Briefly explain the reason for the near-horizontal shape of the SRAS curve on its far left.
Name some factors that could cause the SRAS curve to shift, and say whether they would shift SRAS to the right or to the left.
How is recession illustrated in an AD/AS model?
The following graph shows an aggregate demand curve (AD) illustrating the inverse relationship between the price level and the quantity of Real GDP in the United States. During World War II, the United States increased military spending. Show the effect of the following scenario on the aggregate demand curve by dragging the curve or moving the point to the appropriate position. Note: Tool tip: To move the curve, click and drag any part of the curve. The curve will snap into position, so if you try to move it and it snaps back to its original position, just try again and drag it a little farther.

What are some examples of changes in the economy that would lead to a movement along the IS curve? What are some changes that would shift the IS curve?
Determinants of aggregate demand The following graph shows an increase in aggregate demand (AD) in a hypothetical country. Specifically, aggregate demand shifts to the right from AD1AD1 to AD2AD2, causing the quantity of output demanded to rise at all price levels. For example, at a price level of 140, output is now $400 billion, where previously it was $300 billion.
Consider a macro-economy that was initially at equilibrium. Using an aggregate demand and aggregate supply diagram model of the economy, graphically illustrate and discuss the short-run and long-run effectsof the following events upon the economy:(a) The imposition of a carbon tax upon local big polluting companies;(b) An appreciation in the foreign exchange rate value of the economy’s currency;(c) A major trading partner’s economy fall into recession;(d) The country’s main exports fall in price while the goods the country imports from abroad rise in price
Suppose the Australian government increases the level of government spending. Explain how an increase in government spending impacts upon the position of the AD and AS curves. Use a relevant diagram and explain your answer in detail.
Illustrate graphically and explain the derivation of the aggregate demand curve from the IS and LM curves.

What are the four reasons why aggregate demand curves might shift? Briefly explain each one of them.
The following graph shows an increase in short-run aggregate supply (SRAS) in a hypothetical economy. Specifically, short-run aggregate supply shifts to the right from SRAS₁ to SRAS2, causing the quantity of output supplied at a price level of 125 to rise from $250 billion to $350 billion. Review the graph and then complete the table that follows. PRICE LEVEL 200 175 150 125 100 75 50 25 0 0 50 SRAS SRAS₂ 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 REAL GDP (Billions of dollars) ? The following table lists several determinants of short-run aggregate supply. Complete the table by indicating the change needed in each determinant to increase short-run aggregate supply.
