Illustrate graphically what would happen in the short run and in the long run to the price level and Real GDP if individuals hold rational expectations, prices and wages are flexible, and individuals overestimate the rise in aggregate demand (bias upward).
Assume that the housing market is in equilibrium in year 1. In year 2, the mortgage rate that banks charge consumers decreases, but producers are not affected. Also in year 2, the cost of lumber used to build homes decreases. Which of the following is most likely to be the equilibrium change?
a
The equilibrium will be at point C before the change in expectations and point B after the change
b
The equilibrium will be at point A before the change in expectations and point B after the change
c
The equilibrium will be at point A before the change in expectations and point E after the change
d
The equilibrium will be at point E before the change in expectations and point A after the change

- During the transition from the short run to the long run, price level expectations will (remain the same, adjust upward, adjust downward), and the (short-run aggregate supply, aggregate demand) curve will shift to the (right, left). In the long run, as a result of the sharp increase in saving, the price level (remains the same, increases, decreases), the quantity of output (rises above, falls below, returns to) potential output, and the unemployment rate (rises above, falls below, returns to) the natural rate of unemployment.arrow_forwardIf a recessionary gap occurs in the short run, then in the long run a new equilibrium arises when input prices and expectations adjust downward, causing the short-run aggregate supply curve to shift downward and to the right and pushing equilibrium real GDP per year back to its long-run value. The Federal Reserve can eliminate a recessionary gap in the short run by undertaking a policy action that increases aggregate demand. Which of the following is one monetary policy action that could eliminate the recessionary gap in the short run? A. The Fed can increase the money supply through an open market purchase of Treasury securities. B. The Fed can lower taxes. C. The Fed can increase the money supply through an open market sale of Treasury securities. D. The Fed can decrease the money supply through an open market purchase of Treasury securities.arrow_forwardIf the economy has rational expectations and the model is sticky price model.

- Lucas's critique, based on rational expectations, argues that it is not enough to use econometric models to evaluate policy. In this regard, explain the comparison of the new classical macroeconomic model, the new Keynesian model and the traditional model on the impact of rational expectations on the aggregate economy!arrow_forwardA severe negative supply shock occurs when there is a significant reduction in the supply of key inputs, such as labor, raw materials, or energy. This can lead to a reduction in output, higher prices, and potentially stagflation (i.e., high inflation and low economic growth). To tackle the effects of a severe negative supply shock, governments and central banks may use various macroeconomic policies. Supply-side policies: Supply-side policies refer to measures aimed at increasing the productive capacity of the economy. In the case of a severe negative supply shock, the government may implement supply-side policies such as tax incentives or subsidies to encourage firms to invest in new technology or production methods. However, these policies may take time to have an impact and may not be sufficient to offset the immediate effects of the supply shock. explain this graphically please.arrow_forwardThe writing assignment requires applying your knowledge of how shifts in aggregate demand (AD) and aggregate supply (AS) affect the economy. Relevant knowledge is important because shifts in AD and AS affect all aspects of an economy, including output and unemployment. Using aggregate demand and aggregate supply, explain what happens in the short run if the Federal Reserve raises interest rates in the economy? Assume that the economy is at full employment before the interest rate increase. Be sure to detail what happens to: aggregate demand the price level the level of GDP and unemployment.arrow_forward
