An economy is operating with output $300 billion below its natural rate, and fiscal policymakers want to close this recessionary

gap. The central bank agrees to adjust the money supply to hold the interest rate constant, so there is no crowding out. The marginal propensity to consume is 0.75, and the price level is completely fixed in the short-run. (a) In what direction and by how much would government spending need to change to close the recessionary gap

Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation is shown below;

As we know that

Y/G = 1 ÷ (1-MPC)

Here

Y = $300 billion,

MPC = 0.75

So,  

300 ÷ G = 1 ÷ 0.25

G = $75

So the government should rise the spending by $75 in order to close out the recessionary gap

So, the government should increase the spending by $30 to close the recessionary gap.

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

There is not gain in this operation so the answer is $0

Explanation:

There are some journal entries that needs to be done to have a full picture of the statement

* Purchase

Fixed Assets                        690.000

Cash                                                        690.000

* Monthly depreciation

Since, the FA was depreciated during 8 years. Firstly you have to calculate the amount that can be depreciate on a monthly basis

Amount to be depreciated = (Cost of the FA - Salvage value) = (690.000-48.600) = 641.400

Then calculate the yearly depreciation

Yearly depreciation = ((amount to be depreciated/useful life) * years used) =

(641.400/10*8) = 513.120

then the journal entry to record the monthly depreciation for 8 years is

Depreciation expense          513.120

Acc Depreciation                                   513.120

* Post the Journal Entry to record the sell of FA

You have to reverse the Acc Depreciation and credit the FA

Cash                                     152.500

Fixed assets                                         690.000

Acc depreciation                   513.120

Loss on sale of FA                   24.380

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is Spot market.

Explanation:

The spot market or spot market is one in which both the transaction and the settlement of an operation coincide on the same date. Although it is considered cash market when delivery occurs up to a maximum of 2 days later.

In spot markets, transactions are usually settled within a day or two after the date of purchase / sale. This is what is understood as a settlement in D + 1 or D + 2. The transactions are also closed at the current price on the asset in question that exists at the time of the transaction. This is one of the main differences between the cash market and the futures market.
