Let's say you are the chair of economic advisors to the president. Assume that the economy, as depicted in an AD/AS framework is at: potential (full employment) output, The intersection of the SRAD, SRAS, and LRAS, all intersect at the level of potential (full employment) output and a corresponding price level ( or an acceptable rate of inflation). The economy's mpc is .75, which is presumed to remain constant.
Now, global problems emerge, and the US decided to produce many new fighter jets immediately to the region under duress. The new jets will cost $55 b., and other expenditures by the government cannot be cut. The president is concerned that the new expenditures will create an inflation, but needs to produce the new jets immediately. What policies would you propose, that would enable the country to produce the new jets, without creating an inflation? Use the AD/AS framework to illustrate your answer. Assume any taxes are lump sum taxes. Specify the spending and taxing…
Suppose workers become pessimistic about their future employment, which causes them to save more and spend less. If the economy is only intermediate range of the aggregate supply curve, then
A. Both real GDP and the price level will fall
B. With real GDP and the price level will rise
C. Real GDP will fall, and the price level will rise
D. Real GDP will rise, and the price level will fall

- The graph below depicts an economy where an increase in aggregate demand has caused inflation. Assume the government decides to conduct fiscal policy by decreasing government purchases to restore full-employment GDP. Instructions: Enter your answer as a whole number.

How much does aggregate demand need to change to restore the economy to its long-run equilibrium? $ -160 Numeric ResponseEdit Unavailable. -160 incorrect. billion b. If the MPC is 0.9, how much do government purchases need to change to shift aggregate demand by the amount you found in part a? $ billion Suppose instead that the MPC is 0.8. c. How much does aggregate demand and government purchases need to change to restore the economy to its long-run equilibrium? Aggregate demand needs to change by $ billion and government purchases need to change by $ billion.arrow_forwardPart B: Aggregate Demand (AD) Curve shows the relationship between the economy’s price level and real GDP demanded. In other words, real GDP demanded by different groups of buyers, i.e., Consumers (C), Businesses (I), Government (G), and Net Amount by Foreigners (Export - Import), at different price levels give us points on a graph, which are connected to form a curve called AD curve.

Figure 1: Hayek’s (Classical) AD-AS Model (Image normally goes here) Part 1: Why does Hayek’s aggregate supply curve always lead to an equilibrium level of national output equal to the full-employment level of real GDP? Part2: Hayek says that markets will heal themselves and that government should not intervene. 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? Part 3: Do you believe that the Hayek’s classical AD-AS model explain the factors that cause changes (shifts) in AS realistically? Why or why not?arrow_forward
