The impact of Keynesian Policy can be diminished by secondary effects such as: a)Inflation – to the extent increasing Aggregate Demand causes inflation the impact on expanding the economy is dissipated by higher product prices b)Crowding-out effect of expansionary fiscal policy - To the extent expansionary Keynesian policy requires a government budget deficit and if this is financed by government borrowing, it may lead to rising interest rates, which will decrease private borrowing to finance investment spending as well as some consumption spending. c)Crowding out effect of monetary policy – As Expansionary policy leads to greater spending, the demand for money for transactions purposes (to buy products) increases, which may increase the interest rate which will crowd out private spending. d)All the above e)(a) and (b) only
The two principles that make a person a “Keynesian” consist of the ideology that the private economy may not reach full employment and that government spending can spur the economy into filling the gap. Give two examples that may be applied to the real world.
The Keynesian economic framework is based on an assumption that: A) an increase in government spending will cause the aggregate demand curve to shift to the left. B) people can afford a high level of government services. C) prices and wages are sticky and do not adjust rapidly. D) an increase in government spending will cause the aggregate demand curve to shift to the left.
Keynesian economics defends budget balance. However, according to economists, budget balance may exacerbate the effects of the business cycle. Isn't it also a Keynesian view to use discretionary policy to smoothen the business cycles? Aren't those two views contradictory?
Consider two standard Keynesian models. In Model 1, there are two types of consumers, Type A,who have low marginal propensities to consume, and Type B, who have high marginalpropensities to consume. In Model 2, there are only Type A consumers. Then, a decrease in theexogenous taxes would lead to higher output in Model 2 than in Model 1

The effect of the COVID-19 Pandemic in Australia Australian authorities faced significant health and economic policy challenges during the COVID- 19 Pandemic, shutting down certain industries to protect public health. This shutdown resulted in almost 1 million jobs lost in April and May 2020, and a dramatic fall in consumers’ and firms’ confidence to spend and invest. Describe the effect that a fall in confidence had upon output in the Australian economy using a Keynesian model of the macroeconomy. Ensure that your analysis includes the following: a. the components of expenditure that are affected and why; b. the adjustment process associated with moving from an initial equilibrium (before the onset of the pandemic) to a new equilibrium (after the significant job losses), i.e. the mechanism that leads to a change in output (including a relevant diagram); c. an explanation of what the multiplier is and its role in explaining the fall in output; and d. a discussion of the policy…
Consumption, investment, government spending, exports, and imports are: Group of answer choices all complementary elements of a market-orientated economy. some of the opposing elements found in a market-orientated economy. all components of aggregate demand. some of the building blocks of Keynesian analysis.
In the Keynesian model, if the economy is experiencing a recessionary gap of $825 billion and the marginal propensity to save is .20, which one of the following combinations of spending and taxing changes should the government implement in order to eliminate the gap? 1. Increase government spending by $350 billion and decrease taxes by $350 billion. 2. Decrease government spending by $125 billion and increase taxes by $50 billion. 3. Decrease government spending by $250 billion and increase taxes by $150 billion. 4. Increase government spending by $600 billion and decrease taxes by $225 billion. 5. Increase government spending by $100 billion and decrease taxes by $100 billion. 6. Increase government spending by $125 billion and decrease taxes by $50 billion.
According to traditional Keynesian analysis, a tax cut has a larger effect on aggregate demand than an increase in government expenditures of the same size. a.true b.false
Assume a closed economy: Y=C+I+G In the Keynesian Cross model, as in the slides, assuming the marginal propensity to consume, c1, is less than one, which FOUR of the following statements are correct? Select one or more: A. The government sends cheques to all taxpayers, worth a total of £1 billion. As long as at least some of this results in higher autonomous consumption, GDP will rise by more than £1 billion. B. A rise in government spending on benefits or other transfers will increase Y by more than the increase in benefits C. If the c1 = 0.75 the multiplier will be 4 D. A fall in autonomous consumption will reduce Y by more than the initial fall E. The government sends cheques to all taxpayers, worth a total of £1billion. As a result, autonomous consumption increases by £0.5 billion. As long as c1 > 0.5, GDP will rise by more than £1 billion F. If consumers seek to save more by reducing their autonomous consumption, c0, this will reduce output.
