Suppose that a new free trade agreement allows the economy to import cheaper goods from overseas, thereby decreasing the general price level.
Adjust the following graph by either shifting the consumption function curve or the initial point on the consumption function curve (A) to illustrate the impact of a fall in the price level.

- Question #2. 13 On April 27, 2023, the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) released the data on GDP growth for the US economy for the first quarter of 2023 and revealed that the economy grew sluggisly by only 1.1 percent. Based on this report, suppose the U.S. consumers and businesses start to become pessimistic about the direction of the economy and eventually cut consumer and business spending, analyze using the IS-LM and AD-AS frameworks the short and long-run h effects of such a shock on prices, output, and real interest rate. # 3 E $ 4 Q Search R 15 % 5 f6 E L 6 17 4+ lyje Y 18 7 90 * 19 Page of 2 9 O f 112arrow_forwardPresident Biden recently boasted of his administration’s success in lowering the deficit of the US government. This reduction could be considered “budget austerity”. Budget austerity usually involves a reduction in federal government spending and/or the raising of taxes to keep the budget deficit under control. Assume that just as austerity was beginning that we found the economy at a level of Ye that was below full employment (Ye < YN), as we did in the first two quarters of 2022. Illustrate graphically using the simple expenditure model developed in class what austerity will mean when for the level of planned spending when we start at Ye<YN, in theory, for the level of planned spending and equilibrium output as it takes effect. Lastly, given the movement you show in planned spending, if any, does the policy of austerity make sense if your goal is use policy to achieve YN?

For every dollar of disposable income earned, Amy spends 50% on extra purchases. Amy pays taxes in the amount of $1000, and receives no transfers. Use this information to: Derive Amy’s consumption function in nominal terms. Suppose the price level index in the economy for 2019 is estimated to be P = 2.

- The economy is in equilibrium such that Planned Aggregate Expenditure (AE) = Aggregate Output (Y) = 1,200. We have earlier observed that when Y increased from 900 to 1,200 Aggregate Consumption (C) increased from 800 to 1000.

This new production method can be disseminated throughout the economy, bringing down production costs for businesses, and enabling the economy to make more productive use of existing resources. This brings an expansion in the economy’s productive capacity. Illustrate the predicted effects of this innovation using an AD-AS diagram. Provide bullet points to explain what is happening in your diagram. As with all of your diagrams, be sure to indicate the original and new equilibrium points, and what happens to output and price level. To conclude your explanation, explain what the link between innovation and economic prosperity and wellbeing is.arrow_forward
