Lecture Outline - 11b - Keynesian Economics - MACHEMATICS

The document discusses Keynesian economic models to determine national income. It presents a two-sector model where consumption (C) equals 100 + 0.75 times income (Y), investment (I) equals 200. This yields an equilibrium income of 1200 and consumption of 1000. A three-sector model includes taxes, yielding an equilibrium income of 1500, consumption of 1000, taxes of 300, and savings of 200. The multiplier process is explained, showing how an initial change in investment is multiplied across rounds of spending.

Determination of Income

Prof. ND Samarawickreme
Keynesian Economics
Keyness consumption function
C = f (Y)
C=a+bY
When income is zero people still consume using their savings.
Let us assume that the Consumption function takes the following form:
TWO- SECTOR ECONOMY
C= 100 + 0.75 Y
I= 200
Y=C+I
Y = 100 + 0.75 Y + 200
Y 0.75 Y = 100+200
Y (1 - 0.75) = 300

= -100 +Y 0.75 Y
S = - 100 + 0.25 Y
S = 1200 1000 = 200
In this economy S = I and is in equilibrium.
