Increased government spending causes high liquidity in market and higher disposable incomes. As results to fund additional soending government borrows more money from external commercial borrowing or large banks which creates higheremand for money pushing up interests rates higher.
However since government spending is higher people tend to consume more and subsequently the aggregate demand rises causing rise in price level in short run and hence even inflation and Real GDP rises.

An increase in government spending raises income: a. and the interest rate in the short run, but leaves both unchanged in the long run. b. in the short run, but leaves it unchanged in the long run, while lowering investment. c. in the short run, but leaves it unchanged in the long run, while lowering consumption. d. and the interest rate in both the short and long runs.
If at some specific interest rate the quantity of money demanded is less than the quantity of money supplied, people will desire to buy interest-earning assets causing the interest rate to decrease. Select one: True False In recent years, the Fed has conducted policy by setting a target for the federal funds rate. Select one: True False A decrease in taxes is an expansionary fiscal policy designed to increase aggregate demand and reduce unemployment. Select one: True False If aggregate...
Suppose there is a reduction in aggregate real money demand, that is a negative shift in the aggregate real money demand function. Trace the short and long run effects on the exchange rate, interest rate, and price level.
On the graphs below, show the impact of an increase in
government spending in the short and long run. Assume that the
central bank does not change their inflation target. Consider both
the impacts on real GDP and also on the long run real rate of
interest (r*).
