- Why will a temporary tax increase be insignificant in reducing consumption expenditures by the amount expected a) Because people viewed the tax increase as permanent. b) Because people chose to increase their saving. c) Because people viewed the tax increase as temporary. d) consumption expenditures are not related to the level of taxation.The figure represents the consumption function for a consumer. The distance between C and D represents A. the amount of saving. B. the amount of autonomous consumption. C. the amount of dissaving. D. the point where saving equals zero.Explain what happens to consumption, investment, and the interest rate when the government increases taxes. Show graphically the effect of increased taxes when saving is not dependent on interest rate.
- What can we predict about the effect on consumption of an increase in government spending? A) Consumption will increase by an amount equal to the MPC times the change in real GDP. B) Consumption will increase by an amount equal to the MPC times the change in government spending. C) Consumption will increase by the amount of the government spending. D) Consumption will not rise as government spending riseWhich of the following statements is correct? The saving function and the consumption function have the same slope. The consumption function is the same in the short and in the long run. Disposable income does not affect the level of savings. The steeper the consumption function, the flatter the saving function.a. Suppose the government increases both taxes (7) and government purchases (G) by equal amounts. Assuming income (Y) is fixed by the factors of production, the change in national saving (AS) will be (MPC-1) * AT. (1-MPC) x AT. b. The larger is the MPC (the closer it is to 1), the will be the increase in the interest rate. will be the decline in investment, and the
