The following set of equations describe an
economy:
C = 14,400+ 0.5 (YT) - 40,000r
lp = 8,000 - 20,000r
G = 7,800
NX = 1,800
T = 8,000
Y* = 40,000
Suppose that the real interest rate (r) is 10%. Is the
economy in long run equilibrium? If not, what real
interest rate should central bank set to restore the
economy back to the long run equilibrium? And
what methods can central bank use to adjust the
interest rate? (Round your answer to 2 decimal
places)

- If an economy starts in a long run equilibrium and then there is a large decrease in the stock market and decrease in consumer wealth, what happens to the expected and actual prices? Does this affect real wages and price changes in other countries as well?arrow_forwardConsider the aggregate supply-aggregate demand (AD-AS) model that we saw in class. Assume that prices are fixed in the short run and are fully flexible in the long run. The initial full-employment level of output is y-900 and the initial price level is p= 100: The aggregate demand curve is given by Y=1500 –6P: Scenario 2, short run: A major earthquake destroys a part of the economy's capital stock and reduces the full-employment level of output shifts to y = 880: In the short run, the output is and the price level is Note: Type in your answer rounded to two decimal places, i.e., your answer must be of the form "999.99". I will not be able to fix correct answers that were entered incorrectly, such as "999.999" or "999,99" or "999". In case the last digit in the correct answer is zero, e.g., "999.90" or "999.00", Blackboard may automatically delete it and you should not do anything about it. In case of percentages, do not type in the percentage symbol "%".arrow_forwardHow would the level of aggregate demand be affected by a rise in the interest rate in the Keynesian theory?

- In this question, we assume Canada is a closed economy and is in its long-run equilibrium. TransCanada announced that they will not proceed with the East Energy pipeline in October 2017. According to the long-run classical model, what happens to the equilibrium levels of output, real interest rate, and investment in Canada after TransCanada made this announcement? What happens to the real wage in Canada? Explain your answer with the aid of TWOdiagrams - one for the loanable funds market and one for the labour market.arrow_forwardIf a recessionary gap occurs in the short run, then in the long run a new equilibrium arises when input prices and expectations adjust downward, causing the short-run aggregate supply curve to shift downward and to the right and pushing equilibrium real GDP per year back to its long-run value. The Federal Reserve can eliminate a recessionary gap in the short run by undertaking a policy action that increases aggregate demand. Which of the following is one monetary policy action that could eliminate the recessionary gap in the short run? A. The Fed can increase the money supply through an open market purchase of Treasury securities. B. The Fed can lower taxes. C. The Fed can increase the money supply through an open market sale of Treasury securities. D. The Fed can decrease the money supply through an open market purchase of Treasury securities.arrow_forwardFor each of the following situations, indicate whether the result will be an increase or decrease in aggregate supply or aggregate demand, or have no effect.

- Suppose an economist believes that the price level in the economy is directly related to the money supply, or the amount of money circulating in the economy. The economist proposes the following relationship: P=A×MP=A×M • P=Price LevelP=Price Level • M=Money SupplyM=Money Supply • A=A composite of other factors, including real GDP, that change very slowly over time.A=A composite of other factors, including real GDP, that change very slowly over time. How might an economist gather empirical data to test the proposed relationship between money and the price level?arrow_forwardConsider the AS-AD and three-equations models of a closed economy. Write down the expressions for the AS and AD curves and interpret the expressions: what is the intuition behind the two curves? What must be true of the model parameters and variables in the long-run equilibrium, i.e. in the steady state? Analyse the effects of an oil supply shock that causes a temporary increase in inflation, using the three-equation model. Assume that the shock lasts for one-period and then assumes the value 2%. Describe the mechanisms that bring the economy back to long-run equilibrium. What happens to aggregate demand? Consider an economy that starts out in steady state when the central bank decides to make the inflation target more ambitious. Analyse the effects of a decrease in the inflation target from ? to . Explain the mechanisms behind the adjustment to the new steady state.arrow_forwardSuppose the economy is operating at potential GDP when it experiences an increase in export demand. How might the economy increase production of exports to meet this demand, given that the economy is already at full employment?arrow_forward
- Consider an economy that is initially in long-run equilibrium. Assume that the long- run aggregate supply curve is vertical at Y = 3,000 (the full employment level of output) The short-run aggregate supply curve is horizontal at P = 1.0. The aggregate demand curve is Y= 2(M/P) and M= 1500. Suppose that a supply shock affects the economy in such a way that the price level becomes P = 2.0. By how much must the Central Bank (CB) change the money supply if it wishes to quickly restore the full employment output level? The CB must keep the money supply constant The CB must double the money supply. The CB must lower the money supply by 50%. The CB must raise the money supply by 50%.arrow_forwardThe following questions relate to long-run macroeconomic equilibrium and the stock market boom. Assume that a hypothetical economy is at long-run macroeconomic equilibrium, with full employment and stable prices. Suddenly the stock market prices increase much more than expected, increasing investor’s wealth, and causing a short-term period of unusually increased optimism about the future of the economy. Only need help with Subparts 4-5 In the short-run, will the AS curve or the AD curve shift, and in which direction will it shift? In the short-run, what will happen to the price level and quantity of output (real GDP)? Explain what, if any, impact will there likely be on workers’ wages, and the reasons for this impact. In the long-run, which curve will shift due to the change in wages and price expectations created by the stock market boom? In which direction will it shift? When the economy returns to its long-term output level, how will the new long-run macroeconomic equilibrium…arrow_forwardIn this section, the context is a large negative shock to autonomous consumption in an open economy. You may assume the economy is initially at a medium run equilibrium. Aggregate demand can decline for many reasons. Give a specific example of when you would choose to model the onset of a recession by a fall in autonomous consumption and explain why.arrow_forward
