Suppose that the policy-makers of a foreign country decide to enact policy that reduces unemployment (at the expense of higher prices) just before an election. At the time of the election, however, the reduction in unemployment is much greater than expected, and the pesky inflation increase never occurs. The graph illustrates the economy before the government attempts to reduce unemployment. Change the graph to illustrate changes in the economy that could result in lower unemployment without an increase in prices. Note that LRAS represents long-run aggregate supply, SRAS represents short-run aggregate supply, and AD represents aggregate demand.
Aggregate Supply and Aggregate Demand show the relationship between economic output (GDP) and price levels in the macro-economy at a given point in time. Define the terms ‘Aggregate Demand’ and ‘Aggregate Supply.’ State TWO (2) monetary and TWO (2) fiscal policies that government can adopt, to effect change in Aggregate Demand.
1-What is the general relationship between a country's price level and the quantitiy of it's domestic output (Real GDP) demanded? Who are the buyers of real US GDP? 2- what assumptions cause the immediate -short-run aggregate supply curve to be horizontal? why is the long-run aggregate supply curve vertical? Explain the shape of the short-run aggregate supply curve . Why is the short-run curve relatively flat to the left of the full employment output and relatively steep to the right ? 3- why does a reduction in aggregate demand tend to reduce real output, rather than the price level? 4- Explain" unemployment can be caused by a decrease of aggregate demand or a decrease of aggregate supply ."In each case , specify the price level outcomes . 5- In early 2001 investment spending declined in the USA.

42. Suppose that there is a temporary fall in aggregate supply due to a drought. Whathappens in the long-run?(A) Higher prices cause permanent tensions, leading long-run aggregate supply to shiftleft, resulting in a lower natural rate of output.(B) Over time, as the drought conditions fade, aggregate supply rises and returns tothe original natural rate of output.(C) Aggregate demand shifts right, so that prices are higher but long-run output isunchanged.(D) If the person you’re dating enjoys Taylor Swift, dump them immediately
ax policy is one used not only for economic purposes but also for political purposes. It is the opinion of some economists and politicians that the rich should pay more of their income in taxes, and that the resulting fairness from this rise in taxes will lead to more economic growth and a rise in employment. Using the simple expenditure model (Y and Ep, not IS-LM) answer these two questions: One, would a lump-sum tax increase on many high-income households cause GDP to rise in the short run as predicted by the politicians? Why or why not? And two, are there macroeconomic conditions in the simple model under which such a tax increase would be fully warranted? Draw the graphs and explain the outcomes for both cases.
