The graph shows an economy that is above full employment. To restore full employment, the government decreases government expenditure by $0.5 trillion. Draw a curve to show the effect of the decrease if this is the only change in spending plans. Label the curve AD0-ΔE The decrease in government expenditure sets off a multiplier process. Draw a curve that shows the multiplier effect that returns the economy to full employment. Label it AD Draw a point at the full-employment equilibrium...
EXERCISE1: ADAD, AD, Refer to the diagram, in which Of is the full- employment output. Price Level 1. A contractionary fiscal policy would be most appropriate if the economy's present aggregate demand curve were at Real GDP 2. An expansionary fiscal policy would be most appropriate if the economy's present aggregate demand curve were at 3. If the economy's present aggregate demand curve is , government should undertake neither an expansionary nor a contractionary fiscal policy. 4. At what AD...

The graph shows an economy below full employment. To restore full employment, the government increases government expenditure by $0.5 trillion. Draw a curve to show the effect of the increase if it is the only change in spending plans. Label the curve ADo AE Price level (GDP price index, 2009-100) Potential GDP The increase in government expenditure sets off a multiplier process. Draw a curve that shows the multiplier effect that returns the economy to full employment. Label it AD,...
1. Suppose the federal government observes a decrease in net exports. Examine this event in terms of the aggregate demand and aggregate supply model. a. The decrease in net exports will cause (Click to select) [a decrease in short-run aggregate supply / an increase in short-run aggregate supply / an increase in aggregate demand / a decrease in aggregate demand]. b. This will lead to (Click to select) [a decrease / an increase] in the price level and (Click to select)...
#6 Consider an economy that is operating at the full-employment level of real GDP with MPC=0.7 MPC=0.7 . The short-run effect on equilibrium real GDP of a $50 billion increase in government spending ( G G ), balanced by a $50 billion increase in taxes, is...…………. abillion (Increase or Decrease) in real GDP. #7 Suppose that the MPC in a country is 0.9. Complete the following table by calculating the change in GDP predicted by the multiplier process given each...
FISCAL POLICY IN-CLASS WORKSHEET 2 This question explores the role of expansionary and contractionary fiscal policy in the Aggregate Demand and Aggregate Supply model. You will use schedules for an aggregate demand line and an aggregate supply line to identify the equilibrium price level and real GDP in a macroeconomy. Additionally, you will compare the short-run equilibrium level of real GDP to the full employment level of real GDP to identify desirable fiscal policies. Below, you are provided the schedules...
