21 For each of the following scenarios, tell a story and predict the effects on the equilibrium level of aggregate output (Y) and the interest rate (r): a. During 2009, the Federal Reserve was easing monetary policy in an attempt to boost the economy. That same year, Congress passed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act which cut taxes and expanded existing tax credits for working families and businesses. b. On January 1, 2018, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act went into effect, lowering the top marginal tax rate for five of the seven income tax brackets. Assume that the Fed holds MS fixed. C. In 2014, the government raised taxes. At the same time, the Fed was pursuing an expansionary monetary policy. d. In March 2018, consumer confidence in the United States rose to its highest level since 2007, reflected by a rise in consumption. Assume that the Fed holds the money sup- ply constant. * The Fed attempts to increase the money supply to stimu- late the economy, but plants are operating at 65 percent of their capacities and businesses are pessimistic about the future. ntarctica.

Determine the macroeconomic impacts on interest rates and output from a macroeconomic shock using the September 11 terrorist attacks as an example. Background - Assume the economy was in short and long-run equilibrium before the terrorist attacks. Thus, ignore the fact that the stock market dotcom bubble busted a few months before September 11th. Analyze the short-term macroeconomic impact on the economy of this shock and discuss alternative policy responses, identifying the resulting new short-term equilibrium of the economy in the IS-LM diagram. The price level is assumed fixed as we are focusing on the short run impact. Briefly describe the circumstances surrounding the macroeconomic shock. Your analysis should identify which component of the economy (C, I, or Md) was directly affected by the attacks. Create an IS-LM diagram, tracing the macroeconomic impacts of the shock within the IS-LM framework. You can assume that the economy was in long- and short-term equilibrium…
In the basic New Keynesian model, suppose that there is an increase in government spending. • First, suppose that the central bank does nothing (accommodates the shock). Illustrate onthe graphs and explain what will be the effects on inflation and output? • Second, suppose that economy initially has inflation equal to the central bank’s inflationtarget and an output gap of zero. What action do you expect the central bank wouldundertake? Illustrate you answer on the graph and explain. PLEASE SHOW ALL HAND WRITTEN STEPS AND WORK!
Scenario FROQ In 2019 the federal government decreased interest rates for banks three times. Shortly after, POTUS tweeted the following Would be so00 great if the FED would further lower interest rates and quantitative ease. The Dollar is very strong against other currencies and there is almost no inflation. This is the time to do it. Exports would zoom! December 17, 2019 A. Define the type of economic policy inferred by scenario and describe how it impacts the economy. B. Describe why POTUS has no power to control the implied power inferred to by the scenario above. C. Describe how a change in political party leadership could effect the outlined scenario above.
The Russia-Ukraine war triggers a surging of crude oil price to a record high that leads to anegative supply shock of an economy. If the economy is currently at the full-employmentoutput, how does it affect the aggregate price and real output level in the short- and long-runif the central bank does not carry out any stabilization policies? Explain with the aid of anaggregate demand-aggregate supply diagram.

Now suppose that droughts in the Southeast and floods in the Midwest substan-tially reduce food production in the United States. Suppose you are an economistworking for the Federal Reserve.d. Use the aggregate demand–aggregate supply model to illustrate graphically the im-pact in the short run and the long run of this adverse supply shock. Be sure to label:i. the axes; ii. the curves; iii. the initial equilibrium values; iv. the direction the curvesshift; v. the short-run equilibrium values; and vi. the long-run equilibrium values.State in words what happens to prices and output in the short run and the long run.e. Use the aggregate demand–aggregate supply model to illustrate graphically your pol-icy recommendation to accommodate this adverse supply shock, assuming that yourtop priority is maintaining full employment in the economy.f. Would you recommend the same policy if your top priority was maintaining the pricestability? Why?
Using the macro model we learned in this class (MP-IS and AD-AS framework) consider the current crisis. 1. Identify the basic impacts of the Covid shutdowns on the macro economy. Explain how and why each curve will be affected. Graphically show your analysis. 2. Consider the monetary policy responses to the current crisis. Develop separate analysis for an economy which have positive policy rates vs an economy which is at the zero lower bound. Would it require different monetary policies? If so how? What would you expect to happen to the inflation rate, unemployment rate, economic growth in the near future? Use graphs for each case.
