Assume the equations for the IS curve and LM curves for an economy are: Y= 1,600 – 50r r=Y/50 - 12. Derive and interpret the slopes of the IS and LM curves above. Is the IS curve flatter than the LM curve? Explain. (b) Find the equilibrium levels of income (Y*) and the interest rate (r*). (a) (c) How would your answers in part (b) above change if the government increases its expenditure by 700 unit which is financed by an increase in lump sum taxes of 500 units and an increase in the money supply of 200 units? Assume the following functions: C= 700+0.8Yd I=200-25r T=120+0.25Y L=2Y-50r (d) With the help of an IS-LM diagram explain why income and interest rate changed in part (c) above. Assume the investment function changes from I=200-25r to I-200-50r. Will monetary policy be more effective on the new investment function? Use IS-LM diagrams to support (e) your answer.

A business owner is comparing between three alternatives (A, B, and C) for their new project. A. Buy a new equipment with an initial cost of $120,000; annual operating cost of $7000; and salvage value of $5000. B. Buy a new equipment with an initial cost of $105,000; annual operating cost of $10500; and salvage value of $7000. C. Continue using the same equipment they already have with an annual operating cost of $25,000. Life of all alternatives is 12 years. With interest at 8% compounded annually, which alternative should the engineer recommend? Use future worth analysis.
