Explain the difference between a parallel and non-parallel shift
in interest rates. Then explain whether the duration matching
hedging approach works for both a non-parallel and parallel shift
interest rates.
Using Larmor's formula, explain why there is no reflected light
for the "p" polarization (parallel to the incidence plane) after a

will shift right, left, or remain unchanged. Explain also the
effect on the trade balance.
(a) Investors expect an appreciation of the home currency

AEp line, rGDP demanded, and the AD curve for the following changes
in spending (MPC=.9). Show all work, and illustrate your results
graphically. a. $8 billion increase in investment spending. b. $5
billion decrease in government spending. c. $20 billion increase in
autonomous consumption spending....
