Answer:

increase by $800

Explanation:

if taxes decrease by 200 then

GPD x tax multipler = net impact on GDP

the tax multiplier is calculated as follows:

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

[tex]\frac{0.8}{1 - 0.8} = \frac{0.8}{0.2}[/tex]

multiplier = 4

tax variation x multiplier

200 x 4 = 800

As the taxes decreases the effect on the GDP is positive.
