In the year 2020, aggregate demand and aggregate supply in the fictional country of Drooble are represented by the curves AD2020AD2020 and AS on the following graph. The price level is 102. The graph also shows two possible outcomes for 2021. The first potential aggregate demand curve is given by the ADAADA curve, resulting in the outcome illustrated by point A. The second potential aggregate demand curve is given by the ADBADB curve, resulting in the outcome illus- trated by point B.

Consider the following AD/AS diagram of the macroeconomy, with LRAS shown as the vertical curve, AD as the downward sloping curve, and SRAS as the upward sloping curve. First, place a point at the current equilibrium. Then, suppose the government wants to stimulate the economy to restore it to long-run equilibrium by cutting taxes. Draw a new curve that shows the impact of this policy change. (You'll have to determine which, but draw it so that it reflects a parallel, vertical shift in one of the existing curves. Make sure that it's the same size as the ones shown here using the segment tool.) Finally, place a point at the new equilibrium using the point tool.
Economists forecast future economic conditions by studying variables that tend to fluctuate in advance of the overall economy. The most significant of these variables are known as leading indicators, and they compose the index of leading economic indicators. Which of the following variables are measured as part of this index? Check all that apply. Supplier deliveries The ratio of elderly to nonelderly workers New orders for consumer goods Stock prices The money supply True or False: Businesses and government care only about long-run economic forecasts, because they cannot adapt policy or output to accommodate short-run fluctuations. False True Suppose the most recent data show that the average initial weekly claims for unemployment insurance have recently decreased. This change suggests ____ period in the coming months.
Assume that at the start of the recession in 2017, real GDP was $16 trillion, and $12 trillion by 2018, but that the price level remained the same. On the aggregate demand-aggregate supply diagram below, use the drag tool to illustrate what occurred during the Great Recession given the two causes listed above.

A major demographic change that has been affecting the U.S. is the wave of retirements among aging baby boomers (those born between 1946 and 1964). Combined with the relative decline in the number of young people entering the labor force, the retirement of many boomers will cause the labor force to grow more slowly and age. Use the AD-AS model (along with a labor market graph) to show and explain how this will affect Y, N, W/P, and P over time.

The population has aged and there are fewer people in the labor force. Firms and workers expected the price level to rise. The economy experienced an increase in government spending. The economy was in an expansion and has adjusted. The country's overall productivity increased.
Should the government use monetary and fiscal policy in an effort to stabilize the economy? The following questions address the issue of how monetary and fiscal policies affect the economy, as well as the pros and cons of using these tools to combat economic fluctuations. The following graph plots hypothetical aggregate demand (AD), short-run aggregate supply (AS), and long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) curves for the U.S. economy in May 2026. Suppose the government chooses to intervene in order to return the economy to the natural level of output by using policy. Depending on which curve is affected by the government policy, shift either the AS curve or the AD curve to reflect the change that would successfully restore the natural level of output.

South Korea, Japan, and China are the major buyers of Qatar’s natural gas. During the COVID-19 pandemic, these counties suffered from a sharp reduction in economic growth rates. Based on our discussion of chapters 9 and 10, Use the AD and AS macroeconomic equilibrium model to show, graphically, the short run and long run impact of the low economic rates in South Korea, Japan, and China on the macroeconomic equilibrium in the Qatari’s economy (Ceteris Paribus). Assume that Qatar’s economy was initially operating at the potential level of GDP and there is no government or central bank intervention. Briefly explain
Refer to the graph shown. During the Reagan Administration (1981 to 1989), tax rates were reduced significantly, while federal defense spending rose by 80 percent. The effect of these policies on the AD curve is best shown as a movement from: Price level Multiple Choice O B O A to B A to C A to D. C AD1 ADO BOTOXI AD2 Real output Submi

Between 2007 and 2009, the United States experienced a severe financial crisis and economic downturn commonly known as the Great Recession. Starting in 2006, housing values fell 30%, causing losses in mortgage-backed securities for families and financial institutions. The recession was marked by a drop in aggregate demand that caused a decline in GDP and an increase in unemployment. Attached is an example of an aggregate demand and aggregate supply (AD/AS) model that illustrates the general trends of the U.S. economy during the Great Recession. How did the AD/AS equilibrium change over time? Support your claims by referring to your AD/AS model. Select an economic factor (GDP, unemployment, price level) and explain what impact any shifts in AD or AS (or both) had on your chosen factor. Please tailor the answer according the AD/AS model in layman's terms
Should the government use monetary and fiscal policy in an effort to stabilize the economy? The following questions address the issue of how monetary and fiscal policies affect the economy, as well as the pros and cons of using these tools to combat economic fluctuations. The following graph plots hypothetical aggregate demand (AD), short-run aggregate supply (AS), and long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) curves for the U.S. economy in February 2026. Suppose the government chooses to intervene in order to return the economy to the natural level of output by using (an expansionary/a contractionary) policy. Depending on which curve is affected by the government policy, shift either the AS curve or the AD curve to reflect the change that would successfully restore the natural level of output. Suppose that in February 2026 the government successfully carries out the type of policy necessary to restore the natural level of output described in the previous question. In July 2026,…
Hayek says that markers will heal themselves and that government should not intervene. How does the AD-AS model reflect Hayek's idea that governments cannot increase real GDP beyond the level that the free market economy is able to produce
