There are two schools of thought on how to managing the economy. The first is demand-side economics which also the Keynesian approach. This approach maintains that the demand for products and services drives the economy as such economic policies should focus on the aggregate demand curve. The other approach is called supply-side economics or more popularly referred to as Reaganomics. In this trickle-down approach, it is postulated that the production of goods and services is what drives the economy with the focus on the aggregate supply curve. Both fiscal and monetary policies have the potential to stimulate change in either the aggregated demand or the aggregate supply curves.

Does the history of the marginal income tax structure in the U.S. support or challenge the idea of tickle down economics?arrow_forwardWhich is a valid interpretation of Keynes' law? Focusing exclusively on supply side economics will make the economy grow the fastest. Each time goods are produced, it represents income for someone. Focusing exclusively on demand side economics will make the economy grow the fastest. A given value of supply creates an equal value of demand somewhere in the economy. Demand creates its own supply. In the long run, supply and demand grow at the same rate.arrow_forwardCompare and contrast the classical and Keynesian views of aggregate demand and aggregate supply.arrow_forward
- Complete the following table by matching the macroeconomic assumptions about aggregate supply to the appropriate school of thought. Assumption Classical Keynesian Only an increase in aggregate demand can move an economy out of a recession and back to potential real GDP quickly. Product prices and wages tend to be inflexible. The following graph shows the aggregate demand (ADAD) and aggregate supply (ASAS) curves for a hypothetical economy that is currently operating below its full-employment output level. That is, the economy is currently in a recession. The aggregate supply curve (ASAS) in this diagram is consistent with the view of aggregate supply. According to this viewpoint, the government should spending in response to the recession. Shift the appropriate curve on the graph to illustrate the impact of this change in government spending.

This was my discussion post from last time: Potential GDP is defined as the amount of real GDP an economy can produce by fully employing its existing levels of labor, physical capital, and technology in the context of its existing market and legal institutions.

- The graph below is associated with a hypothetical country. Consider an increase in aggregate demand (AD). Specifically, aggregate demand shifts to the right from AD1AD1 to AD2AD2, causing the quantity of output demanded to rise at each price level. For instance, at a price level of 140, output is now $400 billion, where initially it was $300 billion. Fill in the missing values in the table by selecting the change in each scenario required to increase aggregate demand. Change required to increase AD Expected rate of return on investment.

(improve/worsen) Government spending (increase/decrease)arrow_forwardKeynesian economics predicts that if government policy makers deem current equilibrium real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) to be "too low," then an appropriate policy action would be to do nothing, because the economy is self-adjusting. raise government spending, thereby increasing aggregate demand and pushing up real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) with little or no inflationary consequences. increase taxes, thereby causing aggregate demand to increase and inducing a rise in real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) with little or no inflationary consequences. reduce the money stock, thereby causing aggregate demand to decrease and inducing a rise in fall in the price level that generates an increase in total planned expenditures.arrow_forwardA stimulative monetary or fiscal action should increase aggregate demand.
