Under imperfect capital mobility the Balance of Payments (BP) curve is upward sloping in the IS LM model. Assume an increase in national income to explain why the BP curve is upward sloping.

12) In the IS-LM Model, assuming a downward sloping IS curve and an upward sloping LM curve; an increase in consumer wealth is going to A) cause a rightward shift of the IS curve. B) cause a rightward shift of the LM curve. C) cause a movement along the IS curve D) cause a leftward shift of the LM curve.
Why does the theory assume an upward sloping yield curve? If the yield curve is upward sloping and we expect it to steepen following an increase in long term rates and decrease in short term rates, would it be more beneficial to hold a bullet (focused) or a barbell bond portfolio? Explain
7. A downward-sloping investment function yields a falling IS curve, but a downward-sloping demand for real money balance curve yields a rising LM curve. Why?
What is the shape of the intermediate zone of the AD-AS curve? horizontal upward-sloping downward-sloping When does the GDP gap shrink? It shrinks as the government reduces the budget deficit through discretionary fiscal policy. It shrinks as the economy recovers from recession. It shrinks as the economy is contracting with government intervention. Since the change in GDP is a greater change than in the expenditure model the multiplier has a value ________. greater than one equal to one A rightwards...
In mainstream macroeconomics (neoclassical theory) the upward sloping supply curve rest on the assumption that factors of productions are “scarce”. How should the supply curve be drawn if we assume that factors of productions are not scarce (the stock of capital and labor are not fully utilized and employed)? Horizontal or V ertical?
Venus Island is a small open economy with perfect capital mobility. The goods market, exchange rate market and money market is in equilibrium when aggregate income/output is Y1, exchange rate is e1 and interest rate r1. Then the government implemented a contractionary fiscal policy. a. Use Mundell-Fleming model to show and explain, by referring to the events in the each of the markets, the predicted effects of the income tax increase. Assume that Venus Island uses a floating exchange rate....
1. What is the primary spatial or urban factor underlying an upward sloping labor supply curve in an open urban model? Draw a picture showing a labor market equilibrium. Assume that growth controls are put in place at the current equilibrium where those controls prevent the construction of new housing, but the current level of housing is sufficient to support the current population of the region. Explain and show the effect of these controls on the labor market picture. Hint:...
f. If P increases and M is constant, does the LM curve shit upward and to the left or downward and to the right? 2. IS-LM Model (20 points) Assume that an economy is characterized by the following equations T 600; G 500, 1-800-(50/3)r, M 1200, P M0.SY-50 (1) write the IS curve for the economy, expressing Y as a function of r· (3 points) (2). Write the LM curve for the economy, expressing r as a function of Y....

Financial markets and the LM relation. a) Explain why the money demand curve is downward sloping and what b) What types of policies can the central bank implement to reduce the interest c) Define the velocity of money. What effect does an increase in interest rate d) Illustrate graphically the effect of a drop in nominal income on the money e) Illustrate graphically the effect of a purchase of bonds by the Federal Reserve factor(s) cause shifts in the money...
