Introduction
For the benefit of the incoming administration, I submit this report to document, analyze, and interpret the macroeconomic policy decisions I made as the chief economic policy advisor of Econland. The purpose of this document is to further our national prosperity by deepening our understanding of the relationship between macroeconomic policies and their consequences for our citizens. The report includes a thorough accounting of the major fiscal and monetary policy decisions made over each of the seven years of my term, as well as an explanation of the underlying rationales for those decisions and the resulting impacts of those policies.
Table 1.1
The table above summarizes the macroeconomic climate of Econland over my term. I chose to go with the high economic growth and volatility. Overall, my performance started out being scored high at a score of 75. As I played around with the factors, my score decreased dramatically. The first year I tried not to make any drastic changes, but as the years went on I wanted to see what would get me the highest scoring. Fiscal Policy: Taxation
Table 2.1
During my seven-year term, my taxation policy decisions were driven by a combination of macroeconomic principles and models aimed at achieving specific economic goals such as promoting growth, ensuring equity, and maintaining fiscal stability. The macroeconomic principles that influenced my decision-making would be the progressive taxation system and corporate tax rate.
I had all intentions of keeping the corporate tax the same but decided to lower it to assist corporations. Income tax typically stayed around 27% and I tried not to move it much. I did lower the inflation rate to 1% to see that it helped with the real GDP a lot. This allowed for a much lower unemployment rate as well.
In the simulations, I typically kept the corporate tax rate at 30% as normal. I did adjust it a few times from year 2 to year 5 to see the outcome it may have on Ecoland. I had a higher overall score when I kept the corporation taxes higher at 30%. When I lowered it to 20%, my score dropped more than 30 points. The United States currently has a corporation tax of 21%. The idea was to mimic a real-
life situation to see if I would get the same outcome. Fiscal Policy: Government Expenditure

Economics
In terms of Classical Economics and not Keynesian:
World trade has boosted growth rates in many
countries. In around 1980, mainland China opened
its economy to trade and foreign investment. The
Chinese also implemented many institutional
reforms promoting capitalism.
1) Calculate Chinese pre-reform cumulative and
annualized growth rates from 1950 to 1979.
2) Calculate Chinese post-reform cumulative and
annualized growth rates from 1980 to 2019.
3) Please explain the differences in your calculated
numbers using the changes the Chinese
government implemented.
Hint: Use Classical Economic fundamentals to
determine the pre-reform cumulative and
annualized growth rates for the above years and
then explain them. The GDP and growth rates can
be found online in many different places.

With lockdowns currently imposed across Europe and North America until mid-April, even in the best-case scenario it will take at least until mid-June for market confidence to be restored in these economies. The implication is that nearly six million workers in Bangladesh’s formal sector – which is largely manufacturing – will be without steady work for an extended period.”
a) Which part of the production function do you think the issue mentioned above will affect? Draw two diagrams to show Real GDP and LRAS is affected in the long run.
The government should also consider an unconditional cash transfer program for an initial period of three months at a rate of $95 per month, which corresponds to the minimum wage for the formal sector in Bangladesh. This would cost the government roughly $14 billion, or 4% of GDP. While this sort of cash transfer program always suffers from targeting issues, Bangladesh enjoys a highly sophisticated mobile financial services network, which could…

IMF upgrades outlook for the global economy in 2023 Published: Wednesday | February 1, 2023 | 12:34 AM The outlook for the global economy is growing slightly brighter as China eases its zero-COVID policies and the world shows surprising resilience in the face of high inflation, elevated interest rates and Russia’s ongoing war against Ukraine. That’s the view of the International Monetary Fund, IMF, which now expects the world economy to grow 2.9 per cent this year. That forecast is better than the 2.7 per cent expansion for 2023 that the IMF predicted in October, though down from the estimated 3.4 per cent growth in 2022. The IMF noted that the world economy still faces serous risks. They include the possibility that Russia’s war against Ukraine war will escalate, that China will suffer a sharp increase in COVID cases and that high interest rates will cause a financial crisis in debt-laden countries. ###

Nominal GDP uses the price level from the benchmark year to adjust for inflation / deflation.
According to Doug Irwin, the 'limit to globalization' arises due to the large size of the service sector.
Conventional (non-PPP adjusted) GDP per capita overstates the true extent of income levels of poorer
countries.
Small countries tend to have small openness (i.e., (exports+imports)/GDP).

During the year 2020, the world faced two major challenges that disrupted economies and business
plans all over the world. The challenges came in the form of an unprecedented Covid19 pandemic
and the consequences of climatic change which brought onto economies, losses and recovery
issues. As countries struggled in the face of these challenges, economists busily tried to figure out
how to recover and place business activity back on track.
The World Economic Forum undertook a research to determine how these challenges affected

Instructions:The economic ideas of two the most influential economists: John Maynard Keynes and Frederic von Hayek have a significant impact on the US economy and the entire global economy. They had very different views about a free market economy and the role of the government. Even though they had arguments in 1930s, their ideas still affect our contemporary economic systems.
The relevance of their views will be debated in the video: Fear The Boom and Bust": Keynes vs Hayek Rap Battle. Two models below represent John Maynard Keynes and Frederic von Hayek concepts of aggregate-demand (AD) and aggregate-supply(AS) of the nation’s economy. Once you’ve watched the video and read Chapter 32: Aggregate Demand and Aggregate Supply, then answer the questions that follow.

Read the following extract and answer questions?South Africa’s economy grew by 1.1% in the first quarter of the year Stats SA has published the latest gross domestic product (GDP) data covering the first quarter of the year, showing that the economy grew by 1.1% in the first three months of 2021.The growth follows a revised 1.4% rise in real GDP in the fourth quarter of 2020. On an annualised basis, theeconomy grew 4.6% quarter-on-quarter. Following confusion caused by the annualisation of GDP data in 2020 – amid the Covid-19 pandemic andresulting lockdowns – Stats SA said it would no longer use the annualised data as the headline GDP statistic. During periods of steady economic growth, annualising is a useful way of expressing quarter-on-quarterperformance in annual terms, Stats SA said. However, during periods of economic instability, annualising can be misleading, because it exaggerates growth rates that are unlikely to be repeated.
