Consider the Keynesian Cross model. If the fiscal multiplier equals 2, and the government decides to increase government purchases by 100, by how much would equilibrium output increase?
Based on the Ricardian equivalence, increased government borrowing by $1 will cause: The public to increase savings by $1 The public to decrease savings by $1 Private investment to increase by $1 Public investment to fall by more than $1
If a recession persists due to nominal wage and price stickiness (i.e., slow adjustment of nominal wages downward), what kind of fiscal policy can bring us out of this recession? decreased government expenditures and increased taxes increased government expenditures and decreased taxes decreased government expenditures contractionary fiscal policy
In an effort to increase output in the short run due to the poor economy, government officials have decided to cut taxes. They are considering two possible temporary tax cuts of equal size in terms of lost revenue. The first would reduce the taxes on people with incomes above $100,000 per year. The second would cut taxes on people with incomes below $60,000 for one year. Which change would have a greater impact on aggregate spending (i.e shift the aggregate demand curve further to the right)? Why?
Contrast the effectiveness of fiscal policy in the AD-AS and IS-LM models.
Using the Aggregate Supply -Aggregate Demand model describe both the short run and the long run effects of a reduction in corporation tax for an economy currently producing at their potential GDP level.
Which of the following statements about automatic stabilizers in Canada is the most accurate? They are the responsibility of the provinces since they, unlike the federal government, do not face lag problems. They are controlled by the Bank of Canada to help manage the business cycle. They are able to completely eliminate all the lag problems associated with fiscal policy. They are changes in government transfer payments and tax revenues that vary automatically and inversely to business cycle changes.
Which of the following is an example of an automatic stabilizer? tax rates the MPC the amount of dollars collected in taxes interest rates
Consider the following model: Y=C+I+G, C=c(Y-T), I=i(Y,r) Analyze the effects of expansionary and contractionary fiscal policies and indicate them on a graph.
Which of the following policies will shift the IS curve to the right a) An increase in the equilibrium level of income y* b) the central bank buys public debt c) an increase in government spending d) All of the choice are correct
An economy is in equilibrium at a real GDP of 750, but current estimates put potential output at Yp = 700. a) Answer the following fill-in the blank question. When Y = 750 and Yp = 700 there is a (Select One) gap and the size of the gap is equal to 0 (Select One) inflationary b) Answer the following fill-in the blank recessionary Note: Keep as much precision as possible design calculations. Your final answer should be accurate to at least three decimal places. Research suggests that the MPC is 0.8, the MPM is 0.15, and the net tax rate is 0.2. Therefore, the slope of AE is Oand the multiplier is 0 which means that G must be decreased by 0 to remove the gap and achieve equilibrium. c) If the government preferred to change its net tax rate to eliminate the gap, and not change government expenditure, what new tax rate would be required to eliminate the gap? Note: Keep as much precision as possible during your calculations. Your final answer should be accurate to at least three decimal…
Please note that this is a multi part quesition; thank you so much for your time and effort it means so much to me! Figure 1: Hayek’s (Classical) AD-AS Model (Image normally goes here) Part 1: Why does Hayek’s aggregate supply curve always lead to an equilibrium level of national output equal to the full-employment level of real GDP? Part2: Hayek says that markets 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? Part 3: Do you believe that the Hayek’s classical AD-AS model explain the factors that cause changes (shifts) in AS realistically? Why or why not?
