Consider the basic neoclassical model. Suppose there is an increase in At. Draw 2 versions of the model, one in which labor supply is relatively elastic (sensitive to the real wage) and one with a relatively inelastic labor supply (relatively insensitive to the real wage). How do the magnitudes of changes in Y, ri, Wt (nominal wage) and N: (labor) depend on the sensitivity of labor supply to the real wage? Explain

Neoclassical perspective is a- re sisitation of classical econolics, which states that short run dynamica of the economy dissipate very quicly due to inflexible porices. b- revisitation of classical eonomics, which statets that long run fynamics of the economy dissipate slowlllly due to inflexibilyti prices d- re visitation of classical economics which states that short run dynamics of the economy dissipate very quickly due to felexible prices
Summarize the Neoclassical model: A. The neoclassical model is built on the importance of aggregate demand as a cause of business cycles and a degree of wage and price rigidity, and thus does a sound job of explaining many recessions and why cyclical unemployment rises and falls. B. The neoclassical model emphasizes aggregate supply by focusing on the underlying determinants of output and employment in markets, and thus tends to put more emphasis on economic growth and how labor markets work. C. The neoclassical model is built on the importance of aggregate supply as a cause of business cycles and a degree of wage and price rigidity, but does a poor job of explaining many recessions and why cyclical unemployment rises and falls.
Draw and properly label an AD-AS model to show Keynesian, intermediate, and neoclassical zones. Then briefly explain the level of unemployment, inflation and real gdp in each zone, and confirm wether all three goals of a macro economy are being achieved in each zone .
suppose a Keynesian macroeconomic model is characterized with the following equations: Y = C + I + G Goods markets C = C = 320 + 0.8YdYd = Y − TI = 40 − 40rG = 80T = 50 Money marketsMoney demand:(M/P)d = 500 + 0.8 − rMoney supply: MSP = 800Derive IS and LM equations and derive equilibrium income level and interest rate.
Based on the neoclassical economics, when AD, aggregate demand goes down, in the long run, there will be: An increase in prices and an increase in output O An increase in prices and a return to potential GDP O A decrease in prices and a return to potential GDP O A decrease in prices and a decrease in output
Draw and properly label an AD-AS model to show Keynesian, intermediate, and neoclassical zones. Then, briefly explain the levels of unemployment, inflation and real GDP in each zone, and also confirm whether all three goals of a macro economy are being achieved in each zone. 2. Draw and properly label the AD-AS graphs or one AD-AS graph to show recessionary and inflationary gaps. Then, discuss in detail how Keynesians suggest that recessionary and inflationary gaps be closed. 3. Draw and properly label AD-AS graphs or one AD-AS graph to show recessionary and inflationary gaps. Then, discuss in detail how neoclassicals suggest that recessionary and inflationary gaps be closed.
In the Teenaged Neoclassical Model (akin to Ramey's neoclassical framework), government purchases (G) are presumed to be intrincally useless; one example might be military spending in a country without foreign enemies. In the TNM, when government purchases rise, what happens to GDP (Y) and to subjective well-being (U)? Y rises, U falls. Y falls, U falls. Y rises, U rises. Y falls, U rises.
