Show using a graph how the following shocks would affect equilibrium output. (Which parameters in the Keynesian model change? How does that shift the expenditure schedule? What happens to output as a result?) (a) Business confidence increases (b) The stock market declines (c) Credit market conditions become easier (d) The US dollar depreciates relative to the Euro (e) The stock market booms in Canada (Hint: use one picture to show what happens to Canada, then another to show how this affects the US economy)

In the AS/AD model, what are the main differences between the neoclassical perspective and the Keynesian perspective?
Please answer Question 1.1
1
The graph below is associated with a hypothetical country. Consider a decrease in aggregate demand (AD). Specifically, aggregate demand shifts to the left from AD₁ to AD2, causing the quantity of output demanded to fall at each price level. For instance, at a price level of 140, output is now $200 billion, where initially it was $300 billion. PRICE LEVEL 170 160 150 140 130 120 110 100 90 0 100 +-+ I I 200 300 400 500 OUTPUT (Billions of dollars) AD1 AD2 600 700 800 ?
In a Keynesian framework, which of the following government policy choices offer a possible solution to recession? A tax increase on consumer income. A surge in military spending. A reduction in taxes for businesses that increase investment. A major increase in what the U.S. government spends on healthcare.
A friend of yours (who has not taken macroeconomics) has just read that Keynesian theory represented a direct attack on Classical theory. They don't understand either theory and knows you (having just taken macroeconomics) are well-versed in both. They ask you to explain the basic differences between how Keynes and the Classics understood the business cycle and their respective policy prescriptions. Your answer should probably include: a) a basic explanation of what full-employment GDP means and how it relates to the stability condition S=| (or, equivalently, leakages = injections); b) an explanation of why the Classicals believed that any movement away from full-employment GDP would be quickly fixed/reversed; c) an explanation of why Keynes thought the Classicals* "auto-correcting" story was problematic, i.e., a detailed explanation of Keynes' multiplier concept (how did Keynes believe a recession would unfold (step-by-step) and why did he believe it could persist); d) an explanation…
Which of the following would properly be classified as an unfavorable supply shock? a)The interest rate decreases, spurring investment spending. b)The government introduces a set of market reforms that strengthens property rights and makes it easier and safer for buyers and sellers to write contracts. c)The world price of oil increases rapidly without warning and is expected to remain at the new high level for many years, making it more expensive for all firms to produce goods and services. d)There is a technological improvement that allows firms to reduce their costs of production permanently. e)There is an increase in government spending.
Using AD/AS analysis, critically evaluate the problems economic policy makers may face in response to a health pandemic that closes the economy for a period of time. In your answer, use diagrams and focus specifically on the effectiveness of monetary and fiscal policy and comment on the potential long-run implications of the pandemic on the economy. The diagrams used should be your own and not taken from another source.
Sort the following shocks into aggregate supply or aggregate demand shocks. Remember that "shocks” include both good and bad events. No need to motivate your answer. Fall in the price of oil A rise in consumer optimism A hurricane that destroys factories Good weather that creates a bumper crop A rise in sales taxes Foreigners buy fewer goods Fear New inventions occur at a faster pace A faster money growth rate

Explain and show graphically how a good weather shock affects the labor, goods, or the asset market. b. Explain and show graphically how a good weather shock affects the short-run equilibrium. c. Explain and show graphically how a good weather shock affects the general (long-run) equilibrium.
If an economy starts in a long run equilibrium and then there is a large decrease in the stock market and decrease in consumer wealth, what happens to the expected and actual prices? Does this affect real wages and price changes in other countries as well?
