Question #4. Individual income taxes directly affect personal disposable incomes which in turn affect the domestic demand for goods and services. Production costs depend substantially on oil prices. Market expectations are: (1) income taxes in the U.S. will INCREASE substantially and (2) oil prices will remain relatively unchanged. Using market expectations, what do you expect the U.S. output and prices in the coming years? Assume we are moving from the old equilibrium to a new equilibrium. Please state clearly your assumptions and include a graph to support your answer.
26. Assuming Aggregate Demand and Aggregate Supply are initially at ADo and ASo respectively, which of the following explains the adjustment towards long-run equilibrium depicted in Figure A? a) Unemployment (resulting from the short-run equilibrium being below LRAS) causes wages to decline, which increases AS until long-run equilibrium is attained at full employment level of income and a lower price level. b) Government spending is increased, increasing AD to a level sufficient to attain long-run equilibrium at full employment level of income and a higher price level. c) In attempting to produce beyond the economy's natural level of GDP, producers bid up wages and prices of other resources, causing the AS to decrease to the point where long-run equilibrium is restored. d) Taxes are increased reducing AD to a level consistent with long-run equilibrium.

Assume that the macro-economy is initially in short -run equilibrium. What happens to the equilibrium price level and equilibrium level of real GDP if interest rates in the economy fall? Question 4 options: a) Both the equilibrium price level and the equilibrium level of real GDP decrease. b) The equilibrium price level increases and the equilibrium level of real GDP decreases. c) Both the equilibrium price level and the equilibrium level of real GDP increase. d) The equilbrium price level falls and the equilibrium level of real GDP increases.
11. Which of he following statements accurately explain the scenario illustrated by these diagrams? a) Assuming ADo and AEo are the original positions of the AD and AE curves respectively, the original situation illustrated is on of a recessionary gap of 10. b) To restore full-employment equilibrium Aggregate Expenditures must be increased to AE1 which is equivalent to shifting the AD curve to AD1 c) Because the short-run Aggregate Supply (AS) curve is upward sloping, the shift in AD will be associated with some products price inflation. This will cause the AE curve to decline from AE1 to AE* because of the wealth, interest rate, and trade effects of inflation. d) All the above. e) Only (a) and (b) are true f) None of the above.
Assume the economy of Germany is in a long run equilibrium with full employment. Draw a correctly labeled graph of short run aggregate supply, long run aggregate supply, and aggregate demand. Show each of the following Equilibrium output, labeled Y1. Equilibrium price level, labeled PL1 2. Suppose that there is a significant boom in the German stock market, causing all stocks to increase in value by 15%. On your graph in part A, show the effect this will have on the equilibrium in the short run, labeling the new equilibrium output and price level Y2 and PL2, respectively. 3. Using a correctly labeled graph of the Phillips Curve, show how this change will affect the economy. 4. What two fiscal policy options does the federal government have to fix the market imbalance? Explain how each would affect the economy.
Suppose the economy is operating at potential GDP when It experiences an increase in export demand. How might the economy increase production of exports to meet this demand, given that the economy is already at full employment?
13. Assuming that an economy’s aggregate demand is given by its domestic consumption C and investment I, AD = C + I = c0 + c1Y + I. In the economy’s goods market equilibrium, this equals its output: AD = Y. Solving for Y this yields: Y = [1/(1 -c1 )] (c0+ I) Given this equation, which of the following statements is correct? 1. The multiplier is given by 1 – c1. 2. The boost in the economy’s output is the same, regardless of whether the aggregate demand shock comes from an increase in investment I or in autonomous consumption c0. 3. The larger the marginal propensity to consume (c1), the smaller the multiplier. 4. If c1 = 1/3, then a £1 million increase in investment would result in a £2 million increase in output. 14.

Suppose the aggregate demand and short-run aggregate supply schedules for an economy whose potential output equals $2,700 are given by the table. Aggregate Quantity of Goods and Services Price Level Demanded Supplied 0.50 $3,500 $1,000 0.75 3,000 2,000 1.00 2,500 2,500 1.25 2,000 2,700 1.50 1,500 2,800 What is the short-run equilibrium level of real GDP"
Question 27 The slope of a long-run aggregate supply curve is vertical, because full-employment output depends directly on the price level. vertical, because full-employment output is independent of the price level. horizontal, because full-employment output is independent of the price level. upward sloping, because as the price level rises, firms will increase output. upward sloping, because rising prices reduce real wealth and spending.
