According to the "4-Quadrant Model" (4QM), which of the following statement is correct?
O If there is a positive demand shock in the space market, the housing rent is going to increase in the short run,
and will be lower than the current rent in the long run.
If there is a positive demand shock in the space market, the housing price is going to decrease in the short run,
and increase in the long run.
If there is a positive demand shock in the asset market, the housing rent is going to decrease in the long run.
O If there is a positive demand shock in the asset market, the housing price is going to decrease in the short run,
and will be lower than the current price in the long run.
How can they say that "Rising prices are symptom of an expanding current supply"?

- Explain what would happen in the following markets given the following demand or supply shocks. In your answer clearly state what happened to supply or demand (whether it increased or decreased) and what would likely happen to the equilibrium price and quantity as a result, other factors constant. Market: Electric vehicles. Shock: Due to the recently enacted CHIPS Act, there is a significant decrease in the price of U.S. semiconductors, which are used as an input in the production of electric vehicles. Market: In home exercise equipment. Shock: Due to the waning concerns around the COVID-19 pandemic and loosening restrictions, U.S. consumers go back to gyms and public recreational centers. Market: U.S. Cotton. Shock: There is a significant drought in the Southwestern U.S., where the majority of U.S. cotton is grown. Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution.

In macroeconomics, the immediate short run is known as a length of time when both input prices and output prices are fixed. In the short-run, input prices are fixed but output prices are variable. In the long run, input prices and output prices can vary. What happens in the immediate short-run when AD rises from AD to AD2 to the price level and output?
