    The minimum required change in taxes will be greater than that of the minimum required change in government spending

    tax multiplier (mpc/mps = 0/8/0.2=0.4) is smaller than the government spending multiplier (1/mps = 1/.2=5) because of the initial increase in disposable income caused by the decrease in income tax will be saved rather than spent
