Since the graph of p 2 (x) is very close to the graph of ln(1 + x 2 ) for x near 0, the areas under the two graphs should be almost the same. The area under the graph of p 2 (x) is

What is the “multiplier” in this case? Express all amounts of money in billions of dollars. Of the increase in income created by the tax cut, (0.89)(20) billion dollars will be spent. These dollars become extra income to someone and hence 89% will be spent again and 11% saved, so additional spending of (0.89)(0.89)(20) billion dollars is created. The recipients of those dollars will spend 89% of them, creating yet additional spending of billion dollars, and so on. The total amount of new spending created by the tax cut is thus given by the infinite series
