Using appropriate real-life macroeconomic example(s), compare and contrast Keynes' Law and Say's Law as they relate to aggregate demand and aggregate supply.
In the Keynesian Cross model, an increase in government purchases by one unit would generate an increase in output by less than one unit. True or False
Apparently, Keynes assumed stable prices regardless of the level of government money creation. Was this naive or simply wrong? Keynes had a great many theories within what he called his general theory which might have been discussed by him un-knowingly after his death. The tradeoff between inflation and unemployment, the so-called "Phillips Curve," by Milton Friedman reduced the need of disposable government spending claiming it was inflationary. Barron's suggests that the collapse of Keynes's theory was due to the global inflation that are so consistently referred to in many of its articles. We really can't say what was Keynes intent and all we can say is that all the above are true. both B and C are correct D
Keynes recommended that high unemployment should be remedied with a reduction in the money supply an increase in government expenditures an increase in taxes an increase in aggregate supply
Compare and contrast the ideas of Keynes and the policies based on his ideas with the ideas and policies of the supply-side economists who came to prominence with the election of Ronald Reagan in 1980.

In Figure 2 above, what are the factors that may cause the aggregate demand to shift from AD to AD1? What is the difference between demand pull inflation, cost push inflation and recession?
Keynes advocated the use of fiscal and monetary policy to stabilize an economy? When are the effects of these policies most beneficial? Select all that apply. Select one or more: In the short run When the economy is operating at full employment When the economy is operating significantly above full employment When the economy is operating significantly below full employment In the long run
Consider a Keynesian model where: exports = R10 million the marginal propensity to import out of income = 0,35 autonomous imports = R10 million the tax rate = 0,2 government spending = R25 million investment = R20 million autonomous consumption = R15 million the marginal propensity to consum = 0,75 e The equilibrium level of aggregate spending is:
Suppose policymakers decide to reduce the budget deficit by cutting government spending. Use the Keynesian Cross model to illustrate graphically the impact of a reduction in government purchases on the equilibrium level of income. Be sure to label: (a) the axes, (b) the curves, (c) the initial equilibrium values, (d) the direction the curve shifts, and (e) the final equilibrium values. Explain in words what happens to equilibrium income as a result of the cut in government spending. (100 words max)
There are several graphs that can be used to illustrate Keynes' distinction between macroeconomics and microeconomics. Here are a few examples: Aggregate Demand and Supply Curve: This graph shows the relationship between the total amount of goods and services demanded in an economy and the total amount of goods and services supplied. It is a macroeconomic concept because it measures the behavior of the economy as a whole, rather than individual consumers or producers.Show this on a graph please.
A friend of yours (who has not taken macroeconomics) has just read that Keynesian theory represented a direct attack on Classical theory. They don't understand either theory and knows you (having just taken macroeconomics) are well-versed in both. They ask you to explain the basic differences between how Keynes and the Classics understood the business cycle and their respective policy prescriptions. Your answer should probably include: a) a basic explanation of what full-employment GDP means and how it relates to the stability condition S=| (or, equivalently, leakages = injections); b) an explanation of why the Classicals believed that any movement away from full-employment GDP would be quickly fixed/reversed; c) an explanation of why Keynes thought the Classicals* "auto-correcting" story was problematic, i.e., a detailed explanation of Keynes' multiplier concept (how did Keynes believe a recession would unfold (step-by-step) and why did he believe it could persist); d) an explanation…
In the Keynesian Cross model, an increase in autonomous consumption would result in a decrease in output. True or False
