Assume the economy begins with potential real GDP = $13.7 trillion, while actual real GDP = $14 trillion and the Price Level (GDP Deflator) = 210 in the AD/AS model. A year later the Price Level = 212 and actual real GDP = $14.1. Based on their relative effects on the AD/AS model, which of the following scenarios best explains this new outcome? The effect of a(n) Group of answer choices: increase in consumer spending is MORE than the effect of a decrease in natural gas prices. increase in wages is LESS than the effect of an increase in consumption taxes. decrease in physical capital is LESS than the effect of a decrease in oil prices. increase in oil prices is MORE than the effect of negative business expectations.

Macroeconomic forecasts from different computer models are usually Very different because the models are based on different data sets, different assumptions, and different macroeconomic theories. Very similar because the models use the same data, and standardized assumptions so it does not matter whether a supply-side economist or a Keynesian economist conducts the research. Very similar because the models must conform to high government regulatory standards. About the same because political objectives never conflict with good economic policies. Very different because it is impossible to determine who funded the research.

AS shifts left and prices increase while real GDP decreases c. AS shifts right and prices decrease while real GDP increases d. AD shifts left and prices decreases while real GDP decreases
