PROBLEM: The simple Keynesian model (SKM) implies that the government can boost GDP in the short-run by raising planned expenditure (E) on "G" since output (Y) must equal E = C+I+G. Keynes recognised that additionalE from any sources would increase the demand for money. Consequently, he had a separate money market to show how a fiscal expansion would increase the interest rate. A theoretical problem arises if we also allow the negative feedback from a higher interest rate (r) on private investment expenditure by settingI = I (r) such that if r increases, thenI decreases. It concerns potential inconsistency between balancing E and Y in the SKM and ensuring the money market balance.
Identify the theoretical problem precisely in your words. Explain how the Hicksian IS-LM model solves this theoretical PROBLEM.

Imagine you have a farm with three plots of land. There is one in the valley, one on the hill and one in the swamp. Each plot can either grow corn or wheat. Assume that planting, harvesting, etc. is free. The quantity of each crop on each plot is given by the following table.
Plot Corn Wheat
Valley 200 300
Hill 150 450
Swamp 100 100
a. Draw a PPF for your farm. Indicate all slopes and intercepts.
b. If the price of corn is $5/unit and the price of wheat is $2/unit, what should you produce on each plot in order to maximize revenue? (We haven't said the word "revenue" yet but it means the total market value of the crops.)
c. If the price of corn is $2.50 and the price of wheat is $2, what do you want to produce on each plot?

On 1st of January your CFO decides that 1 million euros will be needed at 1st of April for a time span of three months, so you will be looking for a loan and a way to hedge the interest risk. Current interest rates are 5.5% and they are expected to go down, while inflation is expected to stay at 1%. Forward rate agreements for your kind of loan are offering 5.0% and you are interested in securing this rate for your future loan so you enter this contract for the notional amount.
1) State how would the FRA be denominated
2) Calculate the outcome of the FRA, the expected interest cashflow, the effective cashflow and effective interest rate of the strategy, if at April 1st the interest rates have moved to:
a) 4.5%
b) 6.0%
3) Determine at what spot interest rate the FRA would expire worthless.

(Use the string class to solve the problem)
Write a program (in c++) that can be used to train the user to use less sexist language by suggesting alternative versions of sentences given by the user. The program will ask for a sentence, read the sentence into a string variable, and replace all occurrences of masculine pronouns with gender-neutral pronouns. For example, it will replace “he” with “she or he”, and “him” with “her or him”.
Be sure to preserve uppercase letters for the first word of the sentence. The pronoun “his” can be replaced by “her(s) or his”; your program need not decide between “her” and “hers”. Allow the user to repeat this for more sentences until the user says she or he is done.
You need to take care of the following string replacements:
he/she -> she or he
him/her -> her or him
his/her(s) -> her(s) or his
