1. Aggregate demand, aggregate supply, and the Phillips curve In the year 2027, aggregate demand and aggregate supply in the imaginary country of Aso-Kuju are represented by the curves AD2027 and AS on the following graph. The price level is currently 102. The graph also shows two potential outcomes for 2028. The first possible aggregate demand curve is given by the curve labeled ADA curve, resulting in the outcome given by point A. The second possible aggregate demand curve is given by the curve labeled ADB, resulting in the outcome given by point B.

Suppose the unemployment rate is 7% under one of these two outcomes and 5% under the other. Based on the previous graph, you would expect outcome B▼ to be associated with the lower unemployment rate (5%). If aggregate demand is high in 2028, and the economy is at outcome B, the inflation rate between 2027 and 2028…

Economists forecast future economic conditions by studying variables that tend to fluctuate in advance of the overall economy. The most significant of these variables are known as leading indicators, and they compose the index of leading economic indicators. Which of the following variables are measured as part of this index? Check all that apply. Supplier deliveries The ratio of elderly to nonelderly workers New orders for consumer goods Stock prices The money supply True or False: Businesses and government care only about long-run economic forecasts, because they cannot adapt policy or output to accommodate short-run fluctuations. False True Suppose the most recent data show that the average initial weekly claims for unemployment insurance have recently decreased. This change suggests ____ period in the coming months.
Measuring Inflation and Unemployment: Around the World The growth of American tourism to Cuba has dramatically affected private sector employment, as Cuban entrepreneurs start ventures focused on this new group of tourists. The influx of American tourists to Cuba is likely to lead to Ohyperinflation, as the Cuban economy begins to expand, and new businesses begin to flourish. disinflation, as employment flourishes in the informal market. inflation, as more money chases the limited volume of goods and services available in the Cuban economy. O deflation, as Cuban businesses compete for tourist dollars.
Suppose the current inflation rate is a constant 7% and the central bank implements a disinflation policy to reduce it to its target rate of 3%. To achieve this objective the central bank, by increasing its cash rate, raise the nominal interest rate from its current 9% to 14%. In the long run, at which the central bank achieves its inflation target, what will be the nominal rate of interest, the real rate of interest and the inflation rate?
Within the classical form of the quantity theory, the demand for money is given by Md = kPY. Suppose income (Y) is given at 400 units, and the money supply (M) is fixed at 200 units. Suppose k drops from its initial value of 0.5 to 0.25. What is the initial price level? What is the new price level after the change in k? Explain the process that leads to the change in the aggregate price level.
Aggregate demand function is given by Y=7000-20P; the shirt-run aggregate supply function is given by Y=6000+5(P-Pe). The economy was in equilibrium when the government unexpectedly increased its spending which led to a shift of the aggregate demand curve to Y=7500-20P. What's the rate of inflation? Please illustrate the calculations by means of an AS-AD graph.

Research suggests that macroeconomic factors can explain the dynamics of interest rates in the economy. Suppose we are interested in understanding whether inflation plays a role in explaining interest rates. Fitting a line between the current nominal interest rate i and current inflation we obtain: i = 0.041 -0.147 What is the expected level of interest rates when inflation is at the level of 4%?
