Assume that the world works according to the Classical model. In a
small open economy, output is produced according to a Cobb-Douglas
production function, consumption is equal to C=40+0.6(Y-T) and the investment
function is I=280-10r. You
know that the output produced is Y=900, government spending is
G=150, taxes are
T=90 and that the world
real interest rate is 4% (r*=4).
