Following an increase in consumer confidence, the US economy is experiencing a significant increase in aggregate spending. Using a correctly labeled aggregate demand and aggregate supply diagram, show how the change in aggregate spending will affect each of the following in the short run -Output -The price level
As you have learned in Unit 8 (this week), monetary and fiscal policy play important roles in economic stimulation and or stabilization. In this regard: a. When is it appropriate to use monetary and fiscal policy to stimulate or stabilize the economy? b. When is it inappropriate to use monetary and fiscal policy to stimulate or stabilize the economy? c. What specific fiscal policy tools would you use to stimulate aggregate demand and how? d. What specific monetary policy tools would you use to stimulate aggregate demand and how? e. What is your conclusion, should policymakers use the monetary and or fiscal policy to stimulate aggregate demand? Explain briefly.
Differentiate long-run aggregate supply from short-run aggregate supply.
Consider the following AD/AS diagram of the macroeconomy, with LRAS shown as the vertical curve, AD as the downward sloping curve, and SRAS as the upward sloping curve. First, place a point at the current equilibrium. Then, suppose the government wants to stimulate the economy to restore it to long-run equilibrium by cutting taxes. Draw a new curve that shows the impact of this policy change. (You'll have to determine which, but draw it so that it reflects a parallel, vertical shift in one of the existing curves. Make sure that it's the same size as the ones shown here using the segment tool.) Finally, place a point at the new equilibrium using the point tool.
Which of the following is implied by a rightward shift in the economy's AS curve? There is a demand shock. The same output will be produced, but only at a higher price level. At any given price level, a higher level of output will be supplied. At any given price level, a lower level of output will be supplied.
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?
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. Suppose a stock market boom increases household wealth and causes consumers to spend more. Shift the short-run aggregate supply (AS) curve or the aggregate demand (AD) curve to show the short-run impact of the stock market boom. 240 AS 200 AD 160 AS 120 80 AD 40 200 400 600 800 1000 1200 OUTPUT (Billions of dollars) In the short run, the increase in consumption spending associated with the stock market expansion causes the price level to the price level people expected and the quantity of output to the natural level of output. The stock market boom 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 consumption spending associated with…

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. PRICE LEVEL 150 50 30 130 110 8 70 80 50 20 20 22 24 LRAS 28 AS OUTPUT (Trillions of dollars) AD 28 30 AD ਵੇ ㅁ AS ?

Need help with this. Please show how to adjust the AS and AD lines. Thanks!
The following graph plots an aggregate demand curve. Using the graph, shift the aggregate demand curve to depict the impact that a tax hike has on the economy. Suppose the governments of two very similar economies, economy N and economy M, implement a tax cut of equal size. The tax cut in economy N is permanent, while the tax cut in economy M is temporary. The economies are otherwise completely identical. The tax cut will have a larger impact on aggregate demand in the economy with the (temporary tax cut/permanent tax cut) .
Price level (P) LRAS, LRAS2 SRAS, E SRAS, AD2 AD, Real GDP (Y) Based on the figure, which of the following would cause the aggregate demand curve to shift from AD1 to AD2?
