Top Questions on Economics
Consider the following Harrod-Domar growth equation: \[ \frac{s}{\theta} = g + \delta \] where \( s \) is the saving rate, \( \theta \) is the capital-output ratio, \( g \) is the overall growth rate, and \( \delta \) is the capital depreciation rate. If \( \delta = 0 \) and \( s = 20% \), then to achieve \( g = 10% \), the capital-output ratio will be ________ (in integer).
Let \( Y \) be income, \( r \) be the interest rate, \( G \) be government expenditure, and \( M_s \) be money supply. Consider the following closed economy IS-LM equations with a fixed general price level (\( \bar{P} \)):
IS equation: \[ Y = 490 + 0.6Y - 4r + G \] LM equation: \[ \frac{M_s}{\bar{P}} = 20 + 0.25Y - 10r \] If \( G = 330 \) and \( \frac{M_s}{\bar{P}} = 500 \), then the equilibrium \( Y \) is ________ (round off to one decimal place).- Consider a two-person exchange economy where two goods, \( x \) and \( y \), are available in limited quantities of 50 and 100, respectively. The preferences of the two persons, Anil and Binod, are given by the utility functions: \[ U_{{Anil}}(x_{{Anil}}, y_{{Anil}}) = x_{{Anil}}^{0.4} y_{{Anil}}^{0.6} \] \[ U_{{Binod}}(x_{{Binod}}, y_{{Binod}}) = x_{{Binod}}^{0.6} y_{{Binod}}^{0.4} \] If they decide to share good \( y \) equally among themselves, the amount of good \( x \) Anil receives is ______________ (in integer).
- Which of the following statements is/are NOT CORRECT?
Consider the two scenarios for a small open economy based on the Mundell-Fleming IS-LM model with floating exchange rate and perfect capital mobility.
Where \( Y \) is aggregate income, \( C \) is aggregate consumption, \( I \) is investment, \( r^* \) is the world interest rate, \( G \) is government expenditure, \( T \) is taxes, \( NX \) is net exports, \( e \) is exchange rate, \( M \) is money supply, and \( P^* \) is general price level. Given the relationships:
\( I \) has a negative relationship with \( r^* \),
\( NX \) depends negatively on both \( e \) and \( Y \),
\( P^* \) is fixed.
Which of the following statements is/are CORRECT?
