- The autonomous region of Catalonia has recently declared independence from Spain, and is looking for an exchange rate policy that would best fit their needs. The Catalans’ main goal is to stabilise the price level in the long-run, but constantly experience fluctuations in the price of foreign goods imported from Spain and other European countries. Would it be better for the Catalans to fix the exchange rate against the Euro, or to adopt a floating exchange rate? Justify your answer briefly.arrow_forwardUsing the model that we have developed, show what would happen with a new equilibrium domestic price level and real output if the government increases government spending that are fully financed by increase of taxes (change of government spending is equal to the increase of taxes). What will be the size of the AD curve shift? Keeping nominal exchange rate and foreign price level constant, what will happen with the real exchange rate, import and net export?arrow_forwardIn a large open economy, the IS curve has been given by Sd(r)-Id(r)=NX(e), where e is the real exchange rate that is positively related to the real interest rate r. Can you illustrate why the IS curve is downward sloping? That is, as Y increases, the real interest rate r is lower in equilibrium.arrow_forward
