The graphs illustrate an initial equilibrium for the economy. Suppose that firms' expectations of future profits increase. Use the graphs to show the new positions of aggregate demand (AD), short-run aggregate supply (SRAS), and long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) in both the short run and the long run, as well as the short-run and long-run equilibriums resulting from this change. Then, indicate what happens to the price level and real GDP (or aggregate output) in the short run and in the long run.

Suppose firms become very optimistic about future business conditions and invest heavily in new capital equipment. a. Draw an aggregate-demand/aggregate-supply diagram to show the short-run effect of this optimism on the economy. Label the new levels of prices and real output. Explain in words why the aggregate quantity of output supplied changes. b. Now use the diagram from part (a) to show the new long-run equilibrium of the economy. (For now, assume there is no change in the long run aggregate-supply curve.) Explain in words why the aggregate quantity of output demanded changes between the short run and the long run. c. How might the investment boom affect the long run aggregate-supply curve? Explain Plaese mam/sir give me answer in deatail as soon as possible please

Instructions: Enter your answers as whole numbers. A) What are the equilibrium price level and the equilibrium level of real output in this hypothetical economy? Is the equilibrium real output also necessarily the full-employment real output? B)If the price level in this economy is 150, will quantity demanded equal, exceed, or fall short of quantity supplied? By what amount? If the price level is 250, will quantity demanded equal, exceed, or fall short of quantity supplied? By what amount? C) Suppose that buyers desire to purchase $ 200 billion of extra real output at each price level. What are the new equilibrium price level and level of real output?
Connect assignment O es Use the following information to draw aggregate demand (AD) and aggregate supply (AS) curves on the following graph. Output Demanded (Aggregate Demand) Output Supplied (Aggregate Demand) Price Level 600 100 Price Level (average price) Instructions: Use the tools provided 'AD' and 'AS' to plot the aggregate demand (AD) and aggregate supply (AS) curves.
