Answer:

Left by $400; Left by $300

Explanation:

Given that,

Marginal propensity to consume, MPC = 0.75

Government spending multiplier = 4

(a) If the government decreases its purchases by $100 million, then the magnitude of the shift in aggregate demand curve is calculated by multiplying the change in government spending to the government spending multiplier.

Aggregate demand curve shift left by

= Change in government spending × Government spending multiplier

= $100 × 4

= $400 million

(b) If the government increases income taxes by $100 million, then the magnitude of the shift in aggregate demand curve is calculated by multiplying the change in taxes to the tax multiplier.

Tax multiplier:

= MPC ÷ (1 - MPC)

= 0.75 ÷ (1 - 0.75)

= 0.75 ÷ 0.25

= 3

Aggregate demand curve shift left by

= Change in taxes × Tax multiplier

= $100 × 3

= $300 million

Which of the following is a likely reason for choosing FDI instead of licensing?
Romashka [77]

Answer:

The correct option is B

Explanation:

FDI is an investment in the business through an investor from another country and control is with the foreign investor over the company purchased.

Licensing means all the contracts to which the third part has granted or licensed any right to its subsidiaries or company.

So, the reason for preferring FDI instead of license is sharing the intellectual know how with the foreign rival might be risky as this is a limitation in licensing.
