- Consider a macroeconomic model for an open economy with the government. Consumption is given by C = 250 + bYd, where b = 0.8, Yd = (1-t)Y, and t = 0.1. Investment is given by I = 1,200 – 2,000R, and net export is given by X = 525 – 0.1Y – 500R. Assume that G = 1,200. Money demand is given by (Md/P) = 0.1283Y – 1,000R. Assume that P = 1, and the fixed money supply is given by (Ms/P) = 900. Drive the expression for the IS curve from the model. Drive the expression for the LM curve from the model. Drive the IS-LM equilibrium from the model.IS-LM model is defined via seven equations given below: C=15+0.8(Y-T) T= -25+0.25Y I=65-R G=94 X=50-10-0.1Y L=5Y-50R M=1500 C: Consumption, Y: Income, T: Tax, I: Investment, R: Interest Rate, G: Government Expenditure, X: Net Exports, L: Money Demand and M: Money Supply. Solve this system for Y and R in the matrix format by reducing it to IS and LM equations. Calculate government and trade deficits. Note that IS-LM structure is based on Y and R.Consider an economy described by the following equations. Y= C + I + GC= 100 + .75 (Y - T)I= 500 - 50rG= 125T= 100 Where: Y is GDP, C is consumption, I is investment, G is government spending, T is taxes and r is the rate of interest. Answer the questions based on the following equations above. a. What is the value of the multiplier? b. What is the equilibrium equation for Y? Show your solution. c. Suppose the Central Bank policy is to adjust the money supply to maintain the interest rate at 4 percent, so r=4. What is the value of output? Show your solution. d. Assuming that no change in fiscal policy, what is the effect of a reduction in interest rate from 4 percent to 3 percent on equilibrium output. Show your solution. e. In this case, explain the policy that was used by the policymaker to target the aggregate demand.
- Consider a scenario of a closed economy in the short run where price level is fixed. Assume that both taxes and money supply increase in a way that keep output constant in equilibrium (suppose that the marginal propensity to consume is less than one). Which of the following may result from the policy change? a) It will lead to an increase in investment but a decrease in consumption.b) It will result in an increase in investment but a decrease in government spending.c) It will lead to an increase in investment and private saving.d) It will decrease investment but increase in public saving.The following question relates only to the equilibrium in the goods market IN A CLOSED ECONOMY and asks you to carry out a graphical analysis using both the Keynesian cross diagram together with the IS-MP diagram. >>) Suppose after the government has implemented the reduction in taxation that the central bank wants to keep the level of investment at the same level as before the tax reduction. How can the central bank intervene in the market to achieve this goal? Explain and illustrate graphically how the central bank can keep investment at the same level as before. Is there any additional impact of the central bank intervention on output, consumption and interest rates? If so what is the impact?Suppose that the following system of equations describe the macroeconomy of a hypothetical country: Y= C(y)+I(i)+G : IS or goods market M/p=L(i,y) : LM or money market a) Get the total differentials of the above system of equations and put your answer in matrix representation. b) Taking money supply and government expenditure as exogenous and the price level as fixed, determine and provide economic intuition for the signs and magnitudes of the following multipliers i) dY/dG ii) di/dG c) For a simultaneous increase in both the interest elasticity of investment and interest elasticity demand for money parameters, determine the net effect on the values of the multipliers in part b). d) For a horizontal LM curve, determine the numerical values of your answers in part b) above if: Marginal propensity to consume=5/6 Tax rate=0.25 Interest elasticity of investment=5 Interest elasticity of demand for money=50 Income elasticity of demand for money=2
- Consider the monetary intertemporal model. Payments can be made with either credit cards or with money, and we denote the amount of transactions in real terms with credit cards as X. The bank is willing to supply credit card services as a function of Xs(q) where q is the cost per unit of credit. The money supply is given by Ms and the goods market and the labour market are as we described in the real intertemporal model Assume that the government introduces a tax on credit card services. That is, if a consumer or a firm holds a credit card balance of X, they are taxed tX where t is the tax rate. Determine the effects on the equilibriums price and the quantity of credit card services, the demand for money, and the price levelConsider following IS-LM model: C = 200 + 0.25 · YD I = 150 + 0. 25 · Y – 1, 000 · i G = 250 T = 200 D M = 2 · Y – 8, 000 · i M = 1,600 P e) Solve for the equilibrium values of C and I! f) Solve for the equilibrium values of Y, i, C and I, if the money suppl increases to 1,840! g) Solve for the equilibrium values of Y, i, C and I, if government spending increases to 400 (the money supply is 1,600)!Q11 Assume that investment does NOT depend on the interest rate. A reduction in the money supply will cause which of the following for this economy? Select one: a. no change in output. b. no change in the interest rate. c. a reduction in investment. d. an increase in investment.
