Consider and economy described by the following equations: Y = C+I+G+ NX Y = 10000 G= 2000 T= 1500 C= 300 + .7 (Y-T) I= 500 – 25r NX = 1000 - 1000€ 1=r* = 6 a) In this economy, solve for national savings, investment, the trade balance, and the equilibrium exchange rate. b) Suppose now that G falls to 1,500. Solve for national savings, investment, the trade balance, and the equilibrium exchange rate. c) Now suppose the world interest rate falls from 6 percent to 5 percent. G is again 2000. Solve for national savings, investment, the trade balance, and the equilibrium exchange rate.

Consider an economy with the given equations. Y = C + I + G + NX Y=$6000 G=$1050 T=$1100 C=$250+0.65(Y−T) I=1000−45r NX=1285−1285? r=r*=6 b. Suppose now that G rises to $1350. Solve for private saving, public saving, national saving, investment, the trade balance, and the equilibrium exchange rate.
1) Consider a large open economy that engages in a fiscal contraction. In response to this policy change, what will happen to (a) national savings (b) the real rate of interest (c) net capital flows (d) the real exchange rate and (e) net exports?
Suppose that in Tunisia, a small open economy, savings initially exceeds investment. Due to events in the European economy, there is a decline in the world real interest rate. Using a supply and demand diagram, explain what happens in the savings and investment market in Tunisia. Be sure to show in the graph and explain what happens to net exports and net capital outflows. Assume initially that investment exceeds savings in Tunisia.
Q3-19 The IS/LM/BP analysis suggests that, if the BP curve is flatter than the LM curve and the exchange rate is flexible, expansionary fiscal policy will lead to _______ of the country's currency.This will make the fiscal policy _______ effective in influencing national income than if the country had a fixed exchange rate. Select one: a. a depreciation / more b. a depreciation / less c. an appreciation / more d. an appreciation / less
A10 Suppose that P = 100, P* = 200, e = 0.75 where P is the domestic price level, P* is the foreign price level and e is the nominal exchange rate (i.e. number of domestic currency units required to buy 1 unit of foreign currency).a) Find the real exchange rate.b) If the domestic price level increases, what will be the effect on the real exchange rate, imports and exports?

Derive the equation for the LM curve. Solve for Y. Solve for NX and e. Using the information from parts a. to d. above, graphically illustrate on a clearly labelled diagram, the short-run impact of contractionary fiscal policy on the exchange rate and level of output in this small open economy. Assuming that the economy adopted a fixed exchange rate system, illustrate on a clearly labelled diagram, the impact of contractionary fiscal policy. In one sentence, explain the type of intervention needed to maintain the fixed exchange rate proposed in part f. above.

17. Consider two exchange rates X/Y and Z/Y. (For example EUR/USD and JPY/USD.) They both follow perfectly correlated geometric Brownian motions with parameters (1,01) and (μ2,02). (a) The cross-exchange rate X/Z (for example EUR/JPY) follows a standard Brownian motion (b) The cross-exchange rate X/Z (for example EUR/JPY) follows a general Brownian motion (c) The cross-exchange rate X/Z (for example EUR/JPY) follows a geometric Brownian motion (d) The cross-exchange rate X/Z (for example EUR/JPY) does not follow a geometric Brownian motion
