Assume: Y= C + I + G + NX C = 400 + (0.8)YD Io = 200 G = 300 + (0.1)(Y* - Y) YD = Y - TA + TR NXo = - 40 TA = (0.25)Y TRo = 50 From the model above you can see that government purchases (G) are counter-cyclical, that is, G is increased as national income decreases. If you compare this specification of G with one that has a constant level of government spending (for example, Go = 300), how would the value of the expenditure multiplier differ?

COURSE: MACROECONOMICS - IS-LM and/or MUNDELL FLEMING MODELS Refer to 2 different models (and/or conditions) under which an increase in the amount of money circulating in the economy has a NULL impact on GDP. Then, refer to 2 different models (and/or conditions) under which an increase in the amount of money circulating in the economy has a MAXIMUM impact on GDP. EXPLAIN very briefly the mechanism by which each model generates that NULL or MAXIMUM impact on GDP. Hint: 2 conditions under increase of M (money) and how impact null (zero) and maximum on GDP. Example, considering both fiscal or monetary policies or liquidity trap model. Please graph and explain on detail both cases.
Assume the following model of the expenditure sector: S=C+I+G+Nx TR=100 C=420+(4/5)YD I=160 G=180 Nx=-40 YD=Y+TR-TA TA=(1/6)Y Assume you increase both government purchases (G) and taxes (TA) by the same lump sum of deltaG=deltaTA=+300. Would this be sufficent to reach the full employment level of output at Y*=2700? Why or why not?
