Question1. As government expenditure increases, the income increases. This increase in income leads to a rise in consumption expenditure. A 1 unit rise in income leads to a rise in consumption by the marginal propensity to consume. As consumption expenditure increases, this induces further increase in output in the economy. So income increases. The increase in government expenditure creates a multiplier effect. This multiplier depends on the marginal propensity to consume (MPC). Higher the MPC higher is the multiplier effect.

The money market is at equilibrium when the demand for money equals the supply of money. The demand for money has ...

Question#1: Use Keynesian cross to explain why fiscal policy has a multiplied effect on national income. Answer: The equation for calculation of national income under Keynesian model is Y=C+I+G+(X-M). In this formula, the Y denotes national income, C denotes level of consumption, I denote level of investment done in the economy, G denotes government’s expenditure, X denotes imports, and M denotes imports of an economy. With the help of this formula, the governments drive fiscal policies for the economy. With the help of this equation, it has been said by Keynes himself that when the ...

Oligopoly is a market structure in which only few firms are having control over market supply and since there are high barriers of entry and exit from the oligopoly market, the existing firms enjoy the monopoly kind position.( Parkin, 2011) Following are some of the salient features of Oligopoly Market: 1. Interdependence: Firms operating under oligopoly are interdependent in the decision making process. The reason for the same is that the number of firms operating and competing in the market are very few and any change in price or output level by one firm will have a direct influence ...

Introduction

The AS-AD framework is a very useful economy tool, which reduces the economy into a simple model of supply and demand. The aggregate demand curve (AD) is given by the summation of consumption (C), investments (I), government purchases (G) and net exports (X-M). On the other hand, the supply curve is a function of the expected price levels. This paper uses the AS-AD model to analyse the economy at various levels of employment, and the adjustments that accompany movement various policy actions. It begins with a depiction of an economy operating at less than full employment, showing that economies often tend towards the ...

The most recent event in the country that I can think of is the 2012 Presidential Election. What has this to do with the economy?

The most obvious connection between a presidential election and economic activity is that, if the incumbent government is eyeing for a reelection, then pre-election programs include execution of expansionary fiscal policy since such policy (either increase in spending or a tax cut) tend to increase economic growth, reduces unemployment and increases the political support for the politician. I learned that fiscal policy pertains to discretionary changes in government spending and tax collection with the goal of ...

Usually, the design of control systems is based on proportional control. The main difference between a proportional controller and a proportional plus derivative controller is that the latter has a derivative section added. According to Cooper (2007), this derivative action is responsive to the rate of change of the error signal. In order to compare the two, it is important to examine the characteristics and mode of operation of each, as well as their industrial application.

It was originally thought that basal ganglia were responsible for voluntary motor movements, and movement disorders were associated with pathological changes in the basal ganglia. However, it was found that the basal ganglia are associated with different cortexes with distinctive circuits, which are called loops, so a pathological transformation of tissue can manifest as a psychological or motor disorder, depending on the loop affected. The cortico-basal ganglia-thalamocortical loop is a one-way circuit that allows the basal ganglia to receive input from the cortex and send output via the thalamus back to different regions of the cortex. Pathological changes in this loop are ...

Abstract

An operational amplifier – OP-AMP is a circuit device that amplifies buffers or attenuates the input signal depending on the configuration. Amplified signal means that the output is greater than the input. This means the gain is larger than one. A buffered output means that the magnitude of input is equal to the output; only that the input has been delayed. An attenuated signal implies that the gain magnitude is less than unity. In this paper, amplification using an op-amp will be investigated. Inverting and non-inverting configurations will be connected and tested. Input waveforms and output waveforms will be compared. It ...

A. Define marginal revenue. Explain its relationship with total revenue.

Marginal revenue can be defined as an increase in revenue that is produced by the sale of one output unit. It can be calculated as a ratio of the change in total revenue to the change in the total output. In the perfectly competitive market marginal revenue is equal to the selling price. In the monopolistic market, however, as supply is controlled by only one company, demand curve is usually above the marginal revenue curve, thus allowing the company to charge higher prices and gain additional revenues.

Marginal cost is the cost that is incurred in the production of one ...

Introduction:

Marginal cost refers to the extra cost incurred by a firm due to an increase in output by one unit. The marginal cost curve, therefore, is a graphical representation used to show the increase in costs incurred by a firm with each successive increase of a unit of output. The marginal cost curve of a firm can take several shapes such as; a rounded check mark, a flat line or an upwardly sloped line (Baumol& Blinder, 2011).

The rounded check mark marginal cost curve:

Any firm that portrays an initial decline in marginal costs with an increase in output up to some point from which any increase in output results, in increasing marginal ...
