Question

Please write on the space provided what happens to each variable -- indicate whether each variable increases, decreases, or remains unchanged.  Please show in the graphs the initial equilibrium, short run equilibrium, and final long run equilibrium.  If possible, please provide only two graphs, one for IS-LM and one for AD-AS that show all of the equilibrium positions


Suppose the economy is initially in a long-run equilibrium. Starting from this position, assume that an exogenous shock such as the Covid 19 pandemic pushes the economy away from the equilibrium.   

  1. Using the IS-LM and AD-AS framework, indicate what happens in the short run to output, unemployment, prices, interest rate, consumption, investments, and real money balances, as the economy moves from long-run equilibrium to short-run equilibrium.

What economic condition is the economy in after the shock?  __________________

 

Short-run

Output              ________________

Unemployment _________________

Prices                 _________________

Interest rate        _________________

Consumption    _________________

Investment        _________________

Real Money Bal            _________________

 

2. If the government wants to keep output and unemployment constant in the face of the negative demand shock, what should it do (indicate the policy or policies that it should implement).
