The following set of equations describe an economy: C = 15,000+0.5(r-T)-50,000 rl^P = 10,000 - 25,000 г G = 8,000 NX = 2,600 T = 8,200 Y^* = 46,800 a. Find a numerical equation relating planned aggregate expenditure to output and to the real interest rate. PAE = b. At what value should the Fed set the real interest rate to eliminate any output gap? (Hint Set output Y equal to the value of potentia output given above in the equation you found in part a. Then solve for the real interest rate that also sets planned aggregate expenditure equal to potential output.) Instructions: Enter your response as a whole number. Real rate of interest:
Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion A standard "money demand" function used by macroeconomists has the form ln(m)=β0+β1ln(GDP)+β2R, Where m is the quantity of (real) money, GDP is the value of (real) gross domesticproduct, and R is the value of the nominal interest rate measured in percent per year. Supposed that β1 = 2.66 and β2 = −0.05. A) What is the expected change in m if GDP increases by 4%? The value of m is expected to_________(increase or decrease ) by approximately ________% (Round your response to the nearest integer) B) What is projected to change in m if the interest rate increases form 2% to 6% ? The value of m is expected to ________(increase/decrease) by approximately ________% (Round your response to the nearest integer)

The central bank of Trinidad and Tobago decides to pursue acontractionary monetary policy. Provide a table with the money supply data and inflationrate for Trinidad and Tobago for 2014 - 2019.Based on the data from Trinidad, do you agree with thecentral bank’s decision to pursue a contractionary monetary policy? Explain why orwhy not.
Suppose that the money demand function is(M/P)d = 1,000 - 100r, where r is the interest rate in percent. Themoney supply M is 1,000 and the price level Pis 2.a. Graph the supply and demand for real moneybalances.b. What is the equilibrium interest rate?c. Assume that the price level is fixed. Whathappens to the equilibrium interest rate if thesupply of money is raised from 1,000 to 1,200?d. If the Fed wishes to raise the interest rate to7 percent, what money supply should it set?
Assume that the demand for real money balance (M / P) is M / P = 0.8Y – 200i, where Y is national income, and i is the nominal interest rate (in percent). The real interest rate r is fixed at 5 percent by the investment and saving functions. The expected inflation rate equals the rate of nominal money growth. If Y is 2,500, P is 1.2, and the growth rate of nominal money is 2 percent, what must i and M be? Show all your work, show formula used and explain why.
Assume the following IS-LM model: expenditure sector: money sector: AD = C + I + G + NX I = 300 - 20i M = 700 C = 100 + (4/5)YD G = 120 P = 2 YD = Y - TA NX = -20 md = (1/3)Y + 200 - 10i TA = (1/4)Y By how much will the equilibrium level of income (Y) and the interest rate (i) change, if the Fed responds to an increase in government purchases of 160 by increasing nominal money supply to M' = 1,100?
Money demand in an economy in which no interest is paid on money is Md p == 500 + 0.2Y - 1000i. a. Suppose that P = 100, Y = 1000, and i = 0.10. Find real money demand, nominal money demand, and velocity. b. The price level doubles from P = 100 to P = 200. Find real money demand, nominal money demand, and velocity.
A country's central bank is engaging in monetary contraction, with M going from M0=40 to M1=20. Its economy is as follows. Goods: slc = 3 MPC = 0.7 G = 10 T = 9 Before the policy, the goods market equilibrium is at Y0 = 54. Financial: I = 18-200r Before the policy, the loans market equilibrium is at r = 4.25% and I = 9.5 Money: M0 = 40 P0 = 2 M/P = 0.02 / (r - Y/5000)^2 and finally, Labor: w = MPL = 0.5 * 4.5 * 16^0.6 / L^0.5 w = EP / P0 * L^0.5 Where workers currently expect the price level of EP=2. There are four endogenous variables that adjust in response to shock/policy: Y, I, r, P. The policy variable of interest is M. Therefore, let's approach our solution by first recognizing that all other letters are just constants and plug them in. For example: Y = 2 + 0.5(Y-6)+7+I becomes Y = 12 + 2*I First, express the goods market as expenditure being a linear function of investment I of the form: Y = a + b*I where a and b are parameters (numbers). 1.
