Worksheet: Unit 3: Determination of Income and Employment
Subject : Economics
1) From the following data, calculate the
a) Consumption Expenditure b) Investment Expenditure Particulars Amount (Rs) Equilibrium level of income 5,000 Autonomous consumption 500 Marginal propensity to save 0.4
2) What is meant by Deflationary Gap? State any two measures to
correct the situation of deflationary gap.
3) Define involuntary unemployment.
4) Defend or refute the given statements with valid reasons.
a) “Ex-ante Aggregate Demand is always equal to Ex-ante Aggregate Supply.” b) “Ex-ante Savings and Ex-ante Investments are always equal.”
5) In an economy, if initial investments are increased by Rs.100
crores, discuss the working of investment multiplier presuming MPC is 0.8
6) If the Saving function is S= (-)10 + 0.2 Y, derive Consumption
function from the given saving function?
7) Suppose in a hypothetical economy, the income rises from Rs. 500
crores to Rs. 600 crores. As a result, the consumption expenditure rises from Rs.400crores to Rs.500 crores. MPC in such a case would be _____ a) 0.8 Page 1 of 3 b) 0.4 c) 1.0 d) 0.6
8) Discuss the working of the adjustment mechanism if, AD is greater
than AS. 9) Answer the following questions based on the data given below: Planned investment = 100 crore C = 50 + 0.5Y
a) Determine the equilibrium level of income.
b) Calculate the saving and consumption expenditure at equilibrium level of National income.
10) Based on following information, identify whether the
economy is in equilibrium or not: a) Autonomous consumption and Investment expenditure- 500 crores b) MPS – 0.2 c) National Income- 4,000crores 11) In an economy, the aggregate demand function is given by: AD= 160 + 0.8Y The full employment level of income is Rs 1,000 crores. Calculate the equilibrium level of income and the increase in investment required to reach the full employment level.
