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 increases, but producers are not affected. 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 A 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 C after the change
d
The equilibrium will be at point E before the change in expectations and point C after the change

- Compare and contrast the Keynesian approach to the management of the level of aggregate demand to the Monetarist (classical) macroeconomic models.arrow_forwardDuring 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_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_forward
