Question:Consider the following statement “The Australian economy is "weak", with households weighed down by slow wages growth and higher taxes, the OECD has declared in a report that backs lower interest rates, calls for more government spending and paves the way for unconventional monetary policies.” Use the dynamic AD-AS model to describe a longer run scenario where the government is trying to pursue higher economic growth using higher government spending, but were incorrect in their estimation of the major parameters governing long run full employment equilibrium. In your analysis discuss the implications of an incorrect scenario predicted by the government when effecting their stimulus policy on equilibrium output and (un)employment. Make sure to outline the assumptions you have made to reach your conclusion.

QUESTION 1 FOR REFERENCE IS BELOW BUT YOU DO NOT NEED TO ANSWER I ONLY INCLUDED IT BECAUSE IT IS NECESSARY TO COMPLETE QUESTION 3
1) Supply and demand
P = 0.5QS + 30
P = -0.4QD + 120
a) Given the above equations, produce a chart illustrating both
the supply and demand schedules in increments of 5 ranging from
price = 50 to price = 110.
b) Solve for the equilibrium price and quantity and show your
work.
c) Graph the result, labeling the axes, the supply and demand
curves, the equilibrium point, and the price and quantity amounts.
Use a proper scale.
d) Redo parts (a) through (c), this time reflecting a change in
the supply curve to P = 0.5QS + 7.5.
e) Give two possible explanations for what could have caused such a
change.
f) Now take the new graph (from part d) and assume that the
government institutes a price floor equal to P = 80. Describe in
detail what would be the impact on this market.
