1. Suppose the economy is described by the following behavioural equations:
Consumption C = 150+0.8YD where YD = disposable income
Investment I = 120
Government G = 120
Taxes T = 10
What are equilibrium GDP and consumption?
2. Suppose the population of a country is 200 million people of whom 60 million are working age. Of these 60 million 30 million have jobs. Of the remainder: 5 million would like jobs but are not searching; 5 million are discouraged workers; and the rest are actively searching for jobs.
