It is known that the aggregative economic variables are as follows: Cash demand for speculation : L2 = 100 - 400r The amount of money in circulation = 200 Money demand for transactions and in case: L1 = 0.2Y Savings : S = -110 + 0.2Yd Investment: I = 150 - 600r Tax Tx = 12.5 + 0.25Y Government Expenditure: G = 160 Question : a. calculate the interest rate and national income at the time of general equilibrium? b. How much money is demand for speculation? c. What is the investment volume on balance?

Discuss the use of Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) in the estimation of asset-pricing models. Give at least one example.
The IS-LM model is a simplification of the interrelationship between selected economic variables. The model consists of a number of en- dogenous variables (those variables whose values are determined inside the model) and a number of exogenous variables (those variables whose values are determined outside the model). The labour markets mostly consider the relationships between prices, expected prices, unemploy- ment among other macroeconomic variables. (a) Explain endogenous and exogenous variables in the IS-LM model as well as the labour markets, derive the AD-AS model.
Consider the following model of the economy Production function: Y = AKN â€“ N2/2Marginal product of labor: MPN = AK â€“ N. Where the initial values of A = 8 and K = 10. The initial labor supply curve is given as: NS = 20 + 9w. Cd = 401 + .50(Y-T) â€“ 500rId = 800 â€“ 500rG = 500T= 100 Md/P = 469 + 0.5Y- 1000r Nominal Money supply M = 4000 We assume that expectedinflation is zero (?e?= 0) so that money demand depends directly onthe real interest rate (since i = r). 1 a) Solve for the labor market clearing real wage (w*), theprofit maximizing level of labor input (N*), and the full employment level ofoutput (Y*). Please show your work. Draw two diagrams verticallywith the labor market on the bottom graph and the production function on thetop graph.

Note Dear student, There are multiple sub parts in the question that you have asked. I am answering first three sub parts for you. You are requested to repost the question, mentioning the three sub parts you wish to have answer for. Please do mention the final answer that i am going to provide to you for the first three sub parts, so that it becomes convenient for the tutor to provide answer for further sub parts. Introduction IS LM model, shows relation between goods market, money market, interest rates and Output. Answer a) Y = C Government purchase multiplier = 1 / (1 - MPC (1-t)) MPC = 0.75 t = 0.20 Government purchase multiplier = 1 / (1 - 0.75 (1-0.20)) Government purchase multiplier = 1 / (1 - 0.75 (0.80)) Government purchase multiplier = 1 / (1 - 0.60) Government purchase multiplier = 1 / 0.40 Government purchase multiplier = 2.5 Lump sum tax multiplier = - MPC / (1 - MPC (1-t) ) Lump sum tax multiplier = - 0.75 / (1 - 0.75 (1-0.20)) Lump sum tax multiplier = -…
Assume a two-sector economy model is given by: Y = C + I, C = 97 + 0.7Y, I = 180 – 125i Ms = 255, L1 = 0.2Y, L2 = 220 – 175i where Y is income, C is consumption, I is investment, i is rate of interest, Ms is money supply, L1 is transactionary demand for money and L2 is speculative demand for money. Find the equilibrium income level and interest rate, together with equilibrium levels of C, I, L1 and L2. Show what happens to the equilibrium conditions if autonomous investment falls from 180 to 110. Demonstrate your answers to (a) and (b) graphically. Assume that the demand function for a commodity is given by Qd = 3 – 0.1P and that the supply function is given by Qs = 1 + 0.05P, where P is the price, Qd is the quantity demanded and Qs is the quantity supplied. Suppose the government levies a tax of t cedis per unit sold. If the market is in equilibrium and the tax is increased, show how the price, quantity and tax revenue will change…
Consider a model that includes IS-LM, inflationary augmented Philips curve, labour market and production function. Assume supply of labour is a function of after-tax real wages. Show that quantity theory of money applies in this model.

Specific Subject: Macroeconomics - Basic Neoclassical Model This problem indicated At (exogenous variable represents as Technology as looks at Cobb-Douglas production functions). This problem indicated At (exogenous variable represents Technology as can be seen in various Cobb-Douglas type production functions).Then, the objective is to model 2 graphs considering 2 labour offers - one relatively elastic and the other inelastic -, and to analyse the effects of variables such as Yt (output), rt (interest rate), wt (nominal wage) and Nt (labour) and how they are impacted by these offers and thus explain what happens to the real wage. This problem was sent 2 times, but due to the complexity it was rejected. I urgently need a resolution.
Consider Ricardian model with two countries, Home and Foreign, and three goods: Cloth, Food and Books. Labor is the only factor of production. Cloth and Food are freely traded between countries, whereas Books are non-tradable. Unit labor requirements in the Home country are 12 for Cloth, 3 for Food and 4 for Books. Unit labor requirements in the Foreign country are 2 for Cloth, 2 for Food and 3 for Books. The total amount of labor in the Home country is 1500, and the total amount of labor in the foreign is 1000. If the world price of Cloth is 18 and the world price of Food is 12, what is the price of Books in the Home country? [Insert the nearest integer.]
