Question 5 • Consider a baseline long run steady state equilibrium where output is 20 trillion dollars, and the price level is 100. Note: price expectation is the same as the price level at the long run steady state equilibrium & unemployment is 5% or lower A. Draw the baseline long run steady state equilibrium. Suppose this equilibrium existed in September of 2021 B. Suppose the Federal Reserve undertakes expansionary monetary policies after September of 2021. What will happen to the output, employment and price level in the economy in December 2021 (assuming that monetary policies take a few months to show results)? How will you change your graph in response (you need to show a shift of some curve)? C. Will you let market adjustment work? Show on the graph how market adjustment will affect the economy in May 2022 compared to where the economy was in December 2021?

Would you expect to see long-run data trace out a stable downward-sloping Phillips curve?
Table 24.4 describes Santhers economy. Plot the AD/AS curves and identify the equilibrium. Would you expect unemployment in this economy to be relatively high or low? Would you expect prices to be a relatively large or small concern for this economy? Imagine that input prices fall and so AS shifts to the right by 150 units. Identify the new equilibrium. How will the shift in AS affect the original output, price level, and employment?
4Consider a baseline long run equilibrium where output is 22 trillion dollars, and the price level is 100. Note: In the Long Run Steady State Equilibrium, Price expectation is the same as price level & unemployment is 5% or lower. None of these are guaranteed in the short run. Usually, short run equilibrium is called an underemployment equilibrium.Starting from the baseline, suppose COVID 19 hits this economy. If this disease only makes workers sick (everything else remaining constant) A Keynesian Macroeconomist proposes the use of a massive expansionary fiscal policy. Step 1) What will be the shape of the Phillips Curve (Upward / Downward/ Vertical/Horizontal). I want you to think about what variable is measured on the horizontal axis of the Phillips Curve Graph and what variable is measured in the Phillips Curve Vertical axis. Then tell us what it means to say that Phillips Curve is upward or downward sloping or vertical or horizontal Step 2) why did this policy create a…
Two main macroeconomic concerns are the problems of inflation andunemployment.a. What are the social costs of inflation? Explain TWO of them? b. What is natural rate of unemployment? Explain the TWO main causesof natural rate of unemployment. With reference specifically to ONEof these causes, suggest ONE practical government policy that reducesthe natural rate of unemployment.
The imaginary country of Harris Island has theaggregate supply and aggregate demand curves as Table24.3 shows. a. Plot the AD/AS diagram. Identify theequilibrium.b. Would you expect unemployment in thiseconomy to be relatively high or low?c. Would you expect concern about inflation in thiseconomy to be relatively high or low?d. Imagine that consumers begin to lose confidenceabout the state of the economy, and so ADbecomes lower by 275 at every price level.Identify the new aggregate equilibrium.e. How will the shift in AD affect the originaloutput, price level, and employment?
1) According to the Phillips Curve, as unemployment falls what happens to inflation? Why? 2) According to the Phillips Curve, as unemployment rises what happents to inflaiton? Why? 3) According to the Aggregate Supply/ Aggrgeate Demand model, if AD increases what happebs to Price Level GDP and Unemployment 4) Accroding to the AS/AD model, if AD decreases what happens to PL, GDP and unemployment? 5) According to the AS/AD model if AS decreases what happens to PL GDP and unemployment? 6) Based on your answer to #5 how would you show the decrease in AS on the Philips Curve?

Calculate an expression for the IS, MP and AD curves ( r= ?, IS Y= ?, AD Y=?)B. Let AS curve be given by the relation: π = 6 + 1.5 (Y - 25.5) (i.e. the price shock is zero).

What are new short-run equilibrium inflation values, output and the real interest rate (π, Y, r}?D. Suppose a financial crisis begins, and ƒ increases ƒ = 3. (Assume government purchases are again as in part (a). What are the new short-run equilibrium values of inflation, output, and the interest rate (π, Y, r}?(Please solve all the parts with numerical steps so it could be practiced easily)
a. What are the short-run equilibrium real GDP and price level in 2019?b. What is the long-run equilibrium real GDP?c. Is the short-run macroeconomic equilibrium a full-employment equilibrium, belowfull-employment equilibrium, or above full-employment equilibrium?d. In transition to the long run, how would the wages in this economy change?e. Following from d, explain how would the short run supply curve move to its long runposition, as the changes in the nominal wages take effect.f. What will the long run price level be?

Specific subject - Macroeconomic Analyse the case of a negative supply shock caused by an increase in oil prices and compare with the shock caused by the Covid pandemic. What would be the similarities and differences between the two shocks? What would be the effect of an expansionary economic policy (increase in aggregate demand)? Graph What measures or government intervention would be most appropriate to deal with both types of shocks? Graph Compare the adjustment in both cases with and without government intervention. Graph
question 3Consider the AS-AD and three-equations models of a closed economy discussed in the course.(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, i.e. in the steady state?(b). Analyse the effects of an oil supply shock that causes a temporary increase in 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 demand?(c). Consider an economy that starts out in steady state when the central bank decides to make the inflation target more ambitious. Analyse the effects of a decrease in the inflation target from ? to ??. Explain the mechanisms behind the adjustment to the new steady state.
1. Using the AS-AD model, graph and explain the effects of Covid-19 on the U.S. macroeconomy by comparing 2019 vs. 2020. Label the years on all curves, the axis, and the equilibrium. Ignore macroeconomic policy responses, such as the CARES act. Which curves shifted which direction, and why? 2. Now introduce any macroeconomic policy response. What curves shift which direction, and why? 3. What were the equilibrium quantities for both axis?
