Discuss the fiscal policies of the Reagan Administration.
Provide a graph (properly labeled) that supports your
discussion and that shows how the recessionary gap was closed.
Explain contractionary fiscal policy and it's tools.
Provide a graph (properly labeled) that shows an inflationary
gap AND the shifts that contractionary fiscal policy will create to
solve the gap in your above explanation.
In the early eighties, under the Reagan administration,
macroeconomic policies in the United States were characterized by
relatively expansionary fiscal policy (fueled by increased defense
spending and tax cuts) and very tight monetary policy. Compared to
an alternative policy mix which produced the same level of Y using
more expansionary monetary policy and more contractionary fiscal
policy. Contrast the two different policy mixes graphically and in
words. Explain what effects you would expect such policy mixes to
have on each...
Draw a properly labeled labor supply and demand graph above the
aggregate production graph. Indicate with a proper curve shift an
increase in capital and or technology. What does this do to
equilibrium wage, number of workers, total ouput, productivity, and
standard of living?
Show the changes for each scenario on a properly drawn
and labeled loanable funds market graph. Then describe
what happened to real interest rates and the quantity of loanable
funds. Each question is worth two points, one point for your
GRAPH and one for your description of what
happened.
1. The government is preparing to run a deficit in order to pay
for a war.
2. Due to worries about the future, Americans significantly
increase their savings.
3. A prolonged...
Each question must be accompanied by a graph, labeled properly.
Each answer (up, down, no change) should be accompanied by a one
line explanation.
For a small open economy where the world interest rate is below
the rate that would prevail if it were closed (equilibrium) predict
the effect of an increase in G on the following variables:
a) Real Interest rate b) Desired Saving c) Desired Investment d)
NX e) Does the country start out with a trade deficit...

Suppose there is a permanent increase in the labor force (L)
What will be the impact on the long-run level of real GDP
(Y)?
What will be the impact on private saving (Sprivate), public
saving (Spub), national saving (S)
What is the impact on the equilibrium interest rate?
Part I: Using a well labeled graph and words that explain your
graph, show the short run average variable cost curve and the
marginal cost curve.
Explain the shapes of the two cost curves.
Where do the two cost curves intersect? Why?
