Quantitate for fiscal policy
Target 1: Change G and T to bring the economy to
potential output
Suppose the initial output is Y1 < Yp => ∆𝑌 = 𝑌𝑝 − 𝑌1
AD
To increase Y1 to Yp, it is necessary to change AD 1
AD2
amount ∆𝐴𝐷:
∆𝑌
∆𝑌 = 𝑘. ∆𝐴𝐷0 or ∆𝐴𝐷0 = ∆𝐴𝐷0 AD1
𝑘 𝐴𝐷02
where:
1 1 𝐴𝐷01
𝑘= =

Quantitate for fiscal policy
Target 1: Change G and T to bring the economy to
potential output
• Case 3: Change both G and T
Suppose ∆𝐴𝐷0𝐺 is the increase of AD caused by the change in G
∆𝐴𝐷0𝐶 is the increase of AD caused by the change in T
∆𝐴𝐷0𝐶
∆𝐺 = ∆𝐴𝐷0𝐺 ∆𝑇 = −
𝐶𝑚
We have: ∆𝐴𝐷0𝐺 + ∆𝐴𝐷0𝐶 = ∆𝐴𝐷0
∆𝐺 + −𝐶𝑚. ∆𝑇 = ∆𝐴𝐷0
∆𝐺 − 𝐶𝑚. ∆𝑇 = ∆𝐴𝐷0

Tax 5% 10% 15% 20%
Source: Circular 111/2013/TT-BTC dated 15/8/2013.
• Example: Income = 12 million dong/month ⇒ tax payment = 1,050,000 ⇒
𝑌𝑑 = 10,950,000
• Income = 9,000,000 ⇒ tax payment = 650,000 ⇒ Yd = 8,350,000
⇒ Income reduces 25%, tax reduces 38%, Yd reduces 23.7%.

Example 2
Given the following functions:
• 𝐶 = 100 + 0,75𝑌𝑑 𝐼 = 50 + 0,05𝑌 𝐺 = 300
• 𝑇 = 40 + 0,2𝑌 𝑀 = 70 + 0,15𝑌 𝑋 = 150
a. Calculate the equilibrium output.
b. Give your opinion about the trade balance at equilibrium
output.
c. Suppose export increases an amount ∆𝑋 = 100, what happens
to the trade balance?

• Immediate effect
Reduce the autonomous import 𝑀𝑜
- Output: ∆𝑌 = 𝑘. ∆𝐴𝐷0 = 𝑘. −∆𝑀 > 0
- Trade balance: ∆𝑀∗ = 𝑀𝑚. ∆𝑌 = 𝑀𝑚. 𝑘. (−∆𝑀)
If 𝑀𝑚. 𝑘 < 1 trade balance will be enhanced
• Long-term effect
Reduce the marginal import 𝑀𝑚
𝐶𝑜 + 𝐼𝑜 + 𝐺𝑜 + 𝑋𝑜 − 𝑀𝑜 − 𝐶𝑚. 𝑇𝑜
𝑌=
1 − 𝐶𝑚 1 − 𝑇𝑚 − 𝐼𝑚 + 𝑀𝑚
- Output: 𝑀𝑚 ↓ => 𝑌𝐸 ↑
- Trade balance: depends on 𝑀𝑚. 𝑘
