IS-LM-FX Model and Stabilization Policy Suppose the fiscal authority of an economy implements expansionary policy. Specifically, the government increases its spending. Consider the graphical illustration of the IS-LM-FX model and the analysis of the policy change, and answer the following questions comparing the initial equilibrium before any change was implemented to the equilibrium that prevails after the expansionary fiscal policy is implemented. a) What happens to the consumer spending, why? explain. b) What happens to the investment spending, why? explain. What happens to the trade balance, why? explain. c) Explain crowding out that is happening as a result of the fiscal policy.

IS-LM-FX Model and Stabilization Policy Suppose the fiscal authority of an economy implements expansionary policy. Specifically,...
1. A. Suppose in an economy, there is an exogenous fall in investment spending due to the burst of a housing bubble. Answer the following questions using the IS-LM-FX model. Which schedule shifts in the IS-LM model on impact? ii. i. What happens to the equilibrium output, interest rate, and exchange rate after this change? B. Suppose that following the decline in investment spending, the central bank decides to pursue an output stabilization policy. Answer the following questions comparing the...
Question #4: IS-LM Model: Change in Fiscal Policy (a) Suppose Congress had announced that they were going to increase government spending to G = 400. Assume that (M/P)Sreturns to 1600. Now the set of equations are the following: C = 200 + 0.25YDI = 150 + 0.25Y –1000i T = 200 G = 400(M/P)S= 1600(M/P)d= 2Y –8000i Calculate the new level of equilibrium interest rate (i) and equilibrium output (Y).(b) Calculate the new levels of consumption (C) and investment (I)...
On a related note, it is also said that fiscal policy is weaker in an internationally open economy. Use an IS-LM graph connected to the NX=NFO graphs to help explain this. Specifically, show an increase in government purchases in the IS-LM graph, and follow the predicted interest rate change through the NX=NFO model. What is Congress trying to do to GDP with this fiscal policy move? Does the resulting change in NX help move GDP in the desired direction, or...
IS-LM-FX Model with Floating Exchange Rate [20 points 3 For each of the following situations use the IS-LM-FX model to illustrate, first, the effects of the temporary shock and then the policy response. (Note: Assume the central bank responds by using monetary policy to stabilize output (ie. to keep it at the initial equilibrium)) Label A the initial equilibrium, B the short-run equilibrium without policy response, and C the equilibrium after the response of the central bank. For each case,...
3.The Multiplier and returning the economy to Equilibrium a. List expansionary and contractionary tools of fiscal policy b. Assume C=$12,300 +.6 Dl and graph an economy in the AD AS model with Potential Output of $600 and Real GDP at $450. Identify typical levels of unemployment and inventory change in this gap. c. Calculate the change in unemployment insurance needed to close the gap. Show all work d. Assume government spending changes by $50, what is the impact on AD?
The AD-AS model can be used to analyze the effects of fiscal policy, including changes in government spending or taxes. Suppose Congress votes to decrease corporate income tax rates. Use the AD/AS model to analyze the likely impact of the tax cuts on the macroeconomy. Show graphically and explain your reasoning. What exactly causes AD and/or AS to shift? What happens to GDP and the aggregate price level? Why?
NEED HELP WITH QUESTIONS E TO I Consider a hypothetical economy characterized by the following equations(all variables as defined in class). Consumption: C = 700 + 0.95Y Investment: I=500− 30i Government spending: G=50 Money demand: L(i,Y )=0.75Y − 30i Money supply: Ms/P=400 (a) What is the equation of the IS curve? (b) What is the equation for the LM curve? (c) Solve for the equilibrium values of income (Y) and interest rates (i). (d) Assume that the government engages in...
1. Expain the effect of a discretionary cut in taxes of $40 billion on the economy when the economy’s marginal propensity to consume is .75. How does this discretionary fiscal policy differ from a discretionary increase in government spending of $40 billion? 2.Explain what is meant by a built-in stabilizer and give two examples. 3.Differentiate between discretionary fiscal policy and nondiscretionary or built-in stabilization policy. 4.What does the “standardized budget” measure and of what significance is this concept? 5.What are...
1.b. Fiscal policy is said to suffer from ‘crowding out’. Explain what this means and why it is a problem. Should the Federal budget always be balanced? 2. a. Describe the main goals of monetary policy and explain how a change in interest rates can affect the different categories of aggregate demand. (5 marks) b. You are the Reserve Bank Governor and are reviewing the following economic data: Real GDP growth rate: 4.2% Unemployment rate: 4.6% Inflation rate: 3.8% Determine...
