Assume that the US economy is initially at equilibrium with the intersection of AD curve, LRAS curve and SRAS curve.
a). Initially the economy is at the equilibrium where the aggregate demand , short run aggregate supply and the long run aggregate supply were equal. This is the point 'E', so when there is a stock market boom people's income will increase in the country and that will increase the consumption and investment activities. Since the consumption and the investment are the components of the aggregate demand , the aggregate demand will increase. This is shown by the rightward shift of the aggregate demand curve , the increase in the aggregate demand would increase both the price level and the real GDP. The price level would increase P to P1 and the real GDP would increase from Y to Y1.
b). So here the country is having an inflationary gap, the inflationary gap occurs when the current level real GDP outweighs the full employment level of GDP. For bringing back the economy to a full employment level, the Fed should introduce a contractionary monetary policy, that is either a selling of government owned securities, increasing the discount rate or reserve ratio. When the Fed introduces the contractionary monetary policy the money supply would decrease in the economy and that would decrease the aggregate demand and the aggregate demand curve would fall back and the economy will be at the full employment level. This is shown by the below graph.

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?
Construct the AD, SRAS, and LRAS curves for an economy experiencing (a) full employment, (b) an economic boom, and (c) a recession. What will happen in each case if it's only temporary? What will happen in each case if it's permanent?
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...
Using aggregate demand, SRAS and LRAS, and assuming the economy is initially at long run equilibrium, explain the process by which each of the following economic events will move the economy from one long-run macroeconomic equilibrium to another with the aid of a well labeled diagram (a) A major trading partner experienced economic growth (b) Investors become optimistic about the economy (c) There is a decrease in taxes
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.
Based on the graphical representations below illustrating AD, SRAS, and LRAS curves, explain the dynamics and shifts associated for an economy experiencing: (a) full employment (b) an economic boom (c) a recession
supply curve to shift leftward to SRAS, as shown in the graph at right. The economy is currently in short-run equilibrium at point E, and the reduction in supply is expected to be permanent. LRAS SRAS SRAS 1.) Using the line drawing and/or 3-point curved line drawing tool, show the adjustment to long-run equilibrium in this situation. Properly label your new curve(s). 2.) Using the point drawing tool, identify the new long-run equilibrium point and label the point 'E2 Carefully...
5. Construct the full model with an LRAS, a SRAS, and an AD curve. Discuss the characteristics of the economy at full equilibrium. 6. Define discretionary fiscal policy and discuss the problems of lags and crowding out.

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,...
