Demand shocks are unexpected changes in the demand for goods and services. Examples are: A sudden increase in average incomes will generate an overall (increase, decline) in the consumption of goods and services in an economy, creating an unexpected (positive, negative) effect. An unexpected appreciation of the dollar will (increase, decrease ) the amount of exports and (expand, reduce ) the amount of imports in the United States. This will create an overall unexpected . positive , negative) effect in the demand of the goods and services produced in the U.S.

9-)Suppose that government decides to support the firms for their investments in research and the development.Assuming this support increases productivity in the economy, use aggregate demand and supply analysis to predict the short-run and long-run effects on inflation and output. Show these effects on a graph and explain the results in detail. IMPORTANT NOTE FOR THE QUESTION: DESCRIPTION ≠ EXPLANATION; So please DO NOT just write like “this curve shifts right or left etc.” as an explanation (I can see it on the graph), EXPLAIN “WHY” that curve shifts right or left and clearly write “WHAT” are the short-run and the long-run RESULTS of the shift(s) on inflation and output.)
4. Suppose that people expect inflation to equal 3 percent, but in fact prices rise by 5 percent. Indicate whether this unexpected higher rate of inflation would help or hurt each of the following groups. a homeowner with a fixed-rate mortgage. a union worker with a fixed labor contract a company that has invested some of its endowment in a government bonds which pay a fixed rate of return. 5. Indicate how each of the following events would affect the aggregate demand AD curve: a short-run decrease in the price level an increase in consumer confidence on the price level and real GDP an increase in government purchases
