a

To determine

To show:Effect on IS and LM curve due to decrease in the expected future real interest rate.

a

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

A decrease in expected future interest rates will cause the IS curve to shift to the right. It will also cause the LM curve to shift downwards. Since expectations of future interest rates will affect current variables, the LM curve would shift downwards in much the same way as it would under monetary expansion. The IS curve will shift to the right, causing output to increase and the current interest rate to decrease.

Economics Concept Introduction

Introduction:

IS curve is a graphical representation of goods market equilibrium showing combination of interest rate and output level.

LM curve is a graphical representation of money market equilibrium showing combination of interest rate and output level.

b)

To determine

To show:Effect on IS and LM curve due to an increase in the current real policy interest rate

b)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Increasing the current money supply would shift the LM curve downwards. If the expectations of financial market participants do not change, the IS curve will remain the same and output won't change by much. If people expect the future interest rates to change, the IS curve right shift to the right, increasing output by a significant amount.

IS curve is a graphical representation of goods market equilibrium showing combination of interest rate and output level.

LM curve is a graphical representation of money market equilibrium showing combination of interest rate and output level.

c)

To determine

To know:Effect on IS and LM curve due to an increase in expected future taxes.

c)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

An increase in future taxes will shift the IS curve to the left. The current output will decrease as consumers will have less disposable income to spend on consumption. This will lead to a lower level of output.

IS curve is a graphical representation of goods market equilibrium showing combination of interest rate and output level.

LM curve is a graphical representation of money market equilibrium showing combination of interest rate and output level.

d)

To determine

To find:Effect on IS and LM curve due to decrease in expected future income.

d)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

A decrease in expected future income will have the same effect as in part (c). The IS curve will shift to the left and lead to a decrease in consumption. Again, a decrease in future income will cause consumers to have less disposable income, leading to a lower level of output.

Four heirs (A, B, C, and D) must divide fairly an estate consisting of three items — a house, a cabin and a boat — using the method of sealed bids. The players' bids (in dollars) are:   In the initial allocation, player D Group of answer choices gets no items and gets $62,500 from the estate. gets the house and pays the estate $122,500. gets the cabin and gets $7,500 from the estate. gets the boat and and gets $55,500 from the estate. none of these
Jack and Jill are getting a divorce. Except for the house, they own very little of value so they agree to divide the house fairly using the method of sealed bids. Jack bids 140,000 and Jill bids 160,000. After all is said and done, the final outcome is Group of answer choices Jill gets the house and pays Jack $80,000. Jill gets the house and pays Jack $75,000. Jill gets the house and pays Jack $70,000. Jill gets the house and pays Jack $65,000. none of these
