25. Suppose an economy exhibits a large unexpected decrease in productivity growth that lasts for a decade. However, monetary policymakers are slow to recognize that the change is to potential, not current, output and interpret the decrease in output as a recession that leads current to fall below potential output. In this scenario, policymakers believe that building and incorrectly respond by interest rates, sending the economy into a(n) pressures are gap. a. inflationary; raising; inflationary b. inflationary; reducing; inflationary c. inflationary; raising; recessionary d. recessionary; reducing; inflationary e.

3. An economy has full-employment output of 1000. The other aggregates are as follows Cd = Id = 200+0.8(YT) - 500r 200-500r G = 196 T = 20+0.25Y Money demand is Md P = 0.5Y -250(r+π²) where expected rate of inflation л² = 0.10. The nominal supply of money M = 9890. 3.1 What are the general equilibrium values of the real interest rate, price level, consumption, and and investment?. 3.2 Suppose that government purchases are increased to G = 216. What are the new gen- eral equilibrium values of the real interest rate, the price level, consumption, and and investment?.
← 2:12 Principles of Macroe... Vo LTE 4G+ R vecmeccssary: what would have happened to aggregate demand and aggregate output: 6 Consider two economies - Avalon and Eternia. In Avalon, the central bank uses interest rates to conduct monetary policy. In Eternia, the central bank conducts monetary policy by changing the money supply. a Which economy would have a more effective monetary policy? Explain. b Which country would have higher inflation? Explain. 33% c Why can't Avalon and Eternia set both interest rates and money supply? 7 This chapter explains that expansionary monetary policy reduces the interest rate and thus stimulates demand for consumption and investment goods. Explain how such a policy also stimulates imports, exports and overall net exports. (You may need to refer to chapter 13 to answer this question.) 8 Suppose economists observe that an increase in government spending of $10 billion raises the total demand for goods and services by $30 billion. a Is crowding out…
