Review the problem in the Work It Out titled Interpreting the AD/AS Model. Like the information provided in that feature, Table 24.2 shows information on aggregate supply, aggregate demand, and the price level for the imaginary country of Xurbia. Plot the AD/AS diagram from the data. Identify the equilibrium. Imagine that, as a result of a government tax cut, aggregate demand becomes higher by 50 at every price level. Identify the new equilibrium. How will the new equilibrium alter output? How will it alter the price level? What do you think will happen to employment?
Suppose Mexico, one of our largest trading partners and purchaser of a large quantity of our exports, goes into a recession. Use the AD/AS model to determine the likely impact on our equilibrium GDP and price level.
Name some government policies that cod cause aggregate demand to shift.
Attached: figure 1: Hayek’s (Classical) AD-AS Model Question 1 Why does Hayek’s aggregate supply curve always lead to an equilibrium level of national output equal to the full-employment level of real GDP? Question 2 Hayek says that markets will heal themselves and that government should not intervene. How does the AD-AS model reflect Hayek’s idea that governments cannot increase real GDP beyond the level that the free market economy is able to produce? Question 3 Do you believe that the Hayek’s classical AD-AS model explain the factors that cause changes (shifts) in AS realistically? Why or why not?
Using the aggregate demand and aggregate supply (AD-AS) diagram, explain what will happen to the equilibrium price level and Real GDP when each of the following events occurs: (i) A technological advancement in agricultural sector. (ii) The Malaysian government’s economic stimulus package of RM8 billion. (iii) An appreciation of Ringgit Malaysian (RM).
Part B: Aggregate Demand (AD) Curve shows the relationship between the economy’s price level and real GDP demanded. In other words, real GDP demanded by different groups of buyers, i.e., Consumers (C), Businesses (I), Government (G), and Net Amount by Foreigners (Export - Import), at different price levels give us points on a graph, which are connected to form a curve called AD curve. Review the textbook chapter, and conduct internet research to discuss determinants of AD or factors that shift AD curve.
2. An introduction to the AD-AS model The aggregate demand and aggregate supply model is a useful simplification of the macroeconomy used to explain short-run fluctuations in economic activity around its long-run trend. The vertical axis of a diagram of the aggregate demand and aggregate supply curves measures which of the following? An economy’s price level The amount of a particular representative good produced in the economy The price of a particular representative good produced in the economy Which of the following are reasons that the short-run aggregate supply curve slopes upward? Check all that apply. As the price level rises, firms expand their production because they can sell their output for more money. As the price level rises, firms find it more profitable to hire workers at any given wage. As the price level rises, firms decrease their investment because it is more expensive to purchase capital.
The imaginary country of Harris Island has the aggregate supply and aggregate demand curves as Table 24.3 shows. a. Identify the (i) equilibrium basing from the AD/AS diagram attached. b. Would you expect unemployment in this economy to be relatively high or low? c. Would you expect concern about inflation in this economy to be relatively high or low? d. Imagine that consumers begin to lose confidence about the state of the economy, and so AD becomes lower by 275 at every price level. Identify the new aggregate equilibrium. e. How will the shift in AD affect the original output, price level, and employment?
Using aggregate demand and aggregate supply, graph the effects on the price level and GDP of each of the following. Draw a large graph and label all axes, initial and final equilibrium points, direction of shift if any, all curves and lines, equilibrium values on the x- and y-axes. State the conclusion in words. a. A cut in income taxes b. An increase in military spending c. A drop in export demand by foreign purchasers d. An increase in imports e. A decline in business investment spending

Question: The attached picture shows the aggregate demand/aggregate supply situation in the U.S. What is the value of actual GDP? What is the value of the GDP deflator? Assume that people and businesses become pessimistic about the future of the economy; how will this affect the graph above in the short run? (i.e., which curve(s) will shift, and in which direction?) After the short-run event in part b, what will happen to actual GDP? What will happen to the price level? After the short-run event in part b, describe how the economy is doing in terms of the business cycle (i.e., recession, full employment, expansion). What long-run adjustments will be made in this economy as a result of the short-run changes in part c? How will the curve(s) shift in response to these long-run adjustments? After the long-run adjustments in part e, describe how the economy is doing in terms of the business cycle (i.e., recession, full employment, expansion).
