Consider the Keynesian Model for the Open Economy with Government:
Planned Expenditures: AE = C + I + G + X - IM
Consumption: C = 435 + 0.72 (Y- T)
Net Tax Revenue: T = 130 + 0.26 Y
Gross Investment: I = 675
Government Expenditures: G = 540
Exports: X = 545
Imports: IM = 110 + 0.12 Y
Potential Output: Yp = 3,550.742
Section 1: Model Questions
Part 1. What is the slope of the AE curve?
Part 2. What is the vertical intercept of the AE curve?
Part 3. Calculate the equilibrium ouput (Ye).
Part 4. Calculate the change in Government Expenditures (ΔG) required to close the output gap (Yf-Ye).
Part 5. Calculate the change in autonomous Taxes (ΔTo) required to close the output gap (Yf-Ye).

Assume a Ricardian (Comparative Advantage) place. Also assume that Southland requires 8 hours for laptop computers and 2 hours for desktop computers, while the rest of the world (RoW) needs 4 hours for laptops or 2 hours for desktops. Each country has 1000 labor hrs. available. Additionally, assume these countries decide to open for trade and they specialize in products that they have comparative advantage.

A "political business cycle" suggest that:
Multiple Choice
cyclical swings in the economy are produced by the inherent instability found in capitalist economies.
there is a trade-off among goals that tends to make the economic policies of state and local governments procyclical.
the tools of fiscal policy may be used for political gains and reelection.
the cyclically adjusted budget is a better indicator of the state of the economy than the actual budget.
1b.
What are the goals of fiscal policy?
Multiple Choice
Increase deflation and increase nominal GDP.
Increase profits and reduce expected returns.
Control inflation and promote full employment.
Increase nominal wages and reduce real interest rates.

In this problem, we use your critical values table to explore the significance of r based on different sample sizes. (a) Is a sample correlation coefficient ρ = 0.82 significant at the α = 0.01 level based on a sample size of n = 3 data pairs? What about n = 14 data pairs? (Select all that apply.) No, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is smaller than that for a sample size of n = 14 and α = 0.01. No, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is greater than or equal to that for a sample size of n = 3 and α = 0.01. Yes, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is greater than or equal to that for a sample size of n = 3 and α = 0.01. Yes, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is smaller than that for a sample size of n = 3 and α = 0.01. Yes, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is smaller than that for a sample size of n = 14 and α = 0.01. No, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is smaller than that for a sample size of n = 3 and α = 0.01. Yes, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is greater than or equal to that for a sample size of n = 14 and α = 0.01. No, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is greater than or equal to that for a sample size of n = 14 and α = 0.01. Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. (b) Is a sample correlation coefficient ρ = 0.42 significant at the α = 0.05 level based on a sample size of n = 18 data pairs? What about n = 26 data pairs? (Select all that apply.) Yes, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is greater than or equal to that for a sample size of n = 26 and α = 0.05. No, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is smaller than that for a sample size of n = 18 and α = 0.05. Yes, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is smaller than that for a sample size of n = 18 and α = 0.05. Yes, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is smaller than that for a sample size of n = 26 and α = 0.05. No, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is greater than or equal to that for a sample size of n = 26 and α = 0.05. Yes, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is greater than or equal to that for a sample size of n = 18 and α = 0.05. No, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is greater than or equal to that for a sample size of n = 18 and α = 0.05. No, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is smaller than that for a sample size of n = 26 and α = 0.05. Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. (c) Is it true that in order to be significant, a ρ value must be larger than 0.90? larger than 0.70? larger than 0.50? What does sample size have to do with the significance of ρ? Explain your answer. No, a larger sample size means that a smaller absolute value of the correlation coefficient might be significant. No, sample size has no bearing on whether or not the correlation coefficient might be significant. Yes, a larger correlation coefficient of 0.70 means that the data will be significant. Yes, a larger correlation coefficient of 0.90 means that the data will be significant. Yes, a larger correlation coefficient of 0.50 means that the data will be significant.
