Assume the Australian economy is originally at the long-run equilibrium. An abrupt house price crash sends shockwaves throughout the economy. In response to such a shock, households bring their spending on durable goods to the bare minimum, while firms cancel all future upgrade or expansion projects. Required: (a) Explain how the long-run aggregate supply (LRAS), the short-run aggregate supply (SRAS) and the aggregate demand (AD) will be affected by the above shock. Clearly explain why such change(s) would occur. (b) Clearly explain how the above shock would affect the key macroeconomic variables (real GDP, unemployment rate and price level) in the short run. (c) In order to counteract the above shock, do you recommend the government to implement expansionary fiscal policy or contractionary fiscal policy? Clearly explain why. (d) Clearly explain what actions the government can undertake in order to implement the fiscal policy stance recommended in (c).
Assume that the economy is operating at or near its long‐run aggregate Identify one negative consequence that would result from a positive demand shock and two negative consequences that would result from a negative supply shock.
Do you consider the impact of the COVID 19 situation on the economy to be a demand shock or a supply shock. Using the DAD-DAS model explain how the economy may adjust towards long-run equilibrium from such a shock. Use appropriate graph(s).
For Shock C: Suppose the economy starts in the long run equilibrium. Illustrate changes that the shock will cause in the short run (using AD-SRAS). Explain why each curve shifts. Determine how the price level and output will be affected in the short run. Mark the output gap on the diagram. Is the output gap positive or negative? Is the economy is booming, or is it in a recession? On the same diagram illustrate how the economy will adjust to the shock in the long run and explain the mechanism. Determine how the price level and output will be affected in the long run. C. Firms expect an economic boom in the coming years As a result of this shock, in the short run the (SRAS Curve/AD Curve) will shift? In consequence, in the short run prices and output will?

part C D 3 . An economy experiences an adverse supply shock. a) Draw an AD-AS diagram to illustrate the effect of the shock. Be sure to include the LRAS line. b) What happens to output in the short run? What form of output gap (positive or negative) is formed? What happens to the aggregate price level in the short run? c) How will the long run equilibrium be restored? (Assume there is no fiscal and no monetary policy to help the process.) Explain and add this to your diagram. d) Does the process create inflation or deflation?
