- . Suppose the economy is self-regulating, the price level is 132, the quantity demanded of Real GDP is 4 trillion, the quantity supplied of Real GDP in the short run is 3.9 trillion, and the quantity supplied of Real GDP in the long run is 4.3 trillion. Is the economy in short-run equilibrium? Will the price level in long-run equilibrium be greater than, less than, or equal to 132? Show the relevant graph and explain answers.Consider the following graph. The economy is currently at point D. Which point will the economy go to in long run if consumer confidence increases?An economy is described by the following equations: Cd = 1,600 + 0.8(Y – T) IP = 1000 G = 1,800 X = M = 0 T = 3,000 + 0.01Y What is the short-run equilibrium level of output in this economy? Group of answer choices 1.7600.5 2.7650.4 3.8420.5 4.9615.4

What will most likely happen in the short run?The following graph shows a hypothetical economy in long-run equilibrium at an expected price level of 120 and a natural output level of $600 billion.

- Suppose England's economy is in long-run equilibrium. As a result of the coronavirus, the British government orders all non-essential businesses to close and issue “shutter in” and other “stay at home” directives requiring its citizens and residents not to leave their residences absent emergencies and/or to purchase food and groceries from markets (that is, people cannot, for example, go to restaurants, movies or sporting events and the like.) If so, then we would predict that in the short-run England's A. real GDP will fall and the price level might rise, fall, or stay the same. B. real GDP will rise and the price level might rise, fall, or stay the same. C. the price level will rise, and real GDP might rise, fall, or stay the same. D. the price level will fall, and real GDP might rise, fall, or stay the sameAustria is one of the largest exporters of oil. At the end of 2019, the global price of oil fell substantially. For this question, treat oil as a final good, not an input into production. Begin at long-run equilibrium. this is all one question please answer everything! Now assume that the government did not intervene and instead allowed the economy to self-correct. As a result of the self-correction, AD ( increased,decreased,remained the same,changed ambiguously) SRAS ( increased,decreased,remained the same,changed ambiguously) LRAS ( increased,decreased,remained the same,changed ambiguously) GDP ( increased,decreased,remained the same,changed ambiguously)relative to before the crisis, unemployment relative to before the crisis, and the price level ( increased,decreased,remained the same,changed ambiguously)relative to before the crisis.( increased,decreased,remained the same,changed ambiguously)Suppose an economy is at the short run equilibrium which its current output level called Y1, is below the full employment output level called Yf. If the government does nothing, discuss how the economy restores its long run equilibrium level of output?
- For the following economy, find autonomous expenditure, the multiplier, short-run equilibrium output, and the output gap. By how much would autonomous expenditure have to change to eliminate the output gap?
