Q3: Three kind of goods are produced in an economy (X,Y,Z).

The value added in the


production of X is 100 millions, the total production of Y is 40 millions and the total
production of Z is 80 millions. The only intermediate good is that one half of the goods Y
are used as inputs to produce the goods Z. Then the total value added in this economy is (in
millions)

Value Added in the production of X = 100 millions

Total Production of Y = 40 millions (Half of those is an intermediate good), therfore

Value Added in the production of Y = 40/2 = 20 million

Value Added in the production of Z = 80 millions

Total Value Added = 100 + 20 + 80

= 200 millions

Q4: In the economy of Talikastan in 2015, exports were $200, GDP was $2000, government
purchases were $200, imports were $270, and investment was $500. What was Talikastan’s
consumption (in $) in 2015?

Y = C + I + G + NX

$2,000 = C + $500 +$200 + ($200 - $270)

$2,000 = C + $630

C = $2,000 - $630

C = $1,370
