Consider the following short-run IS-LM model described by equations (1) through (6): (1) C= 200+ 0.8(Y - T); (2) T = 800; (3) G = 500; (4) 1 = 700 - 25 r; (5) Y=C+I+G; (6) M/P = 0.6Y - 60r where the nominal money supply is M-1800 and the price level is P = 3. Then, in the short run, the equilibrium interest rate for the economy is given by: Or* = 12.44 percent Or* = 9.56 percent Or* = 10.42 percent Or* = 8.28 percent

(i) Walras’s law is derived from the budget constraints of all the economic agents in the economy. Can Say’s law be similarly derived from budget constraints? Use the relevant constraints and specify the additional assumptions needed for this derivation. Assess the validity of these assumptions.(ii) What are the implications for monetary policy if both Walras’s law and Say’s law are imposed on the IS–LM model? Assess the likely validity of these implications. If they do not seem to be valid, which of these two laws should be discarded? Derive the implications for monetary policy of imposing the remaining law on the IS–LM model.(iii) Do the modern classical or/and new classical schools effectively reinstate Say’s law as one of their component doctrines? Is so, should they state it explicitly? Discuss

Consider the following equations describing real money demand: M/P=Y(4-1.5i) So, if output (Y) in the economy is 820 million USD, National bank decide to print (M) 200 million USD and price level (P) is 5, what is equilibrium level of interest rate in the economy?
What are the implications of drawing an LM curve for money market equilibrium if a) money supply is kept fixed, b) the interest rate is kept fixed, and c) an intermediate policy is adopted looking at both interest rates and monetary aggregates?
In the IS/LM model, if the Keynesian expenditure multiplier is 2.76, the investment sensitivity to interest rates is 10, the income elasticity of money demand is 0.2 and the interest rate elasticity of money demand is 3, then the monetary policy multiplier with respect to income is 3.2 -0.12 0.12 -3.2
Discuss briefly the liquidity preference theory (LFT) and differentiate it from the loanable funds (classical) model of interest rate determination. Differentiate the equation of demand for real money balances in the Keynesian model based on the LFT from the equation of demand for real money balances in the classical model based on the quantity theory of money, by providing their respective money demand equations.
