7. Use of discretionary policy to stabilize the economy Should the government use monetary and fiscal policy in an effort to stabilize the economy? The following questions address the issue of how monetary and fiscal policies affect the economy, as well as the pros and cons of using these tools to combat economic fluctuations. The following graph plots hypothetical aggregate demand (AD), short-run aggregate supply (AS), and long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) curves for the U.S. economy in January 2026. Suppose the government chooses to intervene in order to return the economy to the natural level of output by using Depending on which curve is affected by the government policy, shift either the AS curve or the AD curve to reflect the change that would successfully restore the natural level of output.

Start with a brief introduction that explains use of Government policy to control the economy. When is it appropriate to use monetary and fiscal policy to stimulate or stabilize the economy? Look at both. When is it inappropriate to use monetary and fiscal policy to stimulate or stabilize the economy? Look at both. What specific fiscal policy tools would you use to stimulate aggregate demand and how? What specific monetary policy tools would you use to stimulate aggregate demand and how? What is your conclusion, should policymakers use the monetary and or fiscal policy, or a combination of both, to stimulate aggregate demand? Explain your reasoning.
In the graph of Figure I, the annual growth rate of the GDP of the United States economy is presented since the first quarter of 2004, while, in the graphs of Figure II, three different scenarios of the relationship are represented between demand and aggregate supply that reflect different situations of economic growth.2. Explain in detail what is happening in Graph A of Figure II (economic growth, expansion, inflation or reccesion) according to the long and short term aggregate supply curve and aggregate demand and general price level and, examining the data in the graph of Figure I Table 1.1.1., and identify in what period of time this situation (identified in the Graph A) is ocurring.

1. In the following table, determine how each event likely effects potential output (a.k.a., long-run aggregate supply). Direction of Potential Output Shift Event Left Right No Shift The government allows more immigration of working-age adults. For environmental and safety reasons, the government requires that the country’s nuclear power plants be permanently shut down. An investment tax credit increases the rate at which firms acquire machinery and equipment. 2. In the following table, determine how each event affects the position of the aggregate demand curve.

Question 76 During the 2020 campaign, Joe Biden proposed raising income taxes on those earning more than $400,000 per year and raising corporate taxes from about 21 percent to 28 percent. Consider the aggregate demand-aggregate supply diagram below, which represents the macroeconomy. Suppose the market is initially at an equilibrium at point A. What effect will a tax increase have on this graph? Question 76 options: 1.The long-run aggregate supply curve will shift to the left. 2.The aggregate demand curve will shift to the right. 3.The aggregate demand curve will shift to the left. 4.The short-run aggregate supply curve will shift to the left.

QUESTION 5 05. The "crowding-out secondary effect expansionary macroeconomic policy a) For fiscal policy it is about government borrowing to finance the government budget deficit, associated with expansionary fiscal policy. This increased government borrowing tends to increase the market rate of interest, which dampens investment spending. b) For monetary policy it is about the expansion of the economy increasing the demand for money to service the increased volume of transactions. This tends to increase the market rate of interest, which dampens investment spending. c) Decreases the autonomous spending multiplier and thus the impact of expansionary policy. d) All of the above.
