Expert Solution

Higher consumer wealth will increase consumption demand, which will increase aggregate demand. AD curve will shift to right, increasing both price level and real GDP, giving rise to inflationary (expansionary) gap in short run. Unemployment rate will fall.

In the intermediate run, higher price level will increase wages and input prices, raising production costs. Firms will decrease production and output, decreasing aggregate supply. SRAS shifts leftward, until new long run equilibrium is established at intersection of new AD curve at further higher price level but restoring real GDP to potential GDP. Unemployment rate will restore at original full-employment rate.

In following graph, initial long-run equilibrium is at point A where AD0 (aggregate demand), LRAS0 (long-run aggregate supply) and SRAS0 (short-run aggregate supply) curves intersect with long-run equilibrium price level P0 and long-run equilibrium real GDP (which is equal to potential GDP) Y0. As result of higher consumption, AD curve will shift rightward from AD0 to AD1, intersecting SRAS0 at point B with higher price level P1 and higher real output Y1, with short run inflationary gap of (Y0 - Y1). In the long run, SRAS0 shifts left to SRAS1, intersecting AD1 at point C with further higher price level P2 and restoring real GDP to potential GDP level Y0.

Show the short run effects of an increase in consumer confidence on an open economy that is on a flexible exchange rate. (Hint: an increase in consumer confidence will increase autonomous consumption spending). To answer this question, draw the following five diagrams: 1. The goods market 2. The money market 3.

The stock market declines sharply, reducing consumers’ wealth. What are the short-run and long-run effects on output and the price level? a. In the short-run, output increases and the price level decreases. In the long-run, output returns to its original level while the price level is lower than it was initially b. In the short-run, both output and the price level decrease. In the long-run, output returns to its original level while the price level is lower than it was...
