Answer:

  • 1800
  • 500
  • Spending multiplier =5 , Tax multiplier =4
  • new GDP =2000 , Increase GDP level = 11.11%
  • new GDP =1800 , Increase in GDP level = 0%

Explanation:

  • Equilibrium GDP = C+I+G+net export

C = private consumption

I = investment

G = government consumption

Net export = export - import

800+400+500+100 = 1800

  • Saving at GDP = (GDP-T-C) +(T-G)

(1800-400-800)+(400-500) = 500

  • SPENDING  MULTIPLIER = 1 / 1 - MPC

= 1 / 1 - 0.8 = 5

        TAX MULTIPLIER = MPC /  1 - MPC

= 0.8/1-0.8

=0.8 / 0.20 = 4

  • New equilibrium GDP = GDP + 200 = 2000

Increase in GDP level = (NEW GDP - OLD GDP / OLD GDP) *100

(2000-1800) / 1800 = 11.11%

  • New Equilibrium GDP = C + I+ G + Net export

(800-200) +400 +(500+200) +100 = 1800

Increase in GDP level = (NEW GDP - OLD GDP / OLD GDP) *100

There is no change in GDP.

Pavel [41]

Answer:

Common Stock                                  5,000

Additional paid-in Common stock  70,000

Preferred Stock                                15,000

Additional paid-in Preferred stock 22,500

Explanation:

For the common and preferred stock accounts, we multiply the shares outstanding by the face value.

The additional paid-in will be the difference between the par value and the market price of the share at issuance.

<u>Common stock</u>

5,000 issued shares x $ 1 par value = 5,000

<u>Additional paid-in</u>

15 - 1 = 14 additional paid-in per share

5,000 shares x 14 = 70,000

<u>Preferred stock</u>

1,500 issued shares x $ 10 par value = 15,000

<u>Additional paid-on</u>

25 - 10 = 15 additional per share

1,500 x 15 = 22,500
