... Because government purchases and taxes increase by the same amount, we know that ΔG = ΔT. Therefore, we can rewrite the above equation as: ΔY = [(1/(1 – MPC)) – (MPC/(1 – MPC))]ΔG ΔY = ΔG. This expression tells us how output changes, holding the interest rate constant. It says that an equal increase ...
