As you know, supply and demand shifts are caused by one of their determinants. Shifts in aggregate
demand (AD) show the effect of events on price level and Real GDP. Any event that causes a change in
consumer, business, or government spending or any change in net exports (C+l+G+Xn) will shift AD.
Any event that causes a change in production costs or increases productivity will shift aggregate
supply (AS).
Decide if the following events are Micro, shifting supply or demand, or Macro, shifting AD or AS. Give
the direction in which the graph shifts.

Suppose England's economy is in long-run equilibrium. As a result of the coronavirus, the British government orders all non-essential businesses to close and issue “shutter in” and other “stay at home” directives requiring its citizens and residents not to leave their residences absent emergencies and/or to purchase food and groceries from markets (that is, people cannot, for example, go to restaurants, movies or sporting events and the like.) If so, then we would predict that in the short-run England's

- On the graph, label your starting AD line as AD 2019. Draw a new AD line showing the change to AD due to the pandemic. Label your starting SRAS line as SRAS 2019. Draw a new SRAS line showing the change to supply due to the pandemic.Label the new short-run equilibrium RGDP and Price Level. Does output (i.e. RGDP) increase or decrease in your model? Does the price level increase or decrease in your model? According to the AD-AS model when RGDP falls the unemployment rises and vice versa. Does your graph indicate an increase or decrease in the unemployment ratearrow_forwardAggregate Supply curve shows the relationship between the price level and the real GDP supplied in an economy. Under what circumstances will the AS curve have a flat segment? When an economy has a vertical AS curve? The AS curve is upward sloping in the intermediate region between the horizontal and the vertical segments. What kind of macroeconomic conditions give rise to the upward sloping range?arrow_forwardIn the past two decades, the government of Qatar has made significant investments to increase the level of infrastructure and human capital in the country. Suppose the accompanying graph illustrates the aggregate demand (AD), short‑run aggregate supply (SRAS), and long‑run aggregate supply (LRAS) curves for Qatar before these investments were made. Assume all three curves were impacted by these investments. Adjust the graph to show Qatar’s new long‑run macroeconomic equilibrium.arrow_forward
- Answer both questions that need to be answered and the second question has a graph that’s needs to be answered as well.arrow_forwardSuppose the economy is in a situation of moderate unemployment, and then an exogenous increase of aggregate demand occurs. (Assume the aggregate demand schedule follows the pattern set out by the mainstream story.) Use short run aggregate supply and aggregate demand analysis to discuss in detail the effects of this demand change on the price level and real GDP in the short run. Explain how the situation could change in the long run after the happenings in the first part.arrow_forwardThe graph to the right shows an economy's aggregate demand curve. Show the determination of the economy's long-run macroeconomic equilibrium by (i) using the Line tool to draw and label the long-run aggregate supply curve to show an equilibrium and (ii) using the Point tool to identify the equilibrium point. Label this point E. Price level Real GDP AD Earrow_forward
- The economy of Chicagoland is currently producing $65 Million worth of goods and services (current real GDP). Full employment output for Chicagoland is $75 Million worth of goods and services (full employment real GDP). The price level has been declining recently. This has occurred due to a negative AD shock. Use an AD/AS graph to show the macroeconomy of Chicagoland. Label the graph correctly. First, show the long run equilibrium of Chicagoland using aggregate demand (AD) and short run aggregate supply (SRAS) at full employment. Label the full employment output Yf, and the corresponding price level, PL. Then, use Y1 to represent the current real GDP and PL1 to represent the current price level.arrow_forwardAssume that the long-run aggregate supply curve is vertical at Y = 3.000 while the short-run aggregate supply curve is horizontal at P=1.0, . The aggregate demand curve is Y = 2(M / P) and M = 1,500. a. If the is initially in long-run equilibrium, what are the values of P and Y? Draw the equilibrium using AD and short and long run AS curves.arrow_forwardThe graph on the right shows a basic aggregate demand and aggregate supply graph (with LRAS constant) that shows the economy in long-run equilibrium at point A. Assume that there is an unexpected increase in the price of oil. 1.) Use the line drawing tool to show the resulting short-run equilibrium on your graph.

- Suppose that the graph below represents the aggregate demand (AD) and aggregate supply (AS) of Guadeloupe. What will happen to Guadeloupe's economy in the long-run, according to the neoclassical view? Potential GDP OO Price Level AS AD Real GDP Guadeloupe's aggregate supply (AS) will shift to the left. Guadeloupe's potential GDP line will shift to the right. Guadeloupe's aggregate supply (AS) will shift to the right. Guadeloupe's aggregate demand (AD) will shift to the left.arrow_forwardIf the economy had been operating at a full- employment equilibrium, a. Describe the macroeconomic equilibrium after the rise in consumer spending. b. Explain and draw a graph to illustrate how the economy can adjust in the long run to restore a full-employment equilibrium. The magazine Women of China reported that Chinese women in big cities spent 63% of their income on consumer goods last year, up from a meager 26% in 2007. Clothing accounted for the biggest chunk of that spending, at nearly 30%, followed by digital products such as cell phones and cameras (11%) and travel (10%). Chinese consumption as a whole grew faster than the overall economy in the first half of the year and is expected to reach 42% of GDP by 2020, up from the current 36%.arrow_forwardThe task I am struggling with: The economy is in short-run macroeconomic equilibrium at point E1 in the accompanying diagram (see the picture). Based on the diagram, answer the following questions. a) Is the economy facing an inflationary or recessionary gap? b) What policies can the government implement that might bring the economy back to long-run macroeconomic equilibrium? Illustrate with a diagram. c) If the government did not intervene to close this gap, would the economy return to long-run macroeconomic equilibrium? Explain and illustrate with a diagram.Thank you very much for your help.arrow_forward
