Fiscal Policy - The Government Spending Multiplier

  • This video will introduce and explain the effect of an expansionary fiscal policy on aggregate demand, specifically an increase in government spending. When government spending increases, household incomes rise and therefore consumption increases, further adding to the expansionary effect on Aggregate Demand. If we know the marginal propensity to consume among a nation's households, we can calculate the size of the spending multiplier, and thereby determine how much of a stimulus would be needed to increase AD by a particular desired amount.

    Your question is related to microeconomics, not macro. Therefore, you need to watch the videos in my Market Failure playlist. Click on my name and go to my channel, navigate to "Videos" and then "Playlists". Find unit 1.4 Market Failure and there will be videos there which can help you answer your question!

    Great video. Do you have one that takes into account the leakage of import purchases and taxes? And how do you compensate for the increased prices? And what happens when there is an increased in aggregate demand but their is no supply of the goods and services?
    Awesome stuff.

    Say b = mpc, Yt = tot income, C = consump, a = autonomous consump, I = investment, NX = net exports, G = govt spending. 1) Yt = C + I + NX + G 2) Yt = (1/(1-b)) (a+I+NX+G -bT) Add $1 to G in equation 1, and Yt increases $1. No multiplier. Equation 2 is derived from, and can be set equal to equation 1, so it must give the same answer as equation 1. You can't add to G in eq 2. That would illegally put addition 1st in the order of operations. The fiscal "multiplier" is mathematically illegal.

    can someone please tell me what is constrained governmet spending in a simple definition plssssss ive been searching for like an hour but got nothing. im in grade 10

    • @JasonWelker
      @JasonWelker  7 лет назад

      It's the simple idea that any budget deficit has to be financed somehow: 1) printing money (which leads to inflation), 2) borrowing from the public and foreigners (which could drive up interest rates and cause crowding out) 3) using foreign exchange reserves (which could lead to balance of payments problems later on if they are not replenished through trade surpluses) and 4) selling government assets (public lands, public utilities, SOEs, etc...)
      The government is therefore "constrained" in its ability to run budget deficits to achieve its fiscal policy aims by these four limitations. Any fiscal stimulus therefore comes with an opportunity cost: 1) inflation, 2) increased debt to foreigners and higher interest rates, 3) depreciation of the currency or 4) decrease in public wealth and private ownership of assets.
      Simple enough for you? There's no such thing as a free lunch, not even for government!

    • @rowanpadraic7320
      @rowanpadraic7320 6 лет назад

      I think you're confusing the 1 million with 1000 million which is the equivalent to 1 billion.

    Have you ever seen this equation: Yt = C+I+NX+G
    It's an equation. Dollars on both sides.
    Add $1 to one side, same happens on the other side:
    Yt + $1 = C+I+NX+G + $1
    No multiplier.
    What you're saying about a "multiplier" is complete NONSENSE.

      what are you smoking because I want some. The equation you speak of exists but has nothing to do with the multiplier effect.
