Westeros has recently discovered a new technology that would potentially increase profit for most firms. As a result, investment increases. a. In a Keynesian cross model, graph the changes and predict what will happen to equilibrium GDP. b.What happens to the IS curve? Will it shift or will there be a movement along the curve? Graph it and explain. c. In an IS-LM model, using the same graph, predict what happens to the equilibrium interest rate and GDP.

Consider a keynesian macromodel Y=(C0+G+I) / (1-c) where C0 is autonomus consumption, G is government consumption expenditure, I is investment expenditure, c is the marginal propensity to consume. In this model, if lthere is an increse in both labor productivity and the marginal propensity to consume while autonomus expenditures remain unchanged, what will happen to the level of employment? a. can't say for sure b. decreses c. stays the same d. increases
Congratulationst You have been appointed an economic policy adviser to the United States, You are told that the economy is significantly abowe futtemplyoment GDP. Based on this inlormation, how can the economy would adjust to reach LR.SR Equilbrium (Classical View)? The economy wilt experience low unemployment rate, pushing wages up, and increasing the pelces of a key input (labor). shatting the sAS to the left (up). The economy will experience high unemployment rate, pushing wages down, and reducing the prices of a key input (labor). shiting the SAS to the right (down). The econoriny wil experience low unemployment rate, decreasing inceme, which will eventually shift the AD to the left. The eooncmy will experience low unemployment rate, pushing wages up, and increasing the prices of a key input (labor), shiting the sAs to the night (down).

onsider a closed economy to which the Keynesian-cross analysis applies. Consumption is given by the equation C = 200 + 2/3(Y – T). Planned investment is 300, as are government spending and taxes. What is equilibrium Y? (Hint: Substitute the values of equations for planned consumption, investment, and government spending into the equation Y = C + I + G and then solve for Y.) What are equilibrium consumption, private saving, public saving, and national saving?
a) Given the following simple Keynesian Model: Y = C + I + G + X-M, where Consumption schedule is given as C= 100 +0.75Y Investment (I) = 50 Government (G) = 100 and Net Export (X-M) = 20 i. Calculate the Equlibrium Level of Income ii. Calculate the size of Consumption at the Equilibrium Level

Suppose that in Macroland the consumption and the investment have a negative relationship withthe real interest rate and positive relationship with Y. The Central Bank of the country targets acertain nominal interest rate and lets the money supply adjust in order to reach that interest rate.a. Draw a graph of the IS-LM model in this situation.b. Suppose that the Central Bank announces an increase of the interest rate in the future.Represent graphically the initial position of IS-LM curves. Then, show the IS-LM curves of thefuture, after the announced increase in the interest rate is implemented. (Assume that the ISis constant.).c. Suppose that agents today take into consideration the resulting income of the future whendeciding the amount of consumption and investment. Show what happens to the IS-LMcurves today after the announcement of the CB (tip: the CB is NOT increasing the nominalinterest rate today).d. The government decides to step in and avoid any deviation of Y from the initial…
The Simple Keynesian Model (i.e., the income-expenditure model). Assume: C = 150 + 0.9 DI I = 50 DI = C + I in equilibrium for a 2-sector model (Note: DI = C in a 1-sector model) Define the term, consumption. What is the value of “autonomous” consumption (also called “a” or the vertical intercept)? What is the value of the slope (also referred to as “b”) of the consumption function? There’s another name for the slope of the consumption function. What is it? What is the value of DI when the model is in equilibrium? What is the value of the “oversimplified” expenditure multiplier? If full-employment means that DI = $5000, then how much should autonomous consumption (or autonomous investment) increase to achieve full-employment? (Hint: Use the multiplier process formula.) Draw a graph of this 2-sector model. Indicate equilibrium DI, full-employment DI, as well as…
