Identify the most accurate statement. A price floor will have live largest effect if it is set: substantially above the equilibrium price slightly above the equilibrium price slightly below the equilibrium price substantially below the equilibrium price
Use Table 26.3 to answer the following questions. Sketch an aggregate supply and aggregate demand diagram. What is the equilibrium output and price level? If aggregate demand shifts right, what is equilibrium output? If aggregate demand shifts left, what is equilibrium output? In this scenario, would you suggest using aggregate demand to alter the level of output or to control any inflationary increases in the price level?
Describe the mechanism by which supply creates its osi1 demand.
Suppose firms become optimistic about futurebusiness conditions and invest heavily in new capitalequipment.a. Draw an aggregate-demand/aggregate-supplydiagram to show the short-run effect of thisoptimism on the economy. Label the new levels ofprices and real output. Explain in words why theaggregate quantity of output supplied changes.b. Now use the diagram from part (a) to show thenew long-run equilibrium of the economy. (Fornow, assume there is no change in the long-runaggregate-supply curve.) Explain in words whythe aggregate quantity of output demanded changesbetween the short run and the long run.c. How might the investment boom affect thelong-run aggregate-supply curve? Explain.

Why will a price level of 150 not be an equilibriumprice level in this economy? Why not 250?c. Suppose that buyers desire to purchase $200 billion ofextra real output at each price level. Sketch in the newaggregate demand curve as AD1. What factors mightcause this change in aggregate demand? What is thenew equilibrium price level and level of real output?
Explain why the following statements are false.a. “The aggregate-demand curve slopes downwardbecause it is the horizontal sum of the demandcurves for individual goods.”b. “The long-run aggregate-supply curve is verticalbecause economic forces do not affect long-runaggregate supply.”
