Consider Country Y, a hypothetical country that produces only plastic toys. Initially, a plastic toy is priced at €1.00. Kate has €200 in her pocket, and, with this, she can purchase .......... plastic toys. Assume the government of Y cannot raise sufficient tax revenues to pay its debts. In order to meet its debt obligations, the government prints money. As a result, the money supply rises by 10%. If monetary neutrality holds, the 10% increase in the money supply will cause the price of a plastic toy to rise/fall to € ........ . After the government prints money to pay its debts, the €200 in Kate's pocket will purchase ...... plastic toys (round down to the nearest whole plastic toy). The impact that the government's decision to raise revenue by printing money has on the value of the money in Kate's pocket is known as the ( classical dichotomy / Fisher effect / velocity of money / inflation tax )

Consider the following: C = 400 + 0.5·(Y – T) I = 80 + 0.1·Y – 1000·(i – πe + x)NX = 0.01·Y*– 0.1·Y – 4·(E – 100) G = 600 T = 480 Y* = 20,000 The central bank anchored inflation expectations at target inflation rate of π̅= 0.02. Household borrowing rates and businesses include a 4% risk premium over policy rate (i) so: x - 0.04. The central bank has set policy rate equal to 2% (, ī = 0.02). The Exchange rate (E) is 100. Expected future exchange rate is also 100. a) Find short-run equilibrium level of output (Y) and trade balance (NX).

Given the following economic information for Country A (in RM billion): Saving (S) = –500 + 0.3Yd Investment (I) = 400 – 200r Government spending (G) = 500 Taxes (T) = 200 Nominal money supply (Ms ) = 4000 Money demand for transactions (Md t/P) = 0.2Y Money demand for speculations (Md s) = 1600 – 500r Price (P) = 2 di mana Y dan r adalah masing-masing mewakili tingkat pendapatan dan kadar bunga. where Y and r represent the levels of income and interest rate, respectively. Based on the above information, i) . Derive an expression for the IS and LM curve (four decimal point) in Y says. ii) . Calculate the equilibrium levels of income and interest rate (three decimal point).
Assume that the government is implementing an expansionary fiscal policy and as a result has increased borrowing. At the same time, the central bank is carrying out a contractionary monetary policy. As a result, we can expect: Interest rates would rise substantially and private investments would be significantly reduced. Interest rates would not change substantially as the 2 policies counterbalance each other, and private investments would not be significantly reduced. Interest rates and private investments would rise. Interest rates and private investments would fall.
