Suppose the economy is in the long-run equilibrium. b. Now suppose war in the world's main oil- producing region sharply reduces the world oil supply, causing oil prices to rise and increasing the costs of producing goods and services in this economy. Use your diagram to show what happens to output and the price level in the short run. c. Use the sticky-wage theory of aggregate supply to explain what will happen to output and the price level in the long run (assuming there are no policy changes). What role does the expected price level play in this adjustment? Be sure to illustrate your analysis in a graph.

Why does the short-run aggregate supply curve slope upward to the right? If the prices of both (a) resources and (b) goods and services increased proportionally (by the same percentage), would business firms be willing to expand output? Why or why not?

Assuming no change in hours of work, if real output per hour of work increases by 15 percent, what will be the new levels of real GDP in the right column of B? Instructions: Enter your answers rounded to 1 decimal place.

Suppose that the coronavirus pandemic (COVID 19) in 2020 has resulted in a leftward shift of the aggregate demand curve (it has also shifted the short-run aggregate supply to the left, but let’s ignore this effect here for simplification). A. Use the aggregate-demand/aggregate-supply model to show the effects on output and the price level/inflation in both the short run and long run (assume that the short-run aggregate supply curve is upward sloping). B. Show the adjustment process of the economy from the short run to the long run. C. What is the effect on unemployment in short run and long run? D. Can policymakers use monetary policy (and/or fiscal policy) to accommodate this shock? Describe what happens to the economy in response to this policy action.
The following graph illustrates the market for cashews. It plots the monthly supply of cashews and the monthly demand for cashews. Suppose a stretch of unseasonably good weather occurs, allowing cashew growers to produce more cashews per hectare. Show the effect this shock has on the market for cashews by shifting the demand curve, supply curve, or both Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther PRICE (Dollars perton) 12 18 Supply Demand QUANTITY (Thousands of tons) 24 30 Demand Supply

Suppose the natural level of output in this economy is $10 trillion. On the following graph, use the green line (triangle symbol) to plot the long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) curve for this economy.

The graph below presents the Short Run Aggregate Supply Curve and the Aggregate Demand Curve for Sanaton in 2001. Based on this graph, answer the questions: What is equilibrium output (Real GDP)? What is equilibrium price level?
Suppose firms become very pessimistic about future business conditions and significantly reduce investment spending. Show the short-run effect of this pessimism on the aggregate-demand curve.

a. Beginning with long-run equilibrium, use the aggregate demand (AD) and aggregate supply (AS) model to explain (and illustrate) what happens in the short run when the economy suffers a negative supply shock. Be sure to detail what happens to aggregate demand, aggregate supply, the price level, the level of GDP, and unemployment.
