Consider an IRP AS/AD Model with sticky wages initially with yo = 100. Suppose we know that an increase in the money supply in a flexible exchange rate regime will result in y3 = 120. If monetary authorities took steps to maintain the exchange rate fixed at eg, then the most like outcome for real GDP would be closest to Group of answer choices 100 115 120 125

How would a new gold standard contribute to macroeconomic stability in emerging economies with international financial capital inflows into their capital structures? Gold could be seen as a financial asset, but what is the essential characteristic of the gold standard as monetary regime? Consider the capital structure and heterogeneous capital. How would capital inflows influence domestic capital structures? How would the capital structure develop when there is a positive effect on productivity growth? What is required for macroeconomic stability? Consider capital-based macroeconomics and convertibility as monetary regime. What lessons can be drawn from the interwar gold-exchange standard? Can we return to convertibility? Use the course readings to analyze macroeconomic stability in emerging economies with international capital inflows under a new gold standard. Make references in the text. Course Readings: Artus, Patrick, Andr Cartapanis and Florence Legros (ed.), (2005), Regional…
The transmission mechanism for contractionary monetary policy implies that: a. Australian financial assets will become more attractive to the rest of the world, increasing the supply for Australian dollars in the exchange rate market, which leads to a depreciation of its exchange rate that in turn increases net exports. b. Australian financial assets will become more attractive to the rest of the world, increasing the demand for Australian dollars in the exchange rate market, which leads to an appreciation of its exchange rate that in turn decreases net exports. c. Australian financial assets will become more attractive to the rest of the world, decreasing the supply of Australian dollars in the exchange rate market, which leads to an appreciation of its exchange rate that in turn decreases net exports. d. Australian financial assets will become more attractive to the rest of the world, increasing the demand for Australian dollars in the exchange rate market, which…
Consider the AA-DD model with flexible exchange rates. Assume the economy is initially at full employment. answer B only! Suppose a temporary shock to the money demand pushes the economy into recession. Describe one policy intervention that takes the economy back to its pre- shock equilibrium position. b) How does your previous answer change if the temporary shock originates in the goods’ market?
The Model of A Sudden Stop Consider a two-period, small, open economy. In period 1, households receive an endowment of 6 units of tradable goods and 9 units of nontradable goods. In period 2, households receive 13.2 units of tradables and 9 units of nontradables (QT = 6, Q = 13.2, and QN = QN = 9). Households start period 1 with no assets or liabilities (B; = 0). The country enjoys free access to world financial markets, where the prevailing interest rate is 10 percent (r* = 0.1). Suppose that the household's preferences are defined over consumption of tradable and nontradable goods in periods 1 and 2, and are described by the following utility function, In Cf + In CN + In C + In C", where C and CN denote, respectively, consumption of tradables and nontradables in period i = 1,2. Let pi and P2 denote the relative prices of nontradables in terms of tradables in periods 1 and 2, respectively. 1. Solve for Cf, C, CN, CN, P1, and p2, and calculate the equilibrium levels of the current…
In light of your answers to parts (b) and (c), compare the relative effectiveness of fiscal and monetary policy in influencing aggregate demand when the exchange rate is floating.
Under a fixed exchange rate regime, the central bank must act to keep: 01) i =E*i*. 2) E= 1. O 3) Y=Y*. 4) P = P. 5) NX = 0. 6) none of the answers is correct
Determine the impact of productivity differentials (across tradable and non-tradable sectors) on the real exchange rate and state the main predictions of the Balassa-Samuelson model.
Problem 3. Spillovers and International Transmission of Shocks Panama (Home) is a small open economy that pegs its exchange rate to the US (Foreign) dollar. Assume that shocks/policies of Panama have no impact on the US economy as it is a small country. We assıme that investment in Panama only depends on the real interest rate so that when rates rise investment falls and vice versa. Formally, we can write I = I(R), I'(R) < 0. We will say that a shock is transmitted positively from the US to Panama, whenever outputs of the US and Panama move in the same direction in response to that particular shock. A shock is transmitted negatively if the outputs of the US and Panama move in opposite direction. Furthermore, assume that all shocks analyzed below are temporary. (a) Using the AA-DD framework, show the effect a US monetary expansion (R* 4) on output, inter- est rates, money supply, and the exchange rate in Panama. Do US monetary shocks transmit positively or negatively to Panama? (b) Do…
The following Mundell-Fleming model of a small, open economy will be used in all numerical exercises. It assumes a short-run framework in which prices are constant and output is demand-determined. C = 200 + 0.8(Y − T) I = 500 − 30r NX = 10 − 100e M/P = 50 + Y − 60r r = 2 G = 200 T = 100 M = 4000 P = 2 Assume that the exchange rate is floating. a.) Derive the equilibrium equations for IS* and LM*, sketch a graph of the two equations and solve for the equilibrium values of Y, e and NX. b.) Suppose the Treasury attempts to stimulate the economy by decreasing taxes T from 100 to 20. Calculate the new values of Y, e and NX. With the help of the graph you sketched in (a), explain the mechanism by which a new equilibrium is reached. c.) With all other exogenous variables at their original levels, suppose the Central Bank attempts to stimulate the economy by increasing money supply M from 4000 to 4200. Calculate the new values of Y, e and NX. Explain the mechanism by which a new equilibrium is…
