In the goods-and-services market actual inventories have started to rise above optimal inventories. What could have happened to autonomous money demand to bring this about? Explain and diagrammatically represent your answer. In doing so, be sure to explain and diagrammatically represent what happens to the rate of interest, investment, and Y. In explaining what happens to Y, be sure to fully explain the equilibrium process in the simple Keynesian model

Economist will focus on achieving macroeconomic goals. There are four major economic goals namely as full employment, price stability, economic growth and equitable distribution of income. However, it is impossible for a government to achieve all four macroeconomic goals simultaneously. Briefly discuss how a government will not be able to implement two particular goals at the same time. According to Keynes, people have demand for money due to three different motives foe holding money rather than other forms. Hence, identify the THREE (3) motives according to Keynesian approach.
What, according to Keynes, are the normal mechanisms for ensuring full- employment equilibrium given an increase in money demand? Discuss how each of them helps ensure full employment.
What are the pros and cons of studying the IS-LM Model?Why is the IS curve called the goods market equilibrium schedule?Why is the LM curve called the money market equilibrium schedule?Explain how the equilibrium levels of income and the interest rate change if there is an increase in autonomous investment ( or government spending).Derive the AD curve from the IS-LM model.
Consumption function C=250+0.6(Y-T) Investment I=100-20r Money demand function (M/P)=Y-20r a. Government purchases and taxes are both 100. In the accompanying diagram, graph the IS curve for r ranging from 0 to 8 by dragging and dropping the end points to the correct locations. b. The money supply M is 2,875 and the price level P is 5. In the accompanying diagram, graph the LM curve for r ranging from 0 to 8 by dragging and dropping the end points to the correct locations. c. Find the equilibrium interest rate, r, and the equilibrium level of income Y.
Keynesian economics predicts that if government policy makers deem current equilibrium real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) to be "too low," then an appropriate policy action would be to do nothing, because the economy is self-adjusting. raise government spending, thereby increasing aggregate demand and pushing up real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) with little or no inflationary consequences. increase taxes, thereby causing aggregate demand to increase and inducing a rise in real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) with little or no inflationary consequences. reduce the money stock, thereby causing aggregate demand to decrease and inducing a rise in fall in the price level that generates an increase in total planned expenditures.
Determine whether each of the following statements is true or false, and explain why. For each true statement, discuss the impact of monetary and fiscal policy in that special case. a) If money demand does not depend on income, the LM curve is horizontal. b) If money demand is extremely sensitive to the interest rate, the LM curve is horizontal.
According to Keynes, what are the three reasons individuals hold money? Provide a brief explanation of each.
In a small closed economy, its aggregate demand and output are given as the equations below, Y = C + I + G; national output or GDP. C = 100 + 0.5(Y-T); consumption, marginal propensity to consume MPC = 0.5. I = 150 – 10*r; investment is a negative function of real interest rate (r as %). (M/P)d = Y – 20*r; real money demand which is adjusted by price level (inflation). G = 200; as government spending. T = 200; as tax. M = 2,400; as money supply. P = 4; the price level. (1) With the equations above, try to derive the IS curve. Tip: recall IS curve represent the relation between national output (Y) and real interest rate (r) in goods market. To derive IS curve, you need to put all components of Y together and find its connection with r. (2) Use the same equations, now try to derive the LM curve. Tip: recall LM curve represent the relation between national output (Y) and real interest rate (r) in money market. So to derive LM curve, you need to consider money supply and demand.…
According to modern Keynesian theory, an increase in the money supply will reduce interest rates and increase aggregate demand without unintended consequences. reduce interest rates and decrease aggregate demand without unintended consequences. increase interest rates and increase aggregate demand without unintended consequences. increase interest rates and decrease aggregate demand without unintended consequences.
What is the impact of monetary and fiscal policy if (a) money demand does not depend on income, LM curve is horizontal; and (b) If money demand is extremely sensitive to interest rate, LM curve is horizontal.
Suppose that with the liquidity facilities and asset purchase programs, the Bank of Canada increased the money supply. How do you expect this to affect consumption and investment in equilibrium?
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.
