AD-SRAS-LRAS model of the economy. Assume the SRAS curve is upward sloping. a. Congress has debated raising the minimum wage to over $10 per hour. Doing so would permanently increase the production costs to businesses, especially those relying on lower-skilled workers. Use the AD-AS model to discuss the macro impacts on the price level, real GDP and unemployment. b.The Federal Reserve has decided to design a policy response to the shift in part (a). What policy options are available and...

Consider AD, SRAS and LRAS for the economy of country Xantron. 1.1 Suppose Xantron is having real GDP lower than $1 million in a short-run situation, compared to Xantron's potential GDP. Give an example what might have caused this kind of situation in Xantron that could be mitigated by Monetary Policy. What kind of monetary policy could be useful for the economy of Xantron to restore potential GDP? Explain short-run and long-run dynamics ( changes/shifts/movements relating to AD, SRAS, LRAS,...

Suppose an economy is initially at long run equilibrium. Using LRAS, SRAS and AD graphs, show this initial point and label it as A. (a) Due to terrorist attacks, the consumption expenditure decreased by $150 billion. With an MPC of 0.5, illustrate this decline in consumption on the graph in (a) and also compute the impact of the decline in consumption on output level (Y). (b) If the government wants to use taxes to restore long run equilibrium, should the government...
