81.Assume that in a certain economy the LM curve is given by Y = 2,000r – 2,000 + 2(M/P), and the IS curve is given by Y = 8,000 – 2,000r + u, where u is a shock that is equal to +200 half the time and –200 half the time. The price level (P) is fixed at 1.0. The natural rate of output is 4,000. The government wants to keep output as close as possible to 4,000 and does not care about anything else. Consider the following two policy rules: i. Set the money supply M equal to 1,000 and keep it there. ii. Manipulate M from day to day to keep the interest rate constant at 2 percent. a.Under rule i, what will Y be when u = +200? What will Y be under rule i when u = –200? b.Under rule ii, what will Y be when u = +200? What will Y be under rule ii, when u = –200? c.Which rule will keep output closer to 4,000? 82.Assume that in a certain economy the LM curve is given by Y = 2,000r – 2,000 + 2(M/P) + u, where u is a shock that is equal to +200 half the…
(1) Suppose the economy is in long-run equilibrium. If there is a sharp increase in the expected price level, what do we expect to happen? Select one: (A) In the short run, the SRAS curve will shift left, real GDP and price will fall. (B) In the short run, SRAS will shift right, real GDP will rise and prices will fall. (C) In the short run, AD will shift left, real GDP and prices will fall. (D) In the short run, LRAS and SRAS will shift left, causing real GDP to fall.
2. Suppose country A has a central bank with full credibility, and country B has a central bank with no credibility. Assume that in 2020, both countries are hit with the same COVID-19 shock.If the both central banks announce an autonomous easing policy to reduce the unemployment rate, a) How does the credibility of each country’s central bank affect the speed of adjustment of the aggregate supply curve to policy announcements? b) How does this result affect output stability? (Use aggregate supply and demand diagrams to demonstrate)
Suppose the money demand function is = 1000 + 0.2Y - 1000 (r + πe). Required (a.) Calculate velocity if Y = 2000, r = 0.06, and πe = 0.04. (b.) If the money supply (Ms) is 2600, what is the price level? (c.) Now suppose the real interest rate rises to 0.11, but Y and Ms are unchanged. What happens to velocity and the price level? (d.) For part (c.), if the nominal interest rate were to rise from 0.10 to 0.15 over the course of a year, with Y remaining at 2000, what would the inflation rate be?
Suppose we start with a general equilibrium, and there is a decrease in the effective tax rate on capital. What is the short-term effect of this shock? 1. real interest rate rises, and output rises 2. real interest rate rises, and output drops 3. real interest drops, and output rises 4. real interest rate drops, and output drops 5. None of the above
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. In the US and the UK, loans are…
16. Keynes (1936) argued that, from a policy perspective, everything that can be achieved by a nominal wage cut can be more effectively achieved through an appropriate monetary policy. (a) Does this statement hold in the deﬁcient-demand Keynesian model for a negative shock to (i) aggregate demand and (ii) aggregate labor productivity? (b) Does this statement hold in the new Keynesian model for a negative shock to (i) aggregate demand and (ii) aggregate labor productivity?
1) Assume that velocity (how many times a dollar is used in a given period) stays the same, and that GDP does not change. If the money supply doubles, what will happen to the general price level in the economy according to the quantity equation? A) The inflation rate will double. B) The price level will fall by a half. C) The price level will double. D)The price level will not change either. 2) During the financial crises and recession of 2007-09, the Fed lowered the federal funds rate target to 0-0.25%. However, long-term interest rates, like mortgage rates, were still fairly high. One thing the Fed did to lower long-term rates was that the Fed : A) bought long-term bonds B) lowered the long-term interest rates by lowering the reverse repo rate C) lowered the long-term interest rates by lowering the discount rate D) sold long-term bonds
1.Draw Aggregate Demand, Short Run Aggregate Supply, and Long Run Aggregate Supply as if an economy is in both short run and long run equilibrium. 2. Suppose the price of oil (an input in the production of many goods) decreases. Show how this will affect the model starting from (1) above. What happens to GDP, The Price Level, and Potential Output? Is the economy in a recessionary gap or an inflationary gap? 3. Suppose that consumers feel confident about their futures. Show how this will affect the model starting from (1) above. What happens to GDP, The Price Level, and Potential Output? Is the economy in a recessionary gap or an inflationary gap? 4. Explain in detail and show graphically how the economy will naturally (No government or central bank intervention) return to long run equilibrium after the event from (3) above (don’t consider the event from part 2; only 1 and 3 are relevant to this question) . (the numbers are the numbers of the question from example in question 3 the 1…
Consider an economic shock that results in a decrease in aggregate demand for the economy, creating an output gap where GDP is lower than potential.In the short run, what is the expected changes to firm production levels, the price level in the economy, and the unemployment rate?2. In the medium run, what happens to capacity utilization? How do changes to capacity and unemployment cause pressure for lower inflation? What is the expected response from the Federal Reserve? 3. In the long run, what is the expected outcome for GDP, unemployment, and inflation if monetary policy is successful?
7 Suppose that the money stock in an economy is 10,000, the velocity is 9, and the quantity of output is 15,000. What is the price level?
Suppose that the central bank observed a drop in real GDP, but does not know what caused this drop. -How would the central bank respond if it believed that GDP dropped because of a decline in total factor productivity, and that real business cycle theory correct? -How would the central bank respond if it believed that GDP dropped because of a wave of pessimism, and what the Keynesian coordination failure model is correct? -Explain your answers to both parts using diagrams.
