Answer to Question 1

Entering the given values in the IS curve equation yields Y = 18.7. Plugging Y and r into the consumption equation yields C = 12.7. Subtracting C + T from Y gives household saving = 4. The investment equation using these values of Y and r yields I = 3.4. The net exports equation yields NX = 0.6. Note that S = NX + I - (G - T), so the goods market is in equilibrium. Also, Y = C + I + G + NX, so the goods market is in equilibrium.

Answer to Question 2

B
