Fiscal policy refers to government spending and tax policies used to influence macroeconomic conditions. Discretionary fiscal policy involves deliberate changes to spending and taxes, while automatic stabilizers adjust naturally with economic fluctuations. Expansionary policy, like increased spending, aims to boost aggregate demand during recessions by shifting the curve outward, raising real GDP and prices. Contractionary policy, like tax increases, seeks to reduce demand and inflation by shifting the curve inward. The multiplier effect amplifies these impacts. Lags and crowding out limit fiscal policy effectiveness.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Discretionary fiscal policy
The balanced budget multiplier
Automatic stabilisers
Supply-side fiscal policy
The federal budget
The macroeconomic significance of the budget
Implications of the budget outcome for
government debt levels

3. Fiscal Policy
– Fiscal Policy: Changes in federal government
spending and taxes and that are intended to
achieve macroeconomic policy objectives,
such as full employment, price stability, and
sustainable rates of economic growth.
3
4. Fiscal Policy
• Discretionary fiscal policy versus Automatic
stabilisers.
Discretionary fiscal policy is used as a counter
cyclical tool. It is the deliberate changes in
government spending and/or taxation decisions
with the aim of achieving the government’s macro
policy objectives such as low inflation and full
employment.
Automatic stabilisers: Government spending and
taxes that automatically increase or decrease along
with the business cycle.
4
5. DISCRETIONARY FISCAL POLICY
• Discretionary fiscal policy is the use of
changes in government spending and/or
taxes to alter aggregate demand (AD) and
stabilise the economy.
• The government can increase AD through
expansionary fiscal policy.
• The government can reduce AD through
contractionary fiscal policy.
5
7. INCREASING GOVERNMENT SPENDING TO COMBAT
RECESSION
• In a period of slow economic growth, policy makers
could either:
– do nothing and wait for the business cycle to
expand, or
– increase government spending.
• This expansionary fiscal policy would:
– shift the AD curve outwards (to the right)
– increase real GDP
– raise the price level.
7
9. THE AMOUNT OF SPENDING
REQUIRED
• Initial spending by the government is amplified, as a
spending multiplier occurs.
– Those receiving the money spend some of it on
goods and services, which creates a ripple effect.
• The proportion spent depends on the marginal
propensity to consume (MPC).
• We use this to calculate the spending multiplier.
9
10. Marginal Propensity to Consume (MPC)
• Disposable Income (YD) = the income of
households plus transfers received from the
government less taxes paid to the government.
• Since YD can only be consumed (C) or saved (S):
YD = C + S
where C = consumption
expenditure
S = Saving
10
11. Marginal Propensity to Consume (MPC)
(continued..)
• Marginal Propensity to consume (MPC) = change in
consumption expenditure (ΔC) divided by change in
disposable income (ΔYD):
MPC = ΔC / ΔYD
• Example:
Period 1
Period 2
Change
Yd
$30,000
$40,000
$10,000
C
$25,000
$32,500
$7,500
Then MPC = $7,500 / $10,000
MPC = 0.75
11
12. The Spending Multiplier

Period 5
12
13. THE SPENDING MULTIPLIER
Assume the MPC is 0.75
Each dollar of expansionary government spending creates
75 cents in extra purchasing power.
In the next round of spending, the $0.75 creates an
additional $0.56 in spending power; then $0.42 in the next.
An extra $1 creates $4 in extra spending.
13
14. THE SPENDING MULTIPLIER
• We can use a formula to determine the
spending multiplier:
1
1 – MPC
The multiplier =
The multiplier =
The multiplier =
1
1 – 0.75
1
0.25
The multiplier = 4
14
15. THE SPENDING MULTIPLIER
• If MPC is 0.75, using the formula
(1 / 1- MPC), the spending multiplier is 4.
• An initial increase in $1 billion government
spending will result in $4 billion extra spending.
• If MPC is 0.8, using the formula,
(1 / 1- MPC), the spending multiplier is 5.
• If MPC is 0.85, using the formula,
(1 / 1- MPC), the spending multiplier is 6.7.
15
16. CUTTING TAXES TO
COMBAT A RECESSION
• Cutting taxes would also expand the economy and
help restore full employment.
• This policy would also:
– shift the AD curve outwards
– increase real GDP
– raise the price level.
16
17. THE EFFECT OF A TAX CUT
A tax cut worth $10 billion creates $10 billion extra
disposable income.
When MPC is 0.75, this creates an extra $7.5 billion in
spending.
This is less than the initial effect of a spending increase,
as a fraction of the tax cut is saved rather than spent.
Thus the tax cut results in a smaller expansionary effect.
Maybe Not! There is some debate over the size of multipliers.
17
19. USING FISCAL POLICY
TO COMBAT INFLATION
• Contractionary fiscal policy can also be effective
against demand-pull inflation.
• Cutting spending reduces aggregate demand (a
‘negative’ spending multiplier applies in this case).
• The price level will decrease.
• The government could also raise taxes.
19
21. THE BALANCED BUDGET MULTIPLIER
• This refers to an equal change in government
spending and taxes.
• This gives a neutral effect (zero-sum) on
government finances – a prudent way of
financing government.
• The balanced budget multiplier is equal to 1,
and the cumulative change in aggregate
demand is always equal to the amount of the
initial change in government spending.
21
22. THE BALANCED BUDGET MULTIPLIER (continued)
• Example: Assume a $1 billion increase in government spending and
a $1 billon increase in taxes to finance that spending.
• with MPC = 0.75, the spending multiplier is 4. Then, the increase in
government spending being $1 billion, the addition to aggregate
demand is 4 billion (= $1 billion x 4).
• With increase in taxes of $1 billion, the MPC = 0.75, the direct
reduction in consumption is only $ 0.75 billion ($1 billion x 075).
The spending multiplier in this case = 4. Thus, the reduction in
aggregate demand is $3 billion ($0.75 billion x 4).
Therefore, cumulative increase in aggregate demand is $1 billion
($4 billion - $ 3 billion), which is exactly equal to initial government
spending of $1 billion.

