My friend Marie decides to set aside $200 from her paycheck every month. How will this affect her demand curve? (You don't have to use specific numbers, just explain) When Marie sets aside money from her paycheck, this is the same thing as a decrease in her income. Remember that when income increases, the demand curve shifts outwards to reflect the increase in spending. In this case, Marie's demand curve will shift inwards as she tries to economize more than usual. She will buy fewer goods, even if the prices don't change. Illustrate in graph
MPC. Explain in short.
Suppose there was a debate regarding how to spend $1 billion in newly found revenues in the budget. Suppose the most liberal Democrat suggests an increase to Food Stamp (SNAP) allotments. Suppose the most conservative Republican suggests an increase in defense spending. The Republican says that, on average, military spending does the most good, so more is better. The Democrat is arguing that the extra food purchased by the extra spending will increase well-being the most. What is going on here? A . Both are employing marginal analysis, just from different perspectives. B. Only the Democrat is using marginal analysis. C. Only the Republican is using marginal analysis. D. Neither are using marginal analysis.
In a certain country, income tax is assessed as follows: There is NO tax on income up to $15,000. Income over $15,000 up to $30,000 is taxed at 12%. Income over $30,000 is taxed at 18%. Answer the following questions in a paragraph. 1) Write the piecewise function of this country (make sure to use decimals instead of percent). 2) Determine how much tax is to be paid on an income of $20,000.
In Hofstralia, initially nobody is defaulting on their loan, and the government is running a balanced budget in every period. Joe is a borrower. Draw Joe’s intertemporal budget constraint, use an indifference curve to show his optimal consumption bundle, and place an endowment point (and show its coordinates) on his budget constraint consistent with the fact that he is a borrower. Suppose that the government is eliminates taxes in the current period, and finances its spending through a deficit. Show graphically how the tax cut would affect Joe’s borrowing, and explain what would happen to his consumption and welfare. Would the Ricardian equivalence hold? Why or why not? Suppose now that due to a recession people start losing their jobs. Banks expect some borrowers to default but because of asymmetric information, they do not know which ones. Explain how interest rate on loans would change and why. Show on the graph and explain how events in the financial market would affect Joe’s…
In an expansion, holding everything else constant, a previously existing budget surplus will automatically (a. decrease; b. increase) , partly because total revenues from taxes (a. decrease; b. increase).
Refer to the Laffer curve below. Which of the following is true? A) At A there will be a budget surplus, but at B there will be a budget deficit. B) At A tax rates are higher than at B, but tax revenue collected are the same. C) At B tax rates are higher than at A, but the tax revenues collected are the same. Tax Revenue 0 Tax Rate (Percent) B 100

In an expansion, the cyclically adjusted budget surplus is ______________ than the actual(measured) budget surplus. Select one: a. smaller b. larger c. same as
Why does the budget require a forecast of the economy? Under what circumstances would actual government spending and tax revenue fail to match the budget as approved? kindly explain answers in a simpler way.
Average Tax Rate Tax Revenue ($B) 20% $250 40 300 60 250 80 200 Refer to the table. If the current tax rate is 60 percent, supply-side economists would advocate Multiple Choice lowering tax rates to 20 percent, or lower if possible. lowering tax rates to 40 percent. keeping tax rates at 60 percent. raising tax rates to 80 percent.
