Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation

Given:

Investment I = N100 million

Consumption C = N200 + 0.75Y

Income equation Y = C + Y 

 Substitute C into the income equation

We substitute the consumption equation into the income equation:

Y = (N200 + 0.75Y) + N100

Y = N300 + 0.75Y

Subtract 0.75Y  from both sides:

Y − 0.75Y = N300

This simplifies to:

0.25Y = N3000.   

Now, divide both sides by 0.25

Y = \(\frac{N300}{0.25}\) = N1,200 millions.
