Aggregate Demand and Supply Models

Two very important economic policies that point in different directions of fiscal policy include the Keynesian economics and Supply Side economics. They are opposites on the economic policy field and were introduced in the 20th century, but are known for their influence on the economy in the United States both were being used to try and help the economy during the Great Depression.

An increase or decrease in the unemployment rate can have a multiple effects on the Australian economy, both beneficial as well detrimental to the economic conditions and the societal outlook.

John Maynard Keynes was an economist instrumental in the theories that aided in the construction of the New Deal during the great depression. He believed that it was appropriate for government to use tax and spend policies in order to stimulate the government. He felt that by using this fiscal policy it would keep the country out of a recession or depression. Beings it is an election year, and the economy affects everyone in the country, I wanted to look into the Keynes theories and discover if it is necessarily a good economic choice.

Given the critical circumstances the United States economy faces today, the current fiscal policy, in addition to the changes that will be made in the future, is under intense scrutiny. During the Obama administration, which will soon come to an end in about six months, a variety of policies were created in attempts to create employment, raise our GDP, and boost the state of the economy, among other ideas. The fiscal policies created by Congress and the President demonstrate success in some areas, while failing in other areas, as many, including myself, would argue. As the 2016 election quickly approaches, it is important to remember previous fiscal mistakes and successes, and the current economy, in order to better grasp what will be necessary for a successful fiscal policy in the future.

Write a 350- to 700-word paper in which you research the current state of the economy. Include answers the following:

What is the "current macroeconomic situation" in the U.S. (e.g. is the U.S. economy currently concerned about unemployment, inflation, recession, etc.)? What fiscal policies and monetary policies would be appropriate at this time?

When the Federal government has to find ways to regain any money lost they lean on the expansionary Fiscal policy and the monetary policy to regain money into the economy. Whether, a change in taxes or even government spending. Even to the three major tools of the expansionary monetary policy to focus on. In the first part of this paper, I will discuss the expansionary fiscal policy and how the Federal government was involved and the changes that needed to be made to taxes, government spending. The second part of this paper, I will discuss the monetary policy and the tools the Federal Reserve used when under this policy. The expansionary fiscal policy was out to kick start the economy, and the expansionary monetary policy was out to change interest rate, and influence money supply. When discussing these two policies you have to think about one aspect when will it ever stop? Will a policy always have to be part of the economy to help the government one way or another?

What is the state of the US economy? Has a cloud fallen on the US and harder economic times coming? Is continued decline require a cautious posture? “It's hard to decipher the state of the economy from headlines.” Although the economy is not equal to pre-recession times which was more than six years ago, the “jobs lost to the Great Recession have been replaced. Unemployment is down. The stock market has generally prospered.” What role does consumer

The analysis will identify two microeconomics and two macroeconomics principles or concepts from the simulation, and explain why each principle or concept is in the category of macroeconomics or microeconomics. The analysis will identify at least one shift of the supply curve, and one shift of the demand curve from the simulation and what causes the shifts. The analysis will show for each shift, how it would affect the equilibrium price, quantity, and decision making. It will detail application to learned material about supply and demand from the simulation to workplace or real-world product. It will detail how concepts

The Congressional Budget Office (2012) assesses short-term impact of fiscal policy by relying on the predicted impact of changes in monetary policy by the Federal Reserve and the products of Macroeconomic Advisors and HIS Global Insight (Reichling and Whalen, 2012). The models used by these organizations assume economic output depends on labor supply, technology, available capital, and demand for goods and services. The validity of this model depends largely on the assumption that economic cycles recur with minor changes only.

Americans have been bombarded by new worries in recent days with the war in Libya, unrest in much of the Middle East, and the seemingly endless series of catastrophes in Japan as reported by a recent Gallup poll measuring economic confidence. Added to that, there is a weak job market, increasing fuel prices, and fierce budget battles in Congress, obviously, it is clear the U.S. economy still faces

Weak aggregate demand and rising costs due to still high energy and food prices put the US economy in a tricky situation, one in which the Federal Reserve is forced to make the tough decision between tackling the unemployment problem (jobless rates have risen to 5.7%) or the inflation problem (price levels have also risen 5.7% this year, the highest inflation in 17 years). Rising prices and rising joblessness are both harmful to the economy, but when energy and food prices drive up the price level, while week investment and consumer spending lead to falling overall demand in the economy, the conditions exist where joblessness and prices can rise simultaneously. This is America’s situation at present.

Theories about how the economy works and what will happen in the economy where there is monetary policy or fiscal policy intervention are appropriate in assisting policy-makers understand the possible implications of decisions they make or are under consideration. However, they are rarely complete models and often outcomes cannot be predicted. Reintroduction of a theory suggests that new evidence in support of the theory has been reported.

A. Fracking technology matures and significantly reduces the costs of producing oil and natural gas.

Accordingly, we will first "analyze" competitive markets, by discussing demand and supply separately. Then we will try to put them back together (synthesize them) in order to understand the working of competitive markets.
