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).
Use the information in the following table to answer the questions below. Assume you are dealing with short-run aspects of the economy, so the marginal propensity to consume is constant. Also, for simplicity, assume this economy has no taxes. In your answers, expain brifly how did you get the numerical result.

Prompt We have been discussing major macroeconomic concepts like the ADAS Model and Fiscal Policy. This is an opportunity to apply that knowledge to a real-world scenario. Choose one of the following scenarios and identify whether it is an example of a recessionary economy or inflationary economy. Next, analyze possible Neoclassical solutions for it. Then, analyze possible Keynesian solutions for it. What would the impact on the economy be in the short-run? Long-run? Scenario 1: An increase in the unemployment rate to 7.4% has occurred. Inflation has increased causing a decline in consumer spending. Exports have declined by more than $4 billion. This has caused a decrease in GDP by 3.7%. Scenario 2: An increase in consumer and government spending has occurred. This has increased GDP by 4.4%. Currently, inflation rate has increased to 1.6%. Unemployment has remained at 5.5%. Scenario 3: An increase in the stock market by 26.5% has occurred. Companies are stockpiling the earnings…
For each of the following scenarios, tell a story and predict theeffects on the equilibrium levels of aggregate output (Y) and theinterest rate (r):a. During 2005, the Federal Reserve was tightening monetarypolicy in an attempt to slow the economy. Congress passed asubstantial cut in the individual income tax at the same time.b. During the summer of 2003, Congress passed and PresidentGeorge W. Bush signed the third tax cut in 3 years. Many ofthe tax cuts took effect in 2005. Assume that the Fed holdsMs fixed.c. In 1993, the government raised taxes. At the same time, theFed was pursuing an expansionary monetary policy.d. In 2005, conditions in Iraq led to a sharp drop in consumerconfidence and a drop in consumption. Assume that the Fedholds the money supply constant.e. The Fed attempts to increase the money supply to stimulatethe economy, but plants are operating at 65 percent of theircapacities and businesses are pessimistic about the future.
Suppose an economy is in long-run equilibrium.a. Use the model of aggregate demand andaggregate supply to illustrate the initialequilibrium (call it point A). Be sure to includeboth short-run aggregate supply and long-runaggregate supply.b. The central bank raises the money supply by5 percent. Use your diagram to show whathappens to output and the price level as theeconomy moves from the initial equilibrium to thenew short-run equilibrium (call it point B).c. Now show the new long-run equilibrium (call itpoint C). What causes the economy to move frompoint B to point C?d. According to the sticky-wage theory of aggregatesupply, how do nominal wages at point Acompare with nominal wages at point B? How donominal wages at point A compare with nominalwages at point C?e. According to the sticky-wage theory of aggregatesupply, how do real wages at point A comparewith real wages at point B? How do real wages atpoint A compare with real wages at point C?f.
