# Analysis of Aggregate Demand and Aggregate Supply in Gizmet (2023-2024)In the year 2023, aggregate demand and aggregate supply in the fictional country of Gizmet are represented by the curves $AD_{2023}$ and AS on the following graph. The price level is 102. The graph also shows two possible outcomes for 2024. The first potential aggregate demand curve is given by the $AD_A$ curve, resulting in the outcome illustrated by point A. The second potential aggregate demand curve is given by the $AD_B$ curve, resulting in the outcome illustrated by point B.## Graph Explanation:![AD-AS Graph](image.jpg)The graph consists of:- The vertical axis labeled "PRICE LEVEL" ranging from 101 to 108.- The horizontal axis is labeled "OUTPUT (Trillions of dollars)" ranging from 0 to 16.- The aggregate supply curve (AS) is plotted as a positively sloped line.- The aggregate demand curve for 2023 ($AD_{2023}$) is a negatively sloped line intersecting the AS curve at a price level of 102 and an output level of approximately 6 trillion dollars (Point (6, 102)).- Two potential aggregate demand curves for 2024, $AD_A$ and $AD_B$, both negatively sloped, are also displayed. - $AD_A$ intersects the AS curve at a price level of 104 and an output level of approximately 7 trillion dollars (Point A (7, 104)). - $AD_B$ intersects the AS curve at a higher price level of 106 and an output level of approximately 8 trillion dollars (Point B (8, 106)).## Analysis Questions:1. Suppose the unemployment rate is 6% under one of these two outcomes and 5% under the other. Based on the previous graph, you would expect: - The $AD_B$ scenario, depicted by point B with a higher output, is likely associated with the lower unemployment rate (5%).2. If aggregate demand is low in 2024 and the economy is at outcome A, the inflation rate between 2023 and 2024 is: - Relatively moderate. Inflation is the increase in the price level from 102 (2023) to 104 (2024), which is an inflation rate of approximately 1.

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.

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,…
The aggregate demand and aggregate supply model is a useful simplification of the macroeconomy used to explain short-run fluctuations in economic activity around its long-run trend. The horizontal axis of a diagram of the aggregate demand and aggregate supply curves measures which of the following? The amount of a particular representative good produced in the economy The price of a particular representative good produced in the economy An economy's price level An economy's real GDP Which of the following are reasons that the short-run aggregate supply curve slopes upward? Check all that apply. As the price level rises, firms pay higher wages for workers. O As the price level rises, firms find it more profitable to hire workers at any given wage. O As the price level rises, firms expand their production because they can sell their output for more money.
Q12 Use the graph below to answer the question If South Africa were to discover a plentiful supply of cheap oil, this would: Select one: A. move the AS curve to the right. B. move the AD curve to the right. C. move the AD curve to the left. D. move the AS curve to the left.
The labor force participation rate fell during the pandemic. This would shift the LRAS curve right shift the SRAS curve up/left shift the SRAS curve down/right shift the LRAS curve left As prices rise while wages are sticky, firms' profit per unit rises. This is an explanation for why rising prices shift SRAS curve to the left the SRAS curve is upward sloping the AD curve is downward sloping rising prices shift SRAS curve to the right When the economy is at a short-run equilibrium above full employment, what is happening in the labor market? unemployment is high and there will be downward pressure on wages unemployment is low and there will be downward pressure on wages unemployment is high and there will be upward pressure on wages unemployment is low and there will be upward pressure on wages

Suppose that in 2011, the price of cotton, an input good, decreases in Microtania. Show how this event will change equilibrium output and price level by shifting either the SRAS or AD curve, and then answer the questions below. Did equilibrium output increase or decrease?Increase/Decrease Did equilibrium price increase or decrease?Increase/Decrease
In the short run, the increase in foreign spending on domestic goods associated with expansion abroad causes the price level to the price level people expected and the quantity of output to the natural level of output. The economic prosperity abroad will cause the unemployment rate to the natural rate of unemployment in the short run. Again, the following graph shows the economy in long-run equilibrium at the expected price level of 120 and the natural level of output of $600 billion, before the increase in foreign spending on domestic goods associated with expansion abroad. During the transition from the short run to the long run, price-level expectations will and the curve will shift to the
Q.1.17 A decrease in the price level will: (a) shift the AS curve to the left.(b) shift the AD curve to the left.(c) shift the AS curve to the right.(d) leave both the AD curve and the AS curve unchanged.
Given: In the Great Recession that began in 2007-8, many workers become pessimistic about their future employment, which caused them to save more and spend less. Many employees lost their jobs, which caused them to spend less. The Aggregate Demand Curve shifted to the left <--, to show a decrease in demand. (Pay close attention to the direction of the shift of the Aggregate Demand Curve --to the left!)

In the AD/AS model assume 2019 began with potential real GDP = $19.7 trillion, while actual real GDP = $19.0 trillion and the Price Level (GDP Deflator) = 210. A year later the Price Level = 214 and actual real GDP = $18.9. Based on their relative effects on the AD/AS model, which of the following scenarios best explains this new outcome? The effect of %3D Group of answer choices an increase in government spending is MORE than the effect of decreased electricity prices. an increase in wages is LESS than the effect of a decrease in government spending. a decrease in oil prices is MORE than the effect of positive consumer expectations. an increase in inflationary expectations is MORE than the effect of increased government spending.
Consider a hypothetical economy in which households spend $0.50 of each additional dollar they earn and save the remaining $0.50. The following graph shows the economy's initial aggregate demand curve (AD1). Suppose the government increases its purchases by $5 billion. Use the green line (triangle symbol) on the following graph to show the aggregate demand curve (AD2) after the multiplier effect takes place. Hint: Be sure the new aggregate demand curve (AD2) is parallel to AD₁. You can see the slope of AD1 by selecting it on the following graph. 116 114 AD₂ 112 > 1:0 4/29/ PRICE LEVEL MEADCA 110 108 AD1 A AD 3 G O
