\:spending}

MPC=\frac{\$0.60}{\$1}

               = 0.60

Similarly, we can calculate spending multiplier as :-

Spending\:multiplier\:=\:\frac{1}{1-MPC}

Spending\:multiplier\:=\:\frac{1}{1-0.60}

                                            = $2.5

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

$175,808

Explanation:

P=R (1-(1+i)^-n)/i

Where P=780,000*90%=$702,000

R=?

i=8%

N=5 years

By putting above values in formula, we get

P=R(1-(1+.08)^-5)/.08

702,000=R*3.993

R=702,000/3.993

R=$175,808

<h2>What is Structural unemployment?</h2>

A mismatch between the skills of the jobless and the jobs that are available is referred to as structural unemployment. It differs from cyclical unemployment in that it results from factors other than the business cycle. 1 It happens when an underlying economic shift makes it challenging for some people to find work. It is more difficult to reverse than other forms of unemployment.
