Dear Sir or Madam:

Re: Line Patroller Position

I hope you please consider accepting this letter an application for the line patroller position posted on the Kinder Morgan web site. The listing states that the line patroller’s primary purpose is to “perform and coordinate work group activities including patrolling, locating, and inspecting construction and inspecting excavation of company gas/liquids pipelines, appurtenances, compressor stations, process plants, and other related facilities.” I would like to elaborate on several qualities I possess in the areas of effective decision-making skills, ability to deal with pressure, planning/organizing/following-up skills, and teamwork skills that make me the perfect candidate for the Line Patroller position.

Throughout my career, I have reviewed items from simple reports to elaborate architectural drawings and have made recommendations. As an officer in the US air force, I regularly reviewed and wrote important documents and not only briefed colonels and generals but provided recommended courses of action to deal with achieving our objectives.

While employed at sunshine bank I worked closely with our architects who designed new branches and our corporate headquarters. My role was to make recommendations regarding the safety and security of the buildings for our clients, employees, and assets. I also regularly briefed the executive board of the bank to information them of my recommendations and our progress.

My proven record of success in the areas listed above will prove to be an asset for Kinder Morgan. You will find that my experience and character make me the perfect candidate to fill the line patroller position. Take the next week for consideration, and I will call to schedule the next step to becoming part of your organization.

Sincerely,
Peter E. Sampson

Suppose a computer virus disables the nation's automatic teller machines, making withdrawals from the bank accounts less convenient. As a result, people want to keep more cash on hand, increasing the demand for money.

a. Assume the Fed does not change the money supply. According to the theory of liquidity preference, what happens to the interest rate? What happens to aggregate demand?

b. If instead the Fed wants to stabilize aggregate demand, how should it change the money supply?

c. If it wants to accomplish this change in the money supply using open-market operations, what should it do?

Suppose the following occurs: (1)  Circuit City were very pessimistic about their future sales on their electronic games so they expected their sales to fall on their electronic games by $100 million because they expected to go out of business due to declining profits so they didn’t invest any money to open up factories and use machines to produce electronic games, (2) and at the same time, the federal government decided to implemented a $2 per unit tax on each electronic game Circuit City can produce. (3) the shift in the AD curve shifts more than the shift in the SRAS curve. Based on this information, in the short run equilibrium Price Level will __________ ; the equilibrium real GDP will _________;and the unemployment rate will __________.(Hint: Draw the initial AD-SRAS curves and then on the same graph draw the new AD-SRAS curves to derive your final answer ).

While economists agree on the major factors that either initially caused the Great Depression or that made it as deep and long as it was, there has been a never-ending debate about exactly how important each element was. Below are six of the primary factors that made the Great Depression a lot worse.

For each of the six, DRAW a graph (so draw 6 graphs in total) indicating the impact each would have had on the US economy. WRITE next to each graph what would happen GDP and to the price level as a result.

Causes of the Great Depression

1 - Oct 29, 1929 "Black Tuesday" - The US stock market had started sliding down in September and there was a milder panic 5 days before, but on Oct 29 the market plunged 12% in one day. This crash wiped out many people's life savings and many firms filed for bankruptcy. The Federal Reserve had been warning people about irrational exuberance and rampant speculation for 4-5 years before.

2 - Bank collapses - 700 banks failed in 1929 and 3000 more in 1930. In 1932, a new banking panic led to the loss of more than 1/3 of all banks in the country.

3 - The Smoot-Hawley Tariff - In 1930 Congress raised import tariffs to record levels in an attempt to protect US jobs. However, this sparked retaliatory trade measures from European countries. Over the next 4 years our exports dropped by 2/3.

4 - Drought hit the plains states starting in 1930 and continued with dust storms in 1931 through 1939. By the time normal rainfall resumed, 35-125 million acres had lost its topsoil and could not be used for farming the way it had been.

5 - In response to all this, the Federal Reserve tightened the money supply in 1929, 1932, and 1937. The tighter money also caused to deflation, which made it even harder for homes and firms to repay their debts, and made the banking collapses and tariff impacts worse.

6 - Presidents Hoover and Roosevelt and Congress enacted a large number of programs to try to fix the economy. Some were deemed unconstitutional. Some probably helped. Others backfired and made things worse. You could identify some particular policy errors that made it much harder for the market to fix itself.
