Question 1 government purchases are 2000. Desired consumption and desired investment are as follows: An economy has full-employment real output of 9000, and Real Interest Rate (%) Desired Consumption Desired Investment 1500 1400 1300 6100 1.5 6000 5900 2.5 3 5800 5700 1200 1100 In this economy, suppose that the real money demand function is 0.01Y L(Y, r + nº) = %3D r+ne> where Y is real output, r is the real interest rate, and T is the expected rate of inflation. Real output is constant at the full-employment level over time. The real interest rate is fixed in good markets equilibrium per year a. Interpret the income elasticity of money demand and the interest elasticity of money demand, as well as the real money demand function. b. Suppose that the nominal supply is growing at the rate of 25% per year and this growth rate is expected to persist forever. Currently, the nominal money supply is M-1500. What are the values of the real money supply, the nominal interest rate and the current price level? (Hint: Use Quantity Theory of Money where the velocity of money is constant.)

Please pleaseee do this Question : For this question assume that the real money demand function is L(R, Y) = kY - hR where k > 0 represents the sensitivity of the money demand to income and h > 0 represents the sensitivity of the money demand to the interest rate. Suppose that these sensitivity parameters are not known for the economy of Macroland and there are two possibilities: it is either i) high k and low h, or ii) low k and high h. To understand which one of these two scenarios is correct you analyze a given policy change: an increase in the overall level of taxes. Using the AA-DD model, compare and contrast the short run effects of this policy change in Macroland under these two scenarios. Explain your results intuitively.
a) Assume that the nominal return on U.S. government T-bills was 10% during 2002, when the rate of inflation was 6%. The real risk-free rate of return on theseT-bills was: b) When individuals believe they have sufficient income and assets to cover their expenses while maintaining a reserve for uncertainties, they are most likely in the phase of the investment life cycle. gifting B. consolidation C. accumulation D. spending c) Find the duration of a 3-year bond with annual coupon payments of $80 and a par value of $1,000. The current market price of the bond is $950.25. If the YTM of the bond dropped by 1%, what would happen to the bond price?

Q8 Determine the equilibrium income Y and interest rate r, given the following information about the commodity market: C = 0.6Y + 60 I = -40r + 1300 where C and I denote consumption and planned investment, respectively, and the follow- ing information about the money market: M5 = 600 L, = 0.2Y L2 = - 30r + 40 %3D %3D where Ms, L1 and L2 denote money supply, transaction-precautionary demand for money and speculative demand for money, respectively. The marginal propensity to consume decreases. By producing a rough sketch of the IS and LM curves on the same diagram, explain whether the equilibrium values of Y and r will increase, decrease or stay the same.

2. Suppose that a representative household is part of a two-period economy, with a commodity and a credit market. He holds no initial assets (bonds or money) and no final assets, by the end of the second period. Assume that, for some exogenous reason, the price level decreases at the beginning of period one, before consumption and labor effort decisions are made. This drop is expected to last forever. a) Do you expect this change to yield any real effect? More exactly, are real aggregate output demand (through consumption) or supply (through labor effort) affected? Explain why or why not. b) Imagine now that this household leaves a bequest to the next generation. As a result, a decision is made to hold a fixed real value of bonds (b2/P) by the end of the second period. These will be paid to the children of the household. Under these conditions, will there be any impact from the price level change over the individual consumption and labor effort choices of the representative household…
