Answer:
Missing word in 1. <em>"Assume the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.75."</em>

1. Using the ffg formula to calculate the effect of real GDP
Real GDP = [1/1-MPC]*Government purchase
= [1 / 1 - 0.75]*60,000
= (1/0.25)*60,000
= 4*60,000
= $240,000
Thus, the total change in real GDP is $240,000, it means the real GDP increases by $240,000
2. Real GDP = (MPC/1-MPC)*Government spending
= 0.75/1-0.75*60,000
= 0.75/0.25 * 60,000
= $180,000
Thus, the total change in real GDP is $180,000, it means the real GDP increases by $180,000
3. Thus, from the calculation, it is clear than an increase in government transfers or taxes as opposed to an increase in government purchases of goods and services will result in a smaller eventually effect on real GDP.
