Suppose the economy begins at full employment. Label this starting point as point "1." Then, suppose that a long strike by coal miners reduces the coal supply and increases the price of coal. Show the effects on your graph and label the new equilibrium point "2." Lastly, suppose our government wants the economy to return to full-employment as quickly as possible. Should the government intervene? If so, show the impact of successful fiscal policy on your graph. Label this new equilibrium point "3."
Consider the graph at right showing an economy in recession. Aggregate demand is currently at AD. Equilibrium currently occurs at Eo. If aggregate demand was ADF, there would be full employment. Suppose the government engages in fiscal policy that results in full crowding out. Using the line drawing tool, draw the new demand curve that shows full crowding out. Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required object. Price level Eo EF ADO F Real GDP per Year ($ trillions) SRASO ADF O U

President Biden is proposing an increase in the corporate income tax rate from 21% to 28%. Although the corporate tax rate will be higher than it is currently, it is still lower than the corporate tax rate of 35% that had been in place since President Clinton. How will this tax increase affect aggregate expenditures, equilibrium GDP and employment? Part of the reason for this proposal is to offset the increased spending from the last three stimulus packages/checks which increased Federal government's debt. Do you agree with the proposed increase in corporate tax rates? Why or why not? What are some of the costs and benefits of the proposed tax changes? Is this the right time to increase taxes? Why or why not?
The imaginary country of Acordia lists the following projected revenues and outlays for 2020: $30 million in personal income tax, $20 million in corporate income tax, $7 million in indirect taxes, $2 million in investment income, $35 million in transfer payments, $14 million in government expenditures, and $4 million in debt interest. What is the projected budget surplus (or deficit) for 2021? Calculate the amount and indicate whether it is a surplus or deficit.
You know that disposable income is $18 trillion in 2020. Consumption is $13.5 trillion, investment is $4 trillion, and the government budget deficit (G-T) is $2 trillion. Calculate the size of the trade balance (in $ trillion). Note: A surplus is a positive number, a deficit is a negative number. Start with the national income identity and add taxes such that you have expressions for disposable income (Y-T) and the government budget deficit.