activity
throughout the
Economy.
24. Further Reading on the Baby Bonus
The the Baby Bonus was introduced in 2004 at
$4,000 and increased over the following years
to $5,000. The Australian economy was at or
near full employment in the mid 2000s. There
was a claim that the Baby Bonus precipitated
an increase in retail spending. (Follow the link

25. AUTOMATIC STABILISERS
• Government revenues and expenditures
automatically change over the course of the
business cycle.
• These changes help to stabilise the economy
to some extent, without the need for
changing government spending too much.
25
26. AUTOMATIC STABILISERS (CONT.)
• Transfer payments (e.g. job search allowance)
fall as GDP rises, mainly because
unemployment falls.
• On the other hand, tax revenues and GDP are
directly related (higher personal and business
incomes).
26
28. SUPPLY-SIDE FISCAL POLICY
• This reflects government policies that increase
aggregate supply to achieve long-run growth in
real output, full employment and a lower inflation
level.
• Examples:
– microeconomic reform in Australia, e.g. tax
reform, deregulation, Work Choices
– the Reagan tax cuts in the USA.
28
30. The Limits of using Fiscal Policy to
Stabilise the economy
• Timing lags
– Recognition lag: the time it takes policy makers to
ascertain there is a problem to be addressed.
– Legislative lag: the time it takes to have policy
approved by both Houses of Federal Parliament.
– Implementation lag: the time it takes to
implement the policy, and for the policy
to take effect.
30
31. Limits to Fiscal Policy: The Crowding Out Issue
• Crowding out occurs when there is a reduction in private sector
spending due to federal budget deficits being financed by
government borrowing.
• In order to finance the deficit, the government must compete
for funds in the finance market which increases interest rates.
• High rates dissuade private sector spending (or borrowing to
invest).
• Crowding out will reduce the impact of expansionary fiscal
policy.
31
32. THE FEDERAL BUDGET
• The Australian federal budget (May each year) is
the principal fiscal policy statement each year.
• The budget outcome is usually described as
being:
– in surplus (government revenue exceeds government
spending); or
– in deficit (government spending exceeds government
revenue).
32
33. THE BUDGET OUTCOME
• The budget outcome is of interest because:
– federal government outlays are a considerable
percentage of GDP
– the budget announces the government’s fiscal
stance (whether the government is trying to
expand or contract economic activity).
– The Australian Government Budget
– The New Zealand Goverment Budget

39. THE COUNTERCYCLICAL
ROLE OF FISCAL POLICY AND THE BUDGET
• The countercyclical role of fiscal policy implies budget
deficits in times when economic activity is low
(recession) and budget surpluses in times when
economic activity is high (boom).
Many governments now place an emphasis on
their budgets being ‘in balance’ over the course
of the business cycle in order to show that they
are responsible and are safe borrowers.
39
42. OTHER ROLES OF FISCAL POLICY
• The budget also reflects medium-to-longterm goals.
• Recent policy initiatives have included:
– the introduction of the GST in 2000, which
broadened the tax base
– greater focus on economic growth
– focus on reducing the unemployment rate.
42
43. IMPLICATIONS OF THE BUDGET OUTCOME FOR GOVERNMENT
DEBT
• Budget deficits add to government debt.
– This is the total value of outstanding government
securities.
• The Australian government debt to external parties is
relatively low in comparison to OECD figures.
• Future budget deficits will need to be financed by
money or debt financing.
43
45. THE BURDEN OF THE DEBT
• The burden of the debt is the possibility that
government debt could create a burden on future
generations.
• It should be remembered, however, that much
wealth creation involves the use of borrowing and
debt.
• Much government debt has also been used to
finance infrastructure.
45
46. THE EXTERNAL COMPONENT OF NATIONAL DEBT
• The portion of a country’s national debt that is owed
to foreigners is a different matter.
• Currently Australia has a negligible component of
national debt.
• This is an external debt that should increase the
quantity of output from future production, but will
also involve repayment with interest to foreigners.
