The following graph shows the short-run aggregate supply curve (AS), the aggregate demand curve (AD), and the long-run aggregate supply curve (LRAS) for a hypothetical economy. Initially, the expected price level is equal to the actual price level, and the economy is in long-run equilibrium at its LRAS of $80 billion. 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. Adjust the appropriate curve or curves on the graph to reflect the increase in production costs in the short run. . Note: For simplicity, assume no impact of higher oil prices on LRAS.

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?
The following graph shows the aggregate demand curve (AD), the short-run aggregate supply curve (AS), and the long-run aggregate supply curve ( LRAS) for a hypothetical economy. Initially, the expected price level equals the actual price level, and the economy experiences long-run equilibrium at a natural level of output of $100 billion.. Suppose a bout of severe weather drives up agricultural costs, increases the costs of transporting goods and services, and increases the costs of producing goods and services. Use the graph to help you answer the questions about the short-run and long-run effects of the increase in production costs that follow. (Note: You will not be graded on any adjustments made to the graph.) Hint: For simplicity, ignore any possible impact of the severe weather on the natural level of output.
In the year 2023, aggregate demand and aggregate supply in the fictional country of Gurder are represented by the curves AD2023 and AS on the following graph. 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. PRICE LEVEL 108 107 106 105 104 103 102 101 100 0 2 AD 2023 B I A 4 6 8 10 OUTPUT (Trillions of dollars) 12 AS ADB 14 AD А 16 A LRAS Outcome C (?)
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 the year 2027, aggregate demand and aggregate supply in the imaginary country of Patagonia are represented by the curves AD2027 and AS on the following graph. The price level is currently 102. The graph also shows two potential outcomes for 2028. The first possible aggregate demand curve is given by the curve labeled ADA curve, resulting in the outcome given by point A. The second possible aggregate demand curve is given by the curve labeled ADB, resulting in the outcome given by point B. PRICE LEVEL 108 107 106 105 104 103 102 101 100 0 AD 2027 2 4 I B AS 10 6 8 OUTPUT (Trillions of dollars) AD B 12 14 16 ?
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.

Improved methods of inventory control were supposed to reduce fluctuations in inventory stocks. It is clear that these methods have helped reduce the equilibrium inventory/sales ratios in both the manufacturing and trade sectors over the past decade. Yet we find that during the 2001 recession, inventory investment accounted for more than the total decline in real GDP, the first time that had happened since 1949. Explain whether this result is due to a set of odd coincidences, or whether the improved methods of inventory control actually caused bigger fluctuations in inventory investment relative to final sales.
(Note: All your answers should be rounded to the nearest hundredth. Example: 12.034 =>12.03, 5.175=>5.18) For each of the following situations, use an AD/AS model to describe what happens to price levels and output in the United States in the short run. In each case assume the economy starts in long- and short-run equilibrium, and show the appropriate shifts in the AS or AD curves. Suppose that the AD and AS curves are given as: AD: AS: P=6.1-0.2 Y(GDP) P= -1 +0.15 Y(GDP) Using Excel create a spreadsheet with the column headings Y, AD,JAS, G, and T. Let's start with no change in G, and T. Fill in the spreadsheet's cells for Y= 19.0 to Y= 21.0 in increments of 0.1. What is the equilibrium GDP? What is the equilibrium P? Now, there is a decrease in Tax (T), i.e., tax cut by $1 (trillion). It is assumed that an 1 unit decrease in T shifts the AD curve to the right by 0.08 units. If P and Y (GDP) won't change immediately, what happens to the nation's output? (surplus, shortage, or no…

The next Olympics Summer Games will be held in 2021 in Tokyo, Japan. Qestion: Using the Aggregate Demand – Aggregate Supply (AD/AS) model, critically discuss the impact of hosting such a large scale global event on the Japanese macroeconomy.
Given: In the Great Recession that began in 2007-8, many workers become pessimistic about their future employment, which caused them to save more and spend less. Many employees lost their jobs, which caused them to spend less. The Aggregate Demand Curve shifted to the left <--, to show a decrease in demand. (Pay close attention to the direction of the shift of the Aggregate Demand Curve --to the left!)
