  4. Leakages and Injections

  5. Spending Multiplier • The spending multiplier measures the change in equilibrium income (real GDP) produced by change in autonomous expenditures: ΔY/ΔI = ΔY/ΔG = ΔY/ΔX • By how many dollars does real GDP change for every dollar change in autonomous expenditures?

  6. Computing the Spending Multiplier:Marginal propensity to save = mps = .3Marginal propensity to import = mpi = .1 If MPS = 0.30 and MPI is 0.10, then MPS + MPI = 0.40 = 4/10. 1/0.40 = 1/(4/10) = 10/4 = 2.5 The multiplier is 2.5. NOTE: The spending multiplier would be larger in a closed economy because MPI would be zero.

  7. Multiplier at Work

  8. Gaps: Recessionary Gap, GDP Gap

  9. GDP Gap, Recessionary Gap • GDP gap = potential real GDP – actual real GDP • How much does real GDP have to increase to generate full employment? • Recessionary gap • How much additional spending is needed to achieve potential GDP (to create full employment)?

  10. Sequence of Expenditures

  11. Sequence of Expenditures

  12. From Aggregate ExpendituretoAggregate Demand

  13. The Fixed-Price, Keynesian AS-AD Model

  14. The Paradox of Thrift
