Do they have any real diffrence in usage or meaning, or is it just that "utilise" sounds more formal? What do you think would be the diffrence in implication in using "use" VS "utilise", or visa versa?

Don't tell me to check the meanings in a dictionary, i want a direct comparison not just a definition of each. (For example defining "dog" and "cat" would be very different to comparing the two animals.)

The following is the data for a hypothetical island economy. All values are in billions of real dollars. Assume that the island economy does not engage in trade with any other countries.

Gross Domestic Product$2,000
Taxes $ 400
Government Purchases$ 500
Investment $ 300
Consumption $1,200

What is the status of the federal budget?

A. Surplus of $100 billion
B. Deficit of $400 billion
C. Surplus of $300 billion
D. Deficit of $100 billion

Do I use the forumula
S= Y-C-G
=2000-1200-500= 300? C.
I'm guessing though that That gives me the savings, how do I get the government spending equation?

By the way thank you all for helping me on the previous questions.
