Use the Aggregate supply and Aggregate Demand Model below to answer the questions that follow.Aggregate Supply and Aggregate Demand Model Examine the influence of government expenditure on investment in a nation.Use Jot Inc. Ltd a multinational construction company in which you are theChief Exec of the firm that that is highly diversified and recieves funds toconstruct highways and other government funded projects and explain the factors that cause the Aggregate Demand curve to be downward sloping left to right.
The aggregate supply-aggregate demand model predicts that an unexpected increase in government spending will have an effect. What will be the short-run effects?a.A decrease in the price level and an increase in real output.b.A decrease in the price level and no effect on real output.c.An increase in the price level and a decrease in real output.d.A decrease in both the price level and real output.e.An increase in both the price level and real output.

- In the AD/AS model, what prevents the economy from achieving equilibrium at potential output?arrow_forwardDraw and carefully describe a graph that utilizes the Aggregate Demand/Aggregate Supply model that would illustrate the state of the aggregate economy in the United States at the very beginning of 2020 before the start of the pandemic and the 2020 recession. Make sure that you explain your graph in your own words. You should draw your own AD/AS graph which you can then embed into your post. Your graph needs to be clearly labeled and explained in some detail. Make sure that your graph includes an aggregate demand (AD) curve, a short run aggregate supply (SRAS) curve, and a long run aggregate supply curve (LRAS, Potential GDP) curve. You should clearly label both axes of the graph.arrow_forward“John Maynard Keynes introduced the AD-AS macroeconomic model (aggregate demand- aggregate supply) to determine the equilibrium level of real output and the level of prices in the economy” 1.

- 5. Short-run shocks in the AD-AS model The following graph shows an economy that is initially in equilibrium. Then, a large decline in stock prices occurs, reducing the wealth of individuals. On the graph, show the economic impact of this event in the short-run aggregate demand and aggregate supply (AD–AS) model by shifting one or both curves. Show the movement of the AD and SRAS on a graph. This event is an example of a decrease in AD/increase in AD/ decrease in SRAS/ increase in SRAS. As a result, the price level declines/rises, and the equilibrium real GDP declines/rises.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is Aggregate Demand (AD) directly related to in an AS/AD model? a) inflation, b) C + I + G + XN c) Government spending d(none of the above)arrow_forwardFigure 1: Hayek’s (Classical) AD-AS Model Economics Online.

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?
