Plot the AD/AS diagram from the data shown (Don't have to show graph but do draw it to help you answer the questions).
a. Identify the equilibrium.
b. Imagine that as a result of a government tax cut, aggregate demand becomes higher by 50 at every price level. Identify the new equilibrium.
c. How will the new equilibrium alter output? How will it alter the price level? What do you think will happen to employment?
Create a graph that shows where Mexico currently is on the business cycle. Be sure to include an AD-AS Model graph that shows if the economy is currently experiencing a recessionary gap, expansionary gap, or long run equilibrium.

- In the year 2020, aggregate demand and aggregate supply in the fictional country of Drooble are represented by the curves AD2020AD2020 and AS on the following graph. The price level is 102. The graph also shows two possible outcomes for 2021. The first potential aggregate demand curve is given by the ADAADA curve, resulting in the outcome illustrated by point A.
