Abstract

When government expenditure (G) and taxes (7) are increased by equal amounts, the resulting increase in income (NNP) is exactly equal to the increase in government expenditure. The multiplier is equal to 1 (unity). This is the famous balanced budget mdtiplier theorem[l, p. 344]. © 1990, Emerald Backfiles
