Question 6 Assuming upward sloping supply curve and downward sloping demand curve, imposition of an excise tax has which of the following effects on the equilibrium quantity of a good? Quantity remains the same Depends on the amount of tax imposed Quantity increases Quantity decreases

As the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) increases, the multiplier As the marginal propensity to save (MPS) increases, the multiplier remains the same increases decreases. decreases increases remains the same If the marginal propensity to consume is 0.30, what is the multiplier; assuming there are no taxes or imports? Round to the tenths place: Given the multiplier that you calculated, by how much will gross domestic product (GDP) increase when there is a $1,000 increase in government spending? Give your answer to the nearest whole number

If the marginal propensity to consume is 0.40, then the multiplier is (assuming there are no taxes or imports): (Note: Round to the tenths place) Given the multiplier that you calculated, by how much will GDP increase when there is a $1,000 increase in government spending?
