melamori03 [73]

<span>The marginal propensity to consume is a metric that quantifies the concept of increase in consumption with an increase in income. Mathematically MPC is defined as:</span>

MPC = Change in consumption / Change in income

Purchase of goods and services is considered as consumption, therefore:

Change in consumption = $16 billion

In the government’s perspective, taxes are considered as income, therefore the problem ask us to find for the necessary change in tax collection to maintain equilibrium GDP. Substituting the values in the formula:

0.80 = $16 billion / Change in income

Change in income = $20 billion

<span>Therefore the government should increase the tax collection by $20 billion.</span>

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

A good has negative externality if the costs to third parties not involved in production is greater than the benefits. an example of an activity that generates negative externality is pollution. Pollution can be generated at little or no cost, so they are usually overproduced. Government can discourage the production of activities that generate negative externality by taxation. Taxation increases the cost of production and therefore discourages overproduction. Tax levied on externality is known as Pigouvian tax.

Government can regulate the amount of externality produced by placing an upper limit on the amount of negative externality permissible

A good has positive externality if the benefits to third parties not involved in production is greater than the cost. an example of an activity that generates positive externality is research and development. Due to the high cost of R & D, they are usually under-produced. Government can encourage the production of activities that generate positive externality by granting subsidies.
