As you know the corona vires has cause a massive decline (shift to the left) in the aggregate demand curve. Remember that the GDP is equal to consumption (C), gross investment (I), government expenditures (G) and net exports (Imports minus Exports or Ex) and this spending GDP is equal to the Price times the Quantity of all final goods and services (P * Q = Y) and also equal to the money supply times the velocity of circulation (M * V = Y). So the full formula is listed below:

             aggregate demand                                             money and spending

                C   +   I   +   G   +   Ex                   =                    P * Q = M * V

According to the text per chapter 15 the main argument between the Monetarist and the Keynesians is the velocity of money (V). Is it stable or unstable. Three questions for you to answer:

1. The Federal Reserve Bank has been increasing (decreasing) the money supply. Why?

2. If as the Monetarist believe, V is stable, what would happen to prices (P)?

3. Since the consumer price index (CPI) has fallen over the last two months, what must have happened to aggregate demand or Q?

Suppose that Consumption = $190 billion, Taxes = $60 b, Net Investment = $30 b, Depreciation = $50 b, Government Spending = $100 b, interest rate is 2.5%, Exports = $40 b, and Imports = $70 b. What does this country's Gross Domestic Product equal?

b. Real GDP per Capita does not account for inflation

c. Real GDP per capita does not account for services (it only counts physical goods)

Suppose that Consumption = $200 billion, Gross Investment = $120 b, Depreciation = $80 b, Government Spending = $110 b, Exports = $80 b and Imports = $50 b. What does net investment equal as a percent of Gross Domestic Product?
