Use the IS-LM model to answer this question. Suppose there is a simultaneous increase in taxes and reduction in the money supply. Explain what effect this particular policy mix will have on output and the interest rate. Based on your analysis, do we know with certainty what effect this policy mix will have on investment? Explain.

Suppose that the economy can be described by a closed-economy IS-LM framework and that is in a recession. Assume that the IS curve is relatively steep while the LM curve is relatively flat. If you were to advise the policymakers on which action to take, what would be your advice? Show graphically.
For each of the following scenarios, assume the economy experiences an exogenous decrease in investment demand. For each case, illustrate the IS-LM-FX diagram and state the effect of the shock (increase, decrease, no change, or ambiguous) on the following variables: Y, i, E, C, I, TB. Here, we assume the policy makers’ objective is to keep output fixed at its initial value

Why does interest rate links the two halves of the IS-LM model together?
Within the IS-LM curve model, a decline in expectations would a. lower income, but leave the interest rate unchanged. b. lower the interest rate, but leave income unchanged. c. increase income and lower the interest rate. d. lower income and the interest rate.

With respect to the IS/LM model, which of the following statements is false? Interest rates and output are the endogenous variables The position of the IS curve is given by α (alpha) The IS/LM model is an extension of the income-spending model The LM curve maps interest rates and output such that the money market clears Along the IS curve, planned aggregate spending is equal to income
Assume an economy is currently operating at point A and answer the following question. Q. What key policy recommendations would you make for an economy like this one that is currently operating at point A? Illustrate using the IS-LM model how the policy recommendations you provide will impact the economy. On your diagram indicate the new point that the policy takes the economy to and label this as point B.
Suppose the public becomes more concerned about their future so they increase the percentage of their income devoted to savings. Based on the IS-LM model, which curve will shift and why? Predict the effects of this event on income, interest rate, consumption and investment. Income: ________________ Interest Rate: ____________ Consumption: ___________ Investment: ______________
Assume that a closed economy finds that households have become wealthier. Which one of the following options correctly describes the effects of this increase in wealth on the equilibrium interest rate and level of output in the IS-LM model? (a) Equilibrium output and income will decrease as the interest rate increases; (b) Equilibrium output and income levels will increase and the interest rate will remained unchanged; (c) Equilibrium output and income will decrease but the interest rate will remain unchanged; (d) Equilibrium output and income will increase as the interest rate decreases.
