    Correct option is D.

    $1440

    Explanation:

    Equilibrium output in this economy equals

    Y=C+I+G+NX

    C=a+b (Y-T)

    a=autonomous consumption=100

    b=marginal propensity to consume = 0.75

    Y=equilibrium GDP

    T=taxes=40

    I=investment = 50

    G=government spending = 150

    NX=net export = 20

    Y=100+0.75 * (Y-40) + 50+150+20

    Y=320+0.75Y-30

    0.25Y=290

    Y=290/0.25

    Y=1160

    the equilibrium GDP is $1160
