Case: Offshore Outsourcing and Imports

Imagine that you are an economist working for the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). You receive a letter from the chair of the Senate Budget Committee:

Dear CBO economist,

Congress is about to consider the president’s request to cut our country’s offshore outsourcing by 50 percent and imports of durable goods by 40 percent. Before deciding whether to endorse the request, my committee would like your analysis. I wonder if you would advise us:

1. How cutting offshore outsourcing and imported durable goods will affect the domestic investment, domestic interest rate, NCO, exchange rate, and net export in our country?
2. What do you think will happen to real GDP, unemployment, and the price level in our country?
3. Is there any chance of this new policy to trigger stagflation in our economy? In case, if that happens, what kind of coordinated fiscal and monetary policy would be recommended to change the situation?

Sincerely

Committee Chair

Australia's Sticky Unemployment Rate Underscores Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA)'s Monetary Policy
Challenge
Australia’s jobless rate held above 5% in May despite a surge in hiring, underscoring the Reserve Bank’s
challenge to drive down unemployment and stoke inflation.
RBA Governor Philip Lowe has made clear that easing monetary policy is not the ideal path to boosting hiring
and investment, and has urged the government to undertake structural reforms. The government is trying to
pass tax cuts that is estimated could stimulate the economy.
While the economy added 42,300 roles last month, new entrants were absorbed by a jobs market that
swelled to a record, the statistics bureau said in Sydney Thursday. That left the jobless rate at 5.2%, which is
well above the 4.5% level the RBA estimates is needed to revive price pressures.
The result was further diminished by most jobs being part-time and fewer hours worked, suggesting a less
robust labour market and likely explaining the currency rate decreasing. RBA Governor Philip Lowe resumed
cutting interest rates last week after a three-year hiatus as he bids to spur hiring and return inflation to
target.
Australia’s labour market has shown surprising resilience as hiring persisted despite weakness across much
of the economy. One explanation is that much of the hiring is coming from government-related programs
that are unrelated to prevailing economic conditions.
For much of the past year, Australia’s debt-laden households have cut spending as they grapple with
stagnant wages and watch falling house prices erode their wealth. Consumption accounts for almost 60% of
GDP and weaker spending has slowed economic growth.
