- Which of the following statements concerning the aggregate demand and aggregate supply model is correct? a. The aggregate demand and aggregate supply model is nothing more than a large version of the model of market demand and supply. b. The price level and quantity of output adjust to bring aggregate demand and supply into balance. c. The aggregate supply curve shows the quantity of goods and services that households, firms, and the government want to buy at each price. d. The aggregate demand shows the quantity of goods and services that firms are willing to produce at a given price level.arrow_forwardIn an economy the aggregate demand is less than aggregate supply explain the changes that will take place in this economy.arrow_forwardWhat happens to the Aggregate Demand (AD) when there is an increase in Government purchases.arrow_forward
- Considering the formula for Aggregate Demand (Also known as the product market) answer the following question:Name two macroeconomic variables (from this formula) that decline when the economy goes into recession, and explain why this happens?Name one macroeconomic variable (from this formula) that rises during a recession, and explain why this happens?arrow_forwardSuppose an economy is experiencing recession. From the list below, select two (2) policy tools that the government can use to restore the economy back to a long-run macroeconomic equilibrium. Note: if you select more than two policy tools, 1 point will be taken for each additional choice. A. The government can decrease income taxes. B. The government can increase interest rates. C. The government can increase government spending. D. The government can send optimistic messages to boost expectations. E. The government can expand the resource base.arrow_forwardThe graphs illustrate an initial equilibrium for the economy. Suppose that the government increases taxes. Use the graphs to show the new positions of aggregate demand (AD), short-run aggregate supply (SRAS), and long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) in both the short run and the long run, as well as the short-run and long-run equilibriums resulting from this change. Then, indicate what happens to the price level and GDP in the short run and in the long run.

Economic fluctuations have been reduced by automatic stabilizers as the size of government has increased b. The main cause of economic fluctuations over this period has been the size of the agricultural sector and the effects of weather. c. Economic fluctuations have increased due to the speed with which money moves around the world in recent years d. Bank failures and financial crises were the main causes of economic fluctuations.arrow_forwardThe graphs illustrate an initial equilibrium for the economy. Suppose that the government increases spending. Use the graphs to show the new positions of aggregate demand (AD), short‑run aggregate supply (SRAS), and long‑run aggregate supply (LRAS) in both the short run and the long run, as well as the short‑run and long‑run equilibriums resulting from this change.
