Assume the following macroeconomic variable ( in $ billion) for an economy: Y = national income = Aggregate Expenditures Aggregate Expenditures = Consumption + Investment + Government Spending + Net Export Assuming that the full employment level in $6,000 billion, determine the change in government spending needed to reach full employment. (Hint: calculate the current GDP, then calculate aggregate expenditures using national income of $6,000 and find the difference)

440

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the change in government spending needed to reach full employment.

At Y=6000,

C=300+0.64Y

C=300+0.64*6000

C=300+3840

C=4140

Second step

Imports=0.08*Y=0.08*6000

Imports=480

Aggregate expenditure=4140+800+700+400-480

Aggregate expenditure=5560

Full employment G=6000-5560

Full employment G=440

New G=700+440

New G=1140

Y=300+0.64Y+800+1140+400-0.08Y

Y=2640+0.56Y

Y=2640/0.44

Y=6000

Therefore the change in government spending needed to reach full employment must Increase by 440.
