Suppose the Federal Reserve decreases the money stock by 12%. Create a Classical View AD-AS graph to show the long-run effect of the Fed's monetary contraction on the US economy.
QUESTION 3 Refer to the graph shown below. Suppose the economy is initially at A but then the Fed adopts a contractionary monetary policy. Using the AS/AD model reasoning, this policy will cause the economy to move to LAS Price level C D 4 0 OC in the short run COC in the short run SAS, SAS, AD AD, SAS, AD, Bel output CAA in the short run and the long run. B in the short run and the long run and A in the long run. and E in the long run.
Consider the figure to the right. If the Bank of Canada decreases the quantity of money in circulation sufficiently to generate a leftward shift in the aggregate demand curve by $0.5 trillion, will actual equilibrium real GDP rise by this amount in the classical model? Explain. 1.) Using the line drawing tool, draw a new AD curve that shows the effects of decreasing the quantity of money in circulation by $0.5 trillion. Label your line 'AD ₂.' 2.) Using the point drawing tool, indicate the economy's new long-run equilibrium price and level of real GDP. Label this point 'E₂.' Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required objects. In the classical model, actual equilibrium real GDP from E₁ to E₂. In other words, with fall by this amount because prices and the economy moves O A. Say's law and flexible interest rates, prices and wages would always lead to full employment at a level of real GDP of $4 trillion. OB. Say's law and inflexible interest rates, prices and…

1. Based on the most recent announcement made by the RBA Governor (see the RBA Statement on the Monetary Policy Decision for May 2023 below), identify what type of monetary policy did the RBA implement in this announcement? Which part of the AD-AS model is this policy aiming to shift and in what direction? What does the RBA’s monetary policy decision tell us about which phase of the business cycle we are currently in, and which economic indicator the RBA is most concerned about? (3-4 sentences) 2. In its announcement, the RBA Governor refers to “the importance of returning inflation to target.” As part of your Policy Brief, explain what is meant by the inflation target and how does an inflation target contribute to good economic management? Based on the news updates that we discussed in our lectures and tutorials throughout this course, what are some factors that are currently contributing to inflationary pressures in Australia and globally, and which part of the AD-AS model are…
AD-AS vs the classical model and monetary policy. (a) How do the effects of a reduction of the money supply differ in the AD-AS and classical models? (b) How could we determine which of these two models best describes the actual economy? What should we be looking for in the data? (c) Why might the test you proposed in part b not be conclusive?
Assume the economy is currently operating at the natural rate of unemployment, what effects will using the Expansionary Monetary Policy // "stimulating the economy" have in the short run on output, price level, and interest rates? Please use the AS/AD and Money Market diagrams to illustrate your answer.
If the economy is in a long-run equilibrium when the Federal Reserve decides that its inflation target is too low and chooses to raise it, ________. A) it would likely conduct a tightening of monetary policy by raising the real interest rate for any given inflation rate B) it would likely conduct an easing of monetary policy by lowering the real interest rate for any given inflation rate C) it would likely conduct an easing of monetary policy where the real interest rate would increase due to the ensuing decrease in aggregate demand D) it would likely conduct a tightening of monetary policy where the real interest rate would increase due to the ensuing increase in aggregate demand E) none of the above
The classical dichotomy and the neutrality of money The classical dichotomy is the separation of real and nominal variables. The following questions test your understanding of this distinction. Janet spends all of her money on paperback novels and beignets. In 2014, she earned $14.00 per hour, the price of a paperback novel was $7.00, and the price of a beignet was $2.00. Which of the following give the nominal value of a variable? Check all that apply. 1-Janet's wage is $14.00 per hour in 2014. 2-The price of a beignet is 0.29 paperback novels in 2014. 3-The price of a beignet is $2.00 in 2014. Which of the following give the real value of a variable? Check all that apply. 1-Janet's wage is 7 beignets per hour in 2014. 2-The price of a paperback novel is $7.00 in 2014. 3-The price of a paperback novel is 3.5 beignets in 2014. Suppose that the Fed sharply increases the money supply between 2014 and 2019. In 2019, Janet's wage has risen to…
Suppose the Federal Reserve ("the Fed") shifts to an expansionary monetary policy by buying bonds through open-market operations. Assume that this policy is unanticipated. This problem will work through the short-run effects of this move. The following graph shows the money demand and money supply curves. Show the effect of the Fed's expansionary monetary policy by shifting one or both of the curves, and ignore any potential feedback effects. As a result of the Fed's policy, the interest rate to .

A to Most economists believe that real economic variables and nominal economic variables behave independently of each other in the long run. For example, an increase in the money supply, a variable, will cause the price level, a variable, to increase but will have variable. The notion that an increase in the no long-run effect on the quantity of goods and services the economy can produce, a quantity of money will impact the price level but not the output level is known as In the short run, however, most economists believe that real and nominal variables are intertwined. Economists use the model of aggregate demand and aggregate supply to examine the economy's short-run fluctuations around the long-run output level. The following graph shows an incomplete short-run aggregate demand (AD) and aggregate supply (AS) diagram-it needs appropriate labels for the axes and curves. You will…
Suppose government spending increase. Would the effect on aggregate demand be larger if the Federal Reserve held the money supply constant in response or if the Fed were committed to maintaining a fixed interest rate? Explain. Suppose a wave of business pessimism reduces aggregate demand. Show the effect of this shock on your diagram from part a. If the Fed undertakes expansionary monetary policy, can it return the economy to its original inflation rate and original unemployment rate? Now suppose the economy is back in long-run equilibrium and then the price of imported oil rises. Show the effect of this shock with a new diagram like that in part a. If the Fed undertakes expansionary monetary policy, can it return the economy to its original inflation rate and original unemployment rate? If the Fed undertakes contractionary monetary policy, can it return the economy to its original inflation rate and original unemployment rate? Explain why this situation differs from that…
