Consider the following dialogue about the crash of the housing market and the Great Recession of 2007–2009 between two students in a economics class. Fill in the blank ALEX: Hi, Becky. I’m intrigued to see how macroeconomics allows us to explain recent economic events such as the Great Recession that affected so many people. But there’s one thing I don’t understand. Was the collapse of the housing bubble the only cause of the recession, or were there other factors as well? BECKY: Hi, Alex. I agree that macroeconomic theory offers an entirely new perspective on how the economy works. To answer your question, the crash of the housing market was a major factor but not the only cause of the Great Recession. The professor mentioned that the __________ (options: financial, fiscal, government) system deteriorated as well, an event that deepened the economic downturn even further. ALEX: I see.

Suppose there are claims that a new war in the Persian Gulf could shift the world supply curve to the left, causing the world price of oil to soar regardless of whether we drill in ANWR. How accurate is this claim? Use the same type of analysis as in the text solved problem to calculate how much a shock would cause the price to rise without and with the ANWR production. According to the solved problem, demand is initially: and supply is initially Q=117.50-0.47p Q = 70.50 +0.47p (without negative oil shocks and ANWR oil production). Now incorporate a negative oil shock of 4 million barrels a day (shifting the supply curve for oil to the left by that amount). Without the ANWR production, price rises by $4.3 per barrel. (Enter a numeric response using a rea number rounded to two decimal places.) With ANWR production of 0.8 million barrels of oil per day (and the negative oil shock), price rises by $ (Enter a numeric response using a real number rounded to two decimal places.) per barrel.
In an increasingly connected world, countries are engaging with global markets more than ever before. As a result, global wealth is shifting towards emerging markets. This megatrend—a global trend with sustained impacts—is profoundly influencing everyday life, society, and business. globalization has lifted many developing economies—most have seen expanding industrial performance and improving standards of living, particularly so in emerging economies. The emergence of a sizeable, aspirational middle class, particularly in China, has made it an important destination for global companies. Indisputably, trends can change. Still, presently, we continue to expect emerging markets to offer significant growth potential for domestic and multinational firms. Hence, understanding international business activities, flows, relationships requires understanding the economic power shifting to emerging economies. Key analytics include who they are, how they grow, the corresponding opportunities and…

A terrorist outfit (with affiliation with ISIS in a series of attacks) bombed theRussian Federation’s embassies in Cohenhagen, Tunisia, Warsow and New York City on 1st May 2020. The Russian government feels that the attacks (claiming that it has evidence) were orchestrated with the financial support from Saudi Arabia (a United States ally) and also blames the US for not imposing any sanctions against the Saudis when the first sign of warning was brought into their notice, a few months ago during a UN Security Council Meeting. The Russian Federation threatens to dump all US-denominated Treasury Bonds (accumulated through the petro-dollar market and other trade) in the global financial markets if heavy economic sanctions are not imposed on the Saudi economy. They also demand that Russian forces should independently be allowed to conduct an investigation.The US has denied the allegation. If the Russian government goes ahead with a massive selloff of US-denominated bonds, such an action…
