Question 1: Suppose an economy is in equilibrium.

a) Using aggregate demand and aggregate supply, illustrate the equilibrium. Do not forget to include the long-run aggregate supply.

b) Now suppose the central bank decided to increase the money supply in the economy. Using the theory of liquidity preference and the money market graph, illustrate what is going to happen to the aggregate demand.

c) Draw the new short-run equilibrium of the economy, as a result of the shift in aggregate demand you considered in part b). What will happen to the output in the short-run? What will happen to the price level in the short-run?

d) Assuming no government intervention, show the long-run equilibrium. How did the economy adjust to this new long-run equilibrium point? Explain.

Expert Solution

a) Diagram is given below showing Equilibrium in the Economy. Point E shows the Equilibrium.

b) When the money supply Increases, in the Money market diagram, money supply Curve shifts to right. Interest rate goes down. Aggregate Demand Increases and Aggregate Demand curve shifts to the right as shown in the Diagram below.

C) In the short run, Both Output and Price Level will increase as shown in the diagram above.

D) Adjustment towards the Long run Equilibrium leads the money Wages and Prices to fully adjust themselves because of which the Increase in money supply causes no Change in Employment and Output. Output remains at long run Equilibrium level, shown above by point E" in the Diagram above. However, Price Level Increases more than it Increased in the Short run.

1. Using the Aggregate Demand-Aggregate Supply logic of Chapter 10, suppose that at first, the economy is at long-run equilibrium, on both the short-run and long-run aggregate supply curves (in other words, unemployment is at the Natural Rate of Unemployment). Then, government spending rises with no change in taxes. A. What happens in the short-run to output (Y) and the prices of goods? Explain why using Aggregate Demand and Supply logic (you don’t need to draw the graphs unless you...

Using the aggregate demand–aggregate supply model, illustrate (draw a graph) a market economy experiencing a recessionary gap (include aggregate demand, short-run and long-run aggregate supply curves). Label all parts of the graph. In your own words, explain how government can close the recessionary gap? What would be the effect on price and real GDP?

1. Show in the aggregate demand - aggregate supply framework (AD/AS) an economy in long-run equilibrium. 2. Again in the AD/AS framework, show an economy with an inflationary gap and then show the effects of additional stimulus, say a tax cut, on this economy in the short-run. 3. Suppose that after the stimulus a trade war involving intermediate goods breaks out, reducing aggregate supply. Show the long and short-run effects of this trade war being very clear about price level,...

Question 13: Suppose that an increase in aggregate demand propels the economy to an equilibrium output in excess of potential GDP. According to the self-correcting model: The AD curve will eventually shift back to the left and return the economy to potential GDP The short-run AS curve will eventually shift to the right and return the economy to potential GDP The short-run AS curve will eventually shift to the left and return the economy to potential GDP Potential GDP will...

Aggregate Demand and Aggregate Supply: Assume that the economy is in short run equilibrium, and experiencing a recession Build the Aggregate Demand/Aggregate Supply graph which corresponds to this situation. Remember to label everything (all curves and axis and equilibrium) and include the long-run potential curve. Suppose The Fed were to make an open-market purchase of $200 million in US Treasury bonds. Is this a shift or a movement along a curve? Which curve? Graph it in such a way that...

Illustrate graphically an aggregate demand/aggregate supply of an economy in a recessionary situation. Show the GDP gap graphically. How can the Federal help close the recessionary gap moving the economy back toward full employment using monetary policy? Account for the role of the money supplier in the answer. Graphically show the prescription chosen. What is the potential impact on interest rates, budget deficit and trade deficit if applicable? Explain your answer.

Suppose the economy starts at point 1 in the aggregate supply–aggregate demand (AS-AD) graph and at point A on the Phillips curve graph. Points 2 and 3 start out stacked on point 1, but they will need to be moved to the proper locations that reflect steps 2 and 3 described below. Likewise for points B and C. The AS-AD graph reflects two aggregate demand curves (AD1 and AD2), the long-run aggregate supply curve (LAS) and two short-run aggregate supply...

Draw an aggregate demand (AD)/aggregate supply (AS) graph to illustrate an economy experiencing a recession. Label all curves and axes. Also explain, The monetary policy you would use to eliminate the recession you illustrated above, what are the policy impacts on real GDP, employment, and price level? Draw an economy in an economic bubble and explain the fiscal policy you would use to get it out. If the policy you implemented in (c) above succeeds, what is likely to happen...

1. Using the Aggregate Demand (AD) model diagram, illustrate what happens to the equilibrium level of aggregate output when firms start to feel more optimistic about the future and increase their investment. (Hint: What happens to the IS curve?) Make sure you properly label all the axes and curves. Will this lead more likely to an expansion or recession? 2. Using the Aggregate Demand (AD) model diagram, illustrate what happens to the equilibrium level of aggregate output when the Federal...
