The diagram shows what happened to the consumption of lamb in the UK over the period 1974– 2015. How can we explain this dramatic fall in consumption? One way of exploring this issue is to make use of a regression model, which should help us to see which variables are relevant and how they are likely to affect 140 130 120 110 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 1974 1978 1982 1986 1990 1994 1998 2002 2006 2010 2014 Note: Data from 2015 based on end of financial year.

QUESTIONS 3 1. Explain the implication of the Ramsey model in terms of Pareto Efficiency Dynamic Efficiency 2. Assume that the economy is in a steady state and there is an unexpected permanent increase in the rate of depreciation δ. Using the appropriate diagram show: What is the best response to this change? Does consumption initially increase or decrease?
Consider the model: yt = α0 + b0st + b1st-1 + b2st-2 + b3st-3 + ut. What is the effect of a permanent change in s on y?
10.14 Total economic output in three years. The n - vector xt denotes the economic output of a country in n different sectors, in yeart. An economist models the economic output using a linear dynamical system model xt+1 = Axt, where A is an n \times n matrix. Assuming her model is correct, find an expression for the total economic output in yeart + 3, in terms of xt and A. (The total economic output is the sum of the economic output in the n sectors.)

In attempting to formulate a model of the passenger arrival data on cruise ships over time would a nonlinear (perhaps a multiplicative exponential) model be preferable to a linear model of cruise ship arrivals against time? What about in the case of the passenger arrivals by ferry against time?
Suppose, as an economist, you are asked to analyze an issue unlike anything you have ever done before. Also, suppose you do not have a specific model for analyzing that issue. What should you do? Hint: What would a carpenter do in a similar situation?

Assume that the average or mean monthly household consumption expenditure for Malaysia rose from RM3,578 in 2018 to RM4,033 in 2020, growing 6% per annum at nominal value, according to the statistics department. However, in terms of real value — which refers to the constant price using the Consumer Price Index with the base year 2014 as the deflator — annual growth rate is 3.9% for the same period, mentioned on its Household Expenditure Survey Report 2020. b) i. Use the aggregate expenditures model to show how government fiscal policy could eliminate either a recessionary expenditure gap or an inflationary expenditure gap. ii. Explain how equal-size increases in G and T could eliminate a recessionary gap and how equal-size decreases in G and T could eliminate an inflationary gap.
