Using the aggregate demand (AD), the short-run aggregate supply (SRAS), and the long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) curves, briefly explain how an open market purchase will affect the equilibrium price level (P) and real output (Y) in the short run. Assume the economy is initially in a recession?
Ans
Onitial equilbrium is at A where ADo meets SRAS. Clearly economy produces less than potential output which means there is recession.
Now through open market operations money supply rises in economy which increases purchasing power of people. As a result Aggregate supply shifts to AD1. New equilbrium is at B where output has risen to natural level and prices have also risen
Using the aggregate demand (AD), the short-run aggregate supply (SRAS), and the long-run aggregate supply (LRAS)...
Question 1: AD-SRAS-LRAS Model Using aggregate demand (AD), short-run aggregate supply (SRAS) and long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) curves, graphically illustrate the effect of an increase in the money supply on output and prices in the short and long run. Assume that the economy is initially in long run equilibrium at the potential output level and prices are fixed in the short-run. In your graph, label "A" for the initial equilibrium, "B' for the short-run equilibrium, and "C" for the long-run equilibrium.
The following figure depicts the aggregate demand (AD), the short-run aggregate supply (SRAS), and the long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) curves for an economy. The economy is initially at long-run equilibrium, at point A. Suppose that there is an increase in the amount of investment in the economy due to a reduction in the real interest rate. This increase in investment shifts the AD curve to the right, depicted below in the movement of the economy from point A to point...

Which of the graphs below illustrates the shifts in this model given this situation? Price level Price level (P) (P) URAS LRAS, LRAS SRAS SRAS SRAS...
Describe the short-run aggregate supply (SRAS) curve and the long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) curve. A. the SRAS curve is horizontal and the LRAS curve is upward sloping B. the SRAS curve is horizontal and the LRAS curve is vertical C. the SRAS curve is vertical and the LRAS curve is horizontal D. the SRAS curve is vertical and the LRAS curve is upward sloping Why is the short-run aggregate supply curve horizontal? A. because output is fixed in the short...
What influences the LRAS (long run aggregate supply) and SRAS (short run aggregate supply)? What are the three theories that explain the upward slope of the SRAS? How do both monetary and fiscal policy affect the AD?
()-run equilibrium occurs at the intersection of the aggregate demand curve, AD, and the short-run aggregate supply curve, SRAS.() ▼ Long Short -run equilibrium occurs at the intersection of AD and the long-run aggregate supply curve, LRAS. Any unanticipated shifts in aggregate demand or supply are called aggregate demand or aggregate supply() ▼ shocks externalities . When aggregate demand decreases while aggregate supply is stable,() ▼ a recessionary an inflationary gap can occur, defined as the difference between how much...
The figure below depicts the aggregate demand curve (AD), the short-run aggregate supply curve (SRAS), and the long-run aggregate supply curve (LRAS) for the United States. The economy is initially at long-run equilibrium, at point A.One of the most contentious issues among economists involves the economy’s adjustment to long-run equilibrium. Some economists believe that adjustment can and should occur naturally. This group, the classical economists, stress the importance of aggregate supply. Others see the return to long-run equilibrium as an...
1. Aggregate demand curve of an economy is given by AD = 51 - 0.2P, the long-run aggregate supply, LRAS, is 30 and the short-run aggregate supply is given by SRAS = 0.3 P (all output measures are in US$ billions and the price level is given as an index number). What could be the unemployment rate if the natural rate of unemployment is 4%? 2. Aggregate demand curve of an economy is given by AD = 51 - 0.2P,...

9. Economic fluctuations II The following graph shows the short-run aggregate supply curve (AS), the aggregate demand curve (AD), and the long-run aggregate supply curve (LRAS) for a hypothetical economy. Initially, the expected price level is equal to the actual price level, and the economy is in long-run equilibrium at its natural level of output, $120 billion. Suppose a bout of severe weather drives up agricultural costs, increases the costs of transporting goods and services, and increases the costs of producing goods...
