Suppose that consumer spending initially rises by $5 billion for every 1 percent rise in household wealth and that investment spending initially rises by $20 billion for every 1 percentage point fall in the real interest rate. Also assume that the economy's multiplier is 4. If household wealth falls by 6 percent because of declining house values, and the real interest rate falls by 2 percentage points, in what direction and by how much will the aggregate demand curve initially shift at each price level? In what direction and by how much will it eventually shift?

- 8. Which of the following explain why the Aggregate Demand curve is downward sloping? a) An increase in the price level decreases the purchasing power of money denominated wealth, which in turn causes a decline in on consumption spending. b) An increase in the price level decreases the purchasing power of money, which means that more money is needed to purchase goods. This causes buyers of investment and durable goods to require bigger loans to finance their purchases. This, in turn, causes an increase in the demand for loanable funds which leads to a higher interest rate. A higher interest rate will reduce the real purchases of investment and durable goods. c) An increase in the price level makes goods relatively more expensive to foreigners causing them to buy less which means that net exports will decline. d) All of the above. e) None of the above. 9.

A) Price level increases raise real wealth, which causes consumption spending and aggregate expenditure to decline. B) Price level increases cause firms and consumers to hold more money, which raises the interest rate. Higher interest rates lower consumption and planned investment expenditures, which lowers aggregate expenditure. C) Price level increases in the United States relative to other countries raise net exports, which lowers aggregate expenditure.

In such an economic environment, if both taxes and government spending are increased by $10 billion, what type of change will probably be observed in the price level and real GDP? Both price level and real GDP increase. Price level decreases real GDP increases. Both price level and real GDP decrease. Price level increases, real GDP decreases.arrow_forward
