Answer: $240,000

Explanation:

When given the Marginal Propensity to Consume (MPC), it is possible to calculate the multiplier which will then show how much the Economy will grow by given a change in government expenditure. This is because MPC measures how much of income is spent when income increase.

Multiplier = [tex]\frac{1}{1-MPC}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{1}{1-0.75}[/tex]

= 4

Effect on Real GDP = Government Spending * Multiplier

= 60,000 * 4

= $240,000
