Suppose that in 2011, Quarterville’s government cuts taxes. Show how this event will change equilibrium output and price level by shifting either the SRAS or AD curve.
Right click on image and click on open image in new tab to see the full and clear image. Consider two closed economies that are identical except for their marginal propensity to consume (MPC). Each economy is currently in equilibrium with real GDP and total expenditure equal to $100 billion, as shown by the black points on the following two graphs. Neither economy has taxes that change with income. The grey lines show the 45-degree line on each graph. The first economy's MPC is 0.5. Therefore, its initial total expenditure line has a slope of 0.5 and passes through the point (100, 100). The second economy's MPC is 0.75. Therefore, its initial total expenditure line has a slope of 0.75 and passes through the point (100, 100). Now, suppose there is a decrease of $20 billion in investment in each economy. Place a green line (triangle symbol) on each of the previous graphs to indicate the new total expenditure line for each economy. Then place a black point (plus symbol) on each graph…

Find the equilibrium level of real GDP. C. What is the spending multiolier in this model? Tax multiplier? d. Show that leakages injections at equilibrium. e. If taxes increase by $100, what is the new equilibrium level of GDP? E. Show your answers to b) and e) graphically.
Use the Keynesian cross to predict the impact of the following on equilibrium income. Use dia- grams and explain your intuition. 1. An increase in government purchases. 2. An increase in taxes. 3. An equal increase in both government purchases and taxes.
Below graph these are 5 questions. Where equilibrium will shift to A or to B if : There is a rise in public sector borrowing There is a rise in government government subsidies to the motor industry The government spends less on defence The basic rate of income tax is raised The VAT rate is cut from 20% to 15%.
Draw diagram of a typical IS-LMmodel and indicate the changes in all the variables on the diagram should there be an increase in aggregate expenditure causing a shift of the IS curve to the right ( indicate the shift in the IS curve on your diagram) Indicate where macroequilibrium will be and properly label the axes on the diagram. Briefly explain what you understand such an IS-LM model is actually reflecting in terms of macroeconomics
Which of the following would likely cause a downward parallel shift in the AE curve and a leftward shift in the AD curve? a) a reduction in government purchases b) an decrease in the MPC c) an increase in the price level O d) an increase in the business confidence of firms e) a decrease in the price level

What do you expect to happen to the equilibrium output and prices? Use the AD-AS model to illustrate it. 2. You are the economic adviser to the president of Keinesia. a. Would you advise him/her to implement Fiscal Policy? b. What type of Fiscal Policy would you recommend? c. Illustrate the effect of the Fiscal Policy on the equilibrium output and prices?

Refer to the diagram that shows an AD/AS model for a hypothetical economy. Suppose the economy is in a short-run equilibrium at Y₁. An appropriate fiscal policy for attaining potential output (Y*) is a(n) O A. decrease in current imports. O B. increase in personal and corporate taxes. O C. decrease in current consumption. O D. increase in exports. Po B Y₁ Real GDP AD G
Macroeconomics: Assuming marginal propensity to consume is 0.5. If there is a shock to the economy that increases investment spending by 200 billion dollars what will the total Change to GDP be? (Ignore taxes and imports)
The level of AD needed to achieve full employment is $150 billion. The current level of Real GDP (output) is $100 billion. A $5 billion increase in government spending closes the gap and restores FullEmployment. What is the Marginal Propensity to Consume?
