Q: Define current account deficit? hw to reduce current account deficit? 5Marks

CURRENT ACCOUNT DEFICIT
Current account is very much important in order to maintain the long term sustainability of the balance of payment.
Recall the equilibrium condition of the economy is where withdrawals equal the injections.
W = J
S + T + M = I + G + X
M – X = I – S + G – T
Current account deficit = Private sector resource deficit + Government budget deficit Japan and Korean economy remained in high current account deficit due to high private sector resource deficit. This deficit arises when firms want to invest more and debts that are taken to finance the current account deficit go for the investment of the firms. Government spending and household consumption was not being financed. African and Latin American economies were also remained in high current account deficit. But this deficit was due to the higher consumption expenditures by the households and consumers. This caused worsen the debt problems of these countries.

Devaluation can help in this regard. Devaluation causes an increase in exports and decrease in imports leading to reduction in current account deficit. But this policy also not successful empirically due to several reasons in many countries.

Answer:
Money demand Md increases with income levels.
Money demand Md falls with interest rates.

As you can see from the diagram where money demand in on the x-axis and income is on the y-axis, and there are various level showns like L1,L2,L3.

Q: Drive the equation of Money Multiplier with the help of income and consumption equation? 5Marks

Y = C + I + G + NX
C = a + bY

Answer:

By Putting the value of 'C'
Y = a + bY + I + G + NX

Y – bY = a + I + G + NX

Y = a + I + G + NX /1 -b= 1/1 -b (a + I + G + NX)

k =     1/1- b

Q: Difference between Personal income and deposable personal income? 3Marks
Answer:
Personal income of an individual is the total amount of income s/he receives form deploying all the different factors of production s/he owns. Aggregate personal income is just the above definition aggregated for the whole of the economy. The total income received by the members of the domestic household sector, which may or may not be earned from productive activities during a given period of time, usually one year. The primary use of personal income is to measure the income actually paid out to the household sector. After adjusting for income taxes, personal income forms the basis for consumption expenditures on gross domestic product.
Disposable income is obtained by subtracting the amount of direct taxes from the personal income of the person. Aggregate holds as above as well.

Q: What is the Exogenous growth model? 3Marks

EXOGENOUS GROWTH THEORY
The Exogenous growth model, also known as the Neo-classical growth model or Solow growth model is a term used to sum up the contributions of various authors to a model of long-run economic growth within the framework of neoclassical economics. The most important contribution was probably the work done by Robert Solow; Solow received the 1987 Nobel Prize in Economics for his work on the model. The key assumption of the neoclassical growth model is that capital is subject to diminishing returns. Given a fixed stock of labor, the impact on output of the last unit of capital accumulated will always be less than the one before. Assuming for simplicity no technological progress or labor force
growth, diminishing returns implies that at some point the amount of new capital produced is only just enough to make up for the amount of existing capital lost due to depreciation. At this point, because of the assumptions of no technological progress or labor force growth, the economy ceases to grow.
