Consider the economy of Ghana.
The consumption function is given by C = 400 + 0.8(Y - T). The investment function is I = 600 - 70r.
Government purchases is 400. Assume a balanced budget. The money demand function is (M/P)d = Y - 180r.
The money supply M is 3,000 and the price level P is 3.
Find the equilibrium interest rate r and the equilibrium level of income Y.
Suppose that government purchases are increased from 400 to What are the new equilibrium interest rate and level of income?
Suppose instead that the money supply is increased from 3,000 to 3,500. What are the new equilibrium interest rate and level of income?
With the initial values for monetary and fiscal policy, suppose that the price level rises from 3 to 5 What are the new equilibrium interest rate and level of income?

- A Keynesian economy is described by the following equations. Consumption Cd = 250 + 0.5(Y - T) - 250r Investment Id = 250 - 250r Government purchases G = 300 Government taxes T = 300 Real money demand L = 0.5Y - 500r + πe Money supply M = 3000 Full-employment output Y = 1250 Expected inflation πe = 0 (HINT a: The expected rate of inflation is assumed to equal zero so that money demand depends directly on the real interest rate, which equals the nominal interest rate. Domestic Savings, Sd =Y - C - G. In equilibrium set domestic savings equal to domestic investment, so Sd = Id) Calculate the values of the real interest rate (r), consumption (Cd), and investment (Id) for the economy in general equilibrium.arrow_forwardKeynesian economics predicts that if government policy makers deem current equilibrium real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) to be "too low," then an appropriate policy action would be to do nothing, because the economy is self-adjusting. raise government spending, thereby increasing aggregate demand and pushing up real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) with little or no inflationary consequences. increase taxes, thereby causing aggregate demand to increase and inducing a rise in real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) with little or no inflationary consequences. reduce the money stock, thereby causing aggregate demand to decrease and inducing a rise in fall in the price level that generates an increase in total planned expenditures.arrow_forwardConsider an economy that is characterized by the following equations: C = 150 + 0.65(Y - T) – 200r (Consumption) (Тахation) (Investment Demand) (Government Expenditure) (Exports) (Imports) T = 100 + 0.2Y I = 200 G = 500 - 200r X = 100 IM = 150 + 0.1(Y – T) – 100r (Money Demand) (Money Supply) L = -25 + 0.5Y - 500r M = 133,200 pSR = 120 (Short-Run Price Level) Answer each of the following questions. In your answers, be sure to state any assumptions that you impose and provide an explanation. Derive the AD and SRAS curves. Solve for the short-run equilibrium in the AD-SRAS model. Is your solution the same as in part 3 above? Why or why not? Is the fiscal multiplier in this economy larger or smaller than if the asset market were not accounted for in the model? Briefly explain. True or false? The aggregate demand curve is downward-sloping because the demand for goods and services increases as the price decreases. Briefly explain.arrow_forward

Individual income taxes directly affect personal disposable incomes which in turn affect the domestic demand for goods and services. Production costs depend substantially on oil prices. Market expectations are: (1) income taxes in the U.S. will INCREASE substantially and (2) oil prices will remain relatively unchanged. Using market expectations, what do you expect the U.S. output and prices in the coming years? Assume we are moving from the old equilibrium to a new equilibrium.

The UK has an inflation rate that is above their target rate and the UK Government is currently running a budget deficit. How these policies would be funded was not specified. Immediately after the announcement of these policies, investors started selling off UK pound assets as the market reacted badly to this announcement. Discuss these policies and their impact on economic variables. There is no single right answer here. Better answers will show depth of good economic analysis of these policies.

- In a small closed economy, its aggregate demand and output are given as the equations below, Y = C + I + G; national output or GDP. C = 100 + 0.5(Y-T); consumption, marginal propensity to consume MPC = 0.5. I = 150 – 10*r; investment is a negative function of real interest rate (r as %). (M/P)d = Y – 20*r; real money demand which is adjusted by price level (inflation). G = 200; as government spending. T = 200; as tax. M = 2,400; as money supply. P = 4; the price level. (1) With the equations above, try to derive the IS curve. Tip: recall IS curve represent the relation between national output (Y) and real interest rate (r) in goods market. To derive IS curve, you need to put all components of Y together and find its connection with r. (2) Use the same equations, now try to derive the LM curve. Tip: recall LM curve represent the relation between national output (Y) and real interest rate (r) in money market. So to derive LM curve, you need to consider money supply and demand.…arrow_forward(a) In order to get out of recession, the government chooses to reduce taxes (T) by 250.
