Consumer expectations about future income have become negative. How will this affect aggregate demand and equilibrium in the short run?
A.
Aggregate demand will fall, the equilibrium price level will fall, and the equilibrium level of GDP will fall.
B.
Aggregate demand will not change because consumer expectations are not a determinant of aggregate demand.
C.
Aggregate demand will fall, the equilibrium price level will rise, and the equilibrium level of GDP will fall.
D.
Aggregate demand will rise, the equilibrium price level will rise, and the equilibrium level of GDP will rise.
E.
Aggregate demand will rise, the equilibrium price level will fall, and the equilibrium level of GDP will rise.

- In what way might society gain if the Fed implements an anti-recessionary policy instead of simply permitting long-run adjustments to take place? The Fed's policy can shorten the adjustment period. The Fed's policy can reduce unemployment sooner. The Fed's policy can move the economy to long-run equilibrium sooner. All of the above.arrow_forwardConsider the Efficiency Wage story. Suppose we had several periods of 0 inflation. Then if we had a decrease in Aggregate Demand that caused a decrease in the Aggregate Price level, we would see which of the following in the short run? Select one of the following multiple choice answers and explain why you chose that answer. a. higher inflation and higher unemployment. b. lower inflation (which would be deflation given our premise) and higher unemployment. c. higher inflation and lower unemployment. d. lower inflation (which would be deflation given our premise) and lower unemployment. e. none of the above.arrow_forwardIf most people have rational expectations, how long will recession last ?

- 1. Consider an economy in long-run equilibrium at P1,Y*. Demand for money decreases. What will be the new long-run equilibrium? Group of answer choices Price will be higher than P1 and output will be equal to the natural output. Price will be higher than P1 and output will be smaller than the natural output. 2.What should be the optimal policy response to a negative demand shock according to a neoclassical economist? Group of answer choices The government should lower the interest rate to shift the AD to the right The central bank should enact an expansionary monetary policy to move back the AD to the initial position The government should lower wages to accommodate the adjustment of the AS curve None. The economy will self adjust and there is no need of intervention. Price will be higher than P1 and output will be higher than the natural output. Price will be lower than P1 and output will be equal to the natural output.arrow_forward(23) Assume that the economy begins in long-run equilibrium and that the federal reserve decides to use open market operations to sell bonds. In the short run, what happens to the price level? Group of answer choices (A) It goes down. (B) It goes up. (C) It stays the same.arrow_forwardAssume there is only one good in the economy, corn. The economy has enough labor, capital, and land to produce 2000 bushels of corn. V is constant. In 2020, money supply was $3,600 and the price of corn was $9/bushel. For 2021, the Fed increases MS by 10%. a) Compute the 2021 values of nominal GDP and P. Compute the inflation rate for 2020–2021. b) Suppose technological progress causes Y to increase to 2250 in 2020. Compute the 2020-2021 inflation rate. Please answer the entire questionarrow_forward
