  • Yes we assume it is 5 and therefore the equilibrium income is 5 x 300 = 1500.

  • He put 300 on the y axis because ZZ = C (consumption) + I (Investment, in this case 150) + Government spending.

    Investment at 10% is 150, i'm assuming the other 150, comes from consumption and govt. spending.

    Correct me if i'm wrong!

  • @EternalTempest You are right. The vertical intercept consists of autonomous C + autonomous G + investment. The other 150 is then made up of C + G.

  • Why 150?

  • @mattrgreenwell 300 is the sum of Investment (150), private and public consumption: the value of 300 is arbitrary (as it is I=150), it must just be > I.

  • why Y= 1500. is multify 5 just an assumsion?

  • den becent

  • why did he put 300 on y axis?????? should it of been 150?
