Solution :

Current yield of the Bond if the bonds are selling at a price of $ 9980.

Current yield = annual coupon amount / current selling price

Current yield $=\frac{10000 \times 5\%}{9980}$

                     $=\frac{500}{9980}$

                     = 0.0501

                     = 5.01 %

The current yield of a bond if the bonds are selling at $ 9350

Current yield = annual coupon amount / current selling price

Current yield $=\frac{10000 \times 5\%}{9350}$

                     $=\frac{500}{9350}$

                     = 0.0535

                     = 5.35 %

If the MPC is 0.75 and there are no crowding-out or accelerator effects, then an initial increase in aggregate demand of $100 bi
umka21 [38]

Answer:

c. $400 billion

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what an initial increase in aggregate demand of $100 billion will eventually shift the aggregate demand curve to the right

First step is to calculate the GDP Multiplier

Using this formula

GDP Multiplier=1/(1-MPC)

Let plug in the formula

GDP Multiplier=1/1-0.75

GDP Multiplier=1/0.25

GDP Multiplier=4

Now let determine the shift in aggregate demand curve

Shift in aggregate demand curve=4*100 billion

Shift in aggregate demand curve= $400 billion

Therefore an initial increase in aggregate demand of $100 billion will eventually shift the aggregate demand curve to the right by $400 billion
