What are the three kinds of saving? What’s the difference between saving and investment? How does the financial system coordinate saving and investment? How do govt policies affect saving, investment, and the interest rate?

10 ACTIVE LEARNING A. Calculations ACTIVE LEARNING 1 A. Calculations  Suppose GDP equals $10 trillion, consumption equals $6.5 trillion, the government spends $2 trillion and has a budget deficit of $300 billion.  Find public saving, taxes, private saving, national saving, and investment. © 2012 Cengage Learning.

11 ACTIVE LEARNING Answers, part A ACTIVE LEARNING 1 Answers, part A Given: Y = 10.0, C = 6.5, G = 2.0, G – T = 0.3 Public saving = T – G = – 0.3 Taxes: T = G – 0.3 = 1.7 Private saving = Y – T – C = 10 – 1.7 – 6.5 = 1.8 National saving = Y – C – G = 10 – 6.5 = 2 = 1.5 Investment = national saving = 1.5 © 2012 Cengage Learning.

12 ACTIVE LEARNING B. How a tax cut affects saving ACTIVE LEARNING 1 B. How a tax cut affects saving  Use the numbers from the preceding exercise, but suppose now that the government cuts taxes by $200 billion.  In each of the following two scenarios, determine what happens to public saving, private saving, national saving, and investment. 1. Consumers save the full proceeds of the tax cut. 2. Consumers save 1/4 of the tax cut and spend the other 3/4. © 2012 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

16 Last clicker question for the moment! Given: Y = 10.0, C = 6.5, G = 2.0, G – T = 0.3 If T is reduced by 0.2 and households save all of it, what is happens to private investment? A.It goes down by 0.2. B.Nothing. C.It goes up by 0.2. D.All of the above. © 2012 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

17 ACTIVE LEARNING Answers, part B ACTIVE LEARNING 1 Answers, part B In both scenarios, public saving falls by $200 billion, and the budget deficit rises from $300 billion to $500 billion. 1. If consumers save the full $200 billion, national saving is unchanged, so investment is unchanged. 2. If consumers save $50 billion and spend $150 billion, then national saving and investment each fall by $150 billion. © 2012 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

18 ACTIVE LEARNING C. Discussion questions ACTIVE LEARNING 1 C. Discussion questions The two scenarios from this exercise were: 1.Consumers save the full proceeds of the tax cut. 2.Consumers save 1/4 of the tax cut and spend the other 3/4.  Which of these two scenarios do you think is more realistic?  Why is this question important? © 2012 Cengage Learning.

May not be copied, scanned, or duplicated, in whole or in part, except for use as permitted in a license distributed with a certain product or service or otherwise on a password-protected website for classroom use. 21 The Market for Loanable Funds The supply of loanable funds comes from saving:  Households with extra income can loan it out and earn interest.  Public saving, if positive, adds to national saving and the supply of loanable funds. If negative, it reduces national saving and the supply of loanable funds.

29 ACTIVE LEARNING Budget deficits ACTIVE LEARNING 2 Budget deficits  Use the loanable funds model to analyze the effects of a government budget deficit:  Draw the diagram showing the initial equilibrium.  Determine which curve shifts when the government runs a budget deficit.  Draw the new curve on your diagram.  What happens to the equilibrium values of the interest rate and investment? © 2012 Cengage Learning.

The govt borrows to finance its deficit, leaving less funds available for private investment.  This is called crowding out. (This has not been an important problem in the recent past. )  Recall from the preceding chapter: Investment is important for long-run economic growth. If government borrowing isn’t spent wisely, budget deficits may reduce the economy’s growth rate and future standard of living.

Examples:  The Bond Market. A bond is a certificate of indebtedness.  The Stock Market. A stock is a claim to partial ownership in a firm.

Examples:  Banks  Mutual funds – institutions that sell shares to the public and use the proceeds to buy portfolios of stocks and bonds

Financial markets help allocate the economy’s scarce resources to their most efficient uses.  Financial markets also link the present to the future: They enable savers to convert current income into future purchasing power, and borrowers to acquire capital to produce goods and services in the future.

47 SUMMARY The supply of loanable funds comes from saving. The demand for funds comes from investment. The interest rate adjusts to balance supply and demand in the loanable funds market. A government budget deficit is negative public saving, so it reduces national saving, the supply of funds available to finance investment. When a budget deficit crowds out investment, it reduces the growth of productivity and GDP. © 2012 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

48 SUMMARY National saving equals private saving plus public saving. In a closed economy, national saving equals investment. The financial system makes this happen. The U.S. financial system is made up of many types of financial institutions, like the stock and bond markets, banks, and mutual funds. © 2012 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
