Answer to Question 1

In our circular flow model, the total amount of spending for all households will be equal to the total amount of income. (The impact of issues such as taxes, exports, and imports could be added later.) However, the total amount spent by any one household is not necessarily equal to the amount of income which that specific household receives. Household income is determined by the value of the factors of production that the household owns rather than the amount of consumption by the household.
