Chapter 24, Problem 59CTQ
Review the problem in the Work It Out titled “Interpreting the AD/AS Model.” Like the information provided in that feature, Table 24.2 shows information on
- Plot the AD/AS diagram from the data. Identify the equilibrium.
- Imagine that, as a result of a government tax cut, aggregate demand becomes higher by 50 at every price level. Identify the new equilibrium.
- How will the new equilibrium alter output? How will it alter the price level? What do you think will happen to employment?

question 1:
In Figure 1 , how does the AD-AS model reflect the idea that governments cannot increase real GDP beyond an economy’s equilibrium level that the free-market economy is able to produce? Explain your answer.
During 2000, there was a sharp reduction in stock prices and a sharp increase in the world price of crude oil. How will aggregate demand and aggregate supply in the United States be influenced by these two factors? Using the AD-AS model, explain the expected impact on output.
What is the neoclassical zone of the SRAS curve? How much is the output level likely to change in the neoclassical zone?
