Briefly explain how an increase in interest rates affects consumer spending. investment spending, and government spending.
Suppose that a large percentage of Country A’s exports go to Country B. Country B is currently experiencing a recession.
How do you think this might affect the bond market in the Country A?
Do you expect interest rates to increase or decrease in Country A?
Briefly explain your answer (use computer graphs).
The following graph shows the loanable funds market in the United States. It plots both the demand (D) for loanable funds and the supply (S) of loanable funds. At the current equilibrium, the government is operating with a balanced budget. Assume now that the financial industry is close to bankruptcy and the U.S. government decides to implement a bailout plan of several billion dollars without increasing taxes, causing a budget deficit.
Show the effect of the budget deficit on the market for loanable funds by shifting the demand (D) curve, the supply (S) curve, or both.
Based on this model, the budget deficit leads to (an increase/a decrease) in the level of investment and (an increase/a decrease) in the interest rate.
Which of the following arguments might a supporter of a balanced budget make in defense of their position? Check all that apply.
-An individual's share of the government debt represents only a small portion of his or her lifetime earnings.
