Given the following information about each economy, either calculate the missing variable or determine that it cannot be calculated: a. Suppose C = $20.1 billion, I = $3.5 billion, G = $5.2 billion, and NX = $-1 billion. Total income is. b. Suppose total income is $1.5 trillion, G = $0.8 trillion, and C = $1 trillion. I is. c. Suppose total expenditure is $576 billion, C = $445 billion, I = $115 billion, and G = $81 billion. Instructions: Enter your answer as a whole number. Include a negative sign if appropriate. NX is $ billion. Exports are. revised jrl 06152012

    a. Total income formula is:

    Y = C+I+G+NX

    Y=20.1+3.5+5.2 + (-1)

    Y = $27.8 billion

    b. In closed economies, income is calculated with this formula:

    I=Y-C-G

    I = 1.5-1-0.8

    I = - $0.3 trillion

    In open economies, income cannot be calculated because net exports (NX) data is missing.

    c. NX is

    NX = 576-445-115-81

    NX = - $65 billion

    NX is exports minus imports, in this case imports are more than exports. To calculate exports you need imports data.
