Answer:
the marginal propensity to consume is 0.75
Explanation:
The computation of the marginal propensity to consume is shown below:
MPC = Change in consumption ÷Change in disposable income
where,
The Change in consumption is 1500
ANd, the Change in disposable income is 2000
So,
MPC is
= $1,500 ÷ $2,000
= 0.75
hence, the marginal propensity to consume is 0.75

Answer: $32000
Explanation:
The required reserves will be calculated as:
= Checkable deposit × Legal reserve ratio
= $80000 × 20%
= $16000
Excess reserves = $16000
Actual reserves will now be:
= Required reserves + Excess reserves
= $16,000 + $16,000
= $32,000
Answer:
B. $36 billion
Explanation:
Since we were asked to calculate Wages. We can't use the Expenditure method of GDP. Method to be used would be the Income approach. In doing so, the values of export and import would be excluded. Therefore,
Given that
GDP = 65 billion
Profits = 7 billion
Rent = 7 billion
Interest payments = 15 billion
Recall that,
GDP = sum of income earned (profits, wages, rents, interests)
Thus,
Wages = GDP - Profits + rents + interests
= 65 - (15 + 7 + 7)
= 65 - 29
= 36 billion
Hence, wages during 2011 was $36 BILLION.
Note: Parameters used are based on the information in the question. It is important to note that income earned when using income approach could be more than the 4 stated parameters of wages, rent, profits and interests.
