Explanation of Solution

Using the aggregate demand-supply model, the likely effects of the major tax cut when the economy is not operating at a capacity and the Fed accommodates by increasing the money supply is depicted in Figure 1.

Principles of Economics (12th Edition), Chapter 32, Problem 1.1P

In Figure 1, the horizontal axis depicts the aggregate output (GDP) and the vertical axis depicts the price level. The likely effects of the major tax cut when the economy is not operating at a capacity and the Fed accommodates by increasing the money supply is the increase in the level of real GDP which is likely to be inflationary in nature. The effect on the price level depends on the level of closeness to the capacity the economy is operating.

19. (20 points in total) Suppose that the market demand curve is p = 80 - 8Qd, where p is the price per unit and Qd is the number of units demanded per week, and the market supply curve is p = 5+7Qs, where Q5 is the quantity supplied per week. a. b. C. d. e. Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity for a competitive market in which there is no market failure. Draw a diagram that includes the demand and supply curves, the values of the vertical- axis intercepts, and the competitive equilibrium quantity and price. Label the curves, axes and areas. Calculate both the marginal willingness to pay and the total willingness to pay for the equilibrium quantity. Calculate both the marginal cost of the equilibrium quantity and variable cost of producing the equilibrium quantity. Calculate the total surplus. How is the value of total surplus related to your calculations in parts c and d?
