A= C+1 45 Y. Yo Y1 Which one of the following statements is false? Y1 represents the equilibrium level of income. The curve labelled A = C +1 shows the total of consumption and investment spending. The curve labelled C shows the total of autonomous and induced consumption spending. The point labelled D shows where savings equal investment. A. C. 2. In macroeconomic theory, total or aggregate spending is denoted by A and total or aggregate production of income by Y. Which one of the following statements is incorrect? When A is greater than Y, there is disequilibrium and Y will tend to increase. When A is equal to Y, there is equilibrium and Y will remain unchanged. When A is less than Y, there is disequilibrium and Y will decrease. When A is greater than Y, there is disequilibrum and A will decrease A. 10

Problem 2: Comparative Advantage and Gains from Trade Suppose that Dennis and Janice are roommates. If Dennis puts all his effort into doing laundry, he can wash 20 loads per week. if he puts all his effort into cooking meals, he can produce 30 meals. If Janice puts all her effort into doing laundry, she can wash 20 loads per week. If she puts all her effort into cooking meals, she can produce 20 meals. a) Draw the Production Possibilities Frontier for Dennis and for Janice. Before trade, who (if anyone) has the absolute advantage in the production of laundry and meals? b) Fill in the following chart. Based on your calculations, who has the comparative advantage in laundry and who has the comparative advantage in meals. Laundry Meals Opportunity Opportunity Cost of Cost of Laundry Meals Dennis 20 Janice 20 30 20 c) Assuming that before specialization and trade both Dennis and Janice spend half of their time on each task, what is the total laundry and meal production for the household.…
