Question 7

In the above question, calculate the effect on output of a 10 per cent increase in transfers, and a 10 per cent increase in lump-sum taxes. Compare the effects of the two.

Answer

MPC = 0.80
= 20
I = 30
G = 50
TR = 100
ΔTR = 10

Equilibrium level of income =
= Rs 940

Change in income = 940 - 900 = Rs 40

Increase in lump-sum tax ΔT = 10

Change in Income
= 10 ×

= - 10 × 4
= - 40

From the above results, we can conclude that increase of 10 percent in transfers will raise the income by 40%.

And, increase of 10% in tax will lead to a fall in the income by 40%.
