The Aggregate Demand- Aggregate Supply (AD-AS) model can be used to illustrate that by choosing the right combination of measures (policies) it is possible for the economy to grow without it experiencing inflationary pressures. Discuss four supply-side measures that policy makers can implement to expand the economy without increasing the inflationary pressure in the country? (20
Part B: Aggregate Demand (AD) Curve shows the relationship between the economy’s price level and real GDP demanded. In other words, real GDP demanded by different groups of buyers, i.e., Consumers (C), Businesses (I), Government (G), and Net Amount by Foreigners (Export - Import), at different price levels give us points on a graph, which are connected to form a curve called AD curve. Review the textbook chapter, and conduct internet research to discuss determinants of AD or factors that shift AD curve.
Suppose workers become pessimistic about their future employment, which causes them to save more and spend less. If the economy is only intermediate range of the aggregate supply curve, then
A. Both real GDP and the price level will fall
B. With real GDP and the price level will rise
C. Real GDP will fall, and the price level will rise
D. Real GDP will rise, and the price level will fall

- Let's say you are the chair of economic advisors to the president. Assume that the economy, as depicted in an AD/AS framework is at: potential (full employment) output, The intersection of the SRAD, SRAS, and LRAS, all intersect at the level of potential (full employment) output and a corresponding price level ( or an acceptable rate of inflation). The economy's mpc is .75, which is presumed to remain constant. Now, global problems emerge, and the US decided to produce many new fighter jets immediately to the region under duress. The new jets will cost $55 b., and other expenditures by the government cannot be cut. The president is concerned that the new expenditures will create an inflation, but needs to produce the new jets immediately. What policies would you propose, that would enable the country to produce the new jets, without creating an inflation? Use the AD/AS framework to illustrate your answer.

- Please note that this is a multi part quesition; thank you so much for your time and effort it means so much to me! Figure 1: Hayek’s (Classical) AD-AS Model (Image normally goes here) Part 1: Why does Hayek’s aggregate supply curve always lead to an equilibrium level of national output equal to the full-employment level of real GDP? Part2: Hayek says that markets will heal themselves and that government should not intervene. How does the AD-AS model reflect Hayek’s idea that governments cannot increase real GDP beyond the level that the free market economy is able to produce? Part 3: Do you believe that the Hayek’s classical AD-AS model explain the factors that cause changes (shifts) in AS realistically?
