Write a short essay explaining the modelling strategies of neoclassical economics.
Explain graphically the determination of equilibrium GDP for a private economy through the aggregate expenditures model. Now add government purchases (any amount you choose) to your graph, showing its impact on equilibrium GDP. Finally, add taxation (any amount of lump-sum tax b. Now open up this economy to international trade by including the export and import figures of columns 3 and $4 .$ Fill in columns 5 and 6 and determine the equilibrium GDP for the open economy. Explain why this equilibrium GDP differs from that of the closed economy. c. Given the original 20 billion dollar level of exports, what would be net exports and the equilibrium GDP if imports were 10 billion dollar greater at each level of GDP? d. What is the multiplier in this example? that you choose) to your graph and show its effect on equilibrium GDP. Looking at your graph, determine whether equilibrium GDP has increased, decreased, or stayed the same given the sizes of the government purchases and taxes that you selected.
