Which of the following is TRUE? 1.In the short run, output is 5% below trend 2.In the short run, output is 4% below trend 3.In the short run, inflation is 1% 4.In the long run, output is 5% below trend
81.Assume that in a certain economy the LM curve is given by Y = 2,000r – 2,000 + 2(M/P), and the IS curve is given by Y = 8,000 – 2,000r + u, where u is a shock that is equal to +200 half the time and –200 half the time. The price level (P) is fixed at 1.0. The natural rate of output is 4,000. The government wants to keep output as close as possible to 4,000 and does not care about anything else. Consider the following two policy rules: i. Set the money supply M equal to 1,000 and keep it there. ii. Manipulate M from day to day to keep the interest rate constant at 2 percent. a.Under rule i, what will Y be when u = +200?

Aggregate demand function is given by Y=7000-20P; the shirt-run aggregate supply function is given by Y=6000+5(P-Pe). The economy was in equilibrium when the government unexpectedly increased its spending which led to a shift of the aggregate demand curve to Y=7500-20P. What's the rate of inflation? Please illustrate the calculations by means of an AS-AD graph.
10. Which of the following are reasons why the short-run Aggregate Supply curve shown in the right-hand diagrams may be vertical? a) The economy at this level of real GDP would be operating beyond the full-employmetn level. b) Inflationary expectations have set-in so, the owners of resources are acting on these inflationary expectations and insisting on higher resource prices in anticipation of future products price inflation. c) Short-run Aggregate Suply in the Classical model is always constant. d) All the above e) Only (a) and (b) are true. f) None of the above.

Consider the AD-AS model discussed during the lectures. Assume that the aggregate demand curve is given by Y=8-0.5 π, that the long run aggregate supply curve is given by Yp=7, that the short run aggregate supply curve is given by π = π_expect + 0.3(Y-Yp), and that the monetary rule is given byr=1+0.3 π. Suppose the economy is suffering a decrease in the potential level of output, due to some ill-designed new regulation. According to the AD- AS model, what is more suitable to offset the subsequent decline in output, an expansionary monetary policy or an expansionary fiscal policy?
The Short-Run Aggregate Supply Curve (AS) is given by: y=20pAnd the Short-Run Aggregate Demand Curve (AD) is given by: y=25,000−20p Suppose instead that the Central Bank wanted to take action to keep the price-level completely stable. This would entail keeping it constant at its current rate. Suppose also that the Central Bank targets the interest rate directly. Suppose also that: • The Marginal Propensity to Spend is 0.75. • Every 1% increase in the interest rate leads to a decrease in Autonomous Consumption of 250 and a decrease in Autonomous Investment of 250. How much would the Central Bank need to change the current interest rate in order to keep the price level from changing through the medium-term as this output gap closes in the economy?
a. write down the expressions for the AS and AD curves and interpret the expressions. what is the intuition behind the two curves? what must be true of the model parameters and variables in the long run equilibrium? b. analyze the effects of an oil supply shock that causes a temporary increase in the inflation, using the three-equation model. assume that the shock lasts for one period and then assumes the value 2%. describe the mechanisms that bring the economy back to long-run equilibrium. what happens to aggregate supply? c. consider an economy that starts out in steady state when the central bank decides to make the inflation target more ambitious. analyze the effects of a decrease in the inflation target from m to mt. explain the mechanism behind the adjustment to the new steady state.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is causing energy prices to soar in the euro area (at an annual rate of 39% according to the Economist, June 2022). (1.a) What kind of economic shock is this for the euro area (AD or AS; positive or negative)? Use the AD/AS model to predict the effects of this shock on euro area output, prices, employment, and unemployment. Does it matter whether the shock is permanent or temporary? How must fiscal policy respond if the government’s target is price stability? How will this policy change your answer about prices, employment, and unemployment? Include the AD/AS grap

The Aggregate Demand- Aggregate Supply (AD-AS) model can be used to illustrate that by choosing the right combination of measures (policies) it is possible for the economy to grow without it experiencing inflationary pressures. Discuss four supply-side measures that policy makers can implement to expand the economy without increasing the inflationary pressure in the country? (20
Hi, could you help me solve this problem? It is often argued that the effect of a demand shock depends on the state of the economy. In particular, a given increase in aggregate demand may induce a larger increase in inflation (or price level) if the output gap is initially positive (output exceeds natural output) than if the output gap is initially negative. The argument is that when economy’s overall production capacity is almost fully used, firms cannot expand output much in response to an increase in demand.t Draw AD and AS curves that are consistent with these ideas and explain them briefly.
