g $0.30. The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) for this economy is:
A) .3

B) .7

C) 1

D) 1.43

E) 3.33

and the oversimplified multiplier for this economy is:

A) .3

B) .7

C) 1

D) 1.43

E) 3.33

Suppose the government in this economy decides to decrease government purchases by $300 billion. The decrease in government purchases will lead to a decrease in income, generating an initial change in consumption equal to:

A) -$1,000 billion

B) -$90 billion

C) -$210 billion

D) -$500 billion

E) -$105 billion

This decreases income yet again, causing a second change in consumption equal to:

B) -$90 billion

C) -$210 billion

D) -$500 billion

E) -$107 billion

The total change in demand resulting from the initial change in government spending is:

(a) Marginal propensity to consume (MPC) = 0.7

(b) Multiplier of this economy:

     = 3.33

(c) Decrease government purchases by $300 billion,

Initial change in consumption = Change in government purchases × MPC

                                                 = $300 × 0.7

                                                 = -$210 billion

(d) This decreases income yet again, causing a second change in consumption equal to:

= Initial change in consumption × MPC

= -$210 × 0.7

= -$147 billion

(e) The total change in demand resulting from the initial change in government spending is:

= Change in government purchases × Multiplier

= $300 × 3.33

= -$1 trillion

A stockholder sold her shares and made a profit of $1,403. If that is a profit of 27%, how much were the shares worth when she o
tigry1 [53]

The worth of the shares when the stockholder originally purchased them is $1105.

<h3>What are shares?</h3>

Shares are fractional ownership interests in a corporation. For some businesses, shares are a type of financial instrument that allows for the equitable distribution of any declared residual profits in the form of dividends.

It is assumed that the purchase price of the share is $100. As the stockholder sold her shares for $1,403, making a profit of 27%, it implies that:

  127 = $1,403

∴ 100 = $1,403/127 × 100

        = $1104.72

Therefore, $1104.72 is the original purchase price of the share.
