A).
Here we have given the “Real GDP” for different level of “Inputs”. The productivity is measured by the ratio of “aggregate output” to “inputs” used. So, the following table shows the productivity for different level of inputs.
B).
The per-unit cost of production is the “total cost” per unit of output. The price input is “$2”, the following table shows the “total cost” and the per unit cost.
C).
As the input price increases by “$1” increase the cost of production, => the SRAS will shifts upward. So, the equilibrium price increases and the output decreases.
Consider the above fig where the initial equilibrium is “E1” the intersection of “AS1” and “AD”. Now, as the input cost increases that shits the SRAS to “AS2”, => the new equilibrium is “E2” the intersection of “AS2” and “AD”. So, the equilibrium price increases and the output decreases.
D).
Let’s assume that the productivity increases by “100%” then the per unit cost of production also decrease the following table shows the new per unit cost.
So, the per unit cost decreases to “0.375”. Now, as the per unit cost decreases the AS supply curve shift to the right side to AS2. So, the new equilibrium is “E2” the intersection of “AS2” and “AD”, => the equilibrium price decreases and the output increases.

Suppose that an economy produces 2,400 units of output, employing 60 units of input with a price of $30 per unit. The per-unit cost of production is $0.25. $0.50 $0.75 $2.00 Question 7 1 pts An increase in productivity will increase aggregate demand, increase aggregate supply. increase aggregate supply and aggregate demand. o decrease aggregate supply and aggregate demand.

Suppose the current level of real GDP for an economy is below its potential level of RGDP. Starting with this situation, and in the absence of any government action, what should next happen in the AD-AS model? Group of answer choices A. A decrease in the Long-Run Aggregate Supply B. An increase in Aggregate Demand C. A decrease in Aggregate Demand D. An increase in the Short-Run Aggregate Supply E. An increase in the Long-Run Aggregate Supply F. A decrease...
1. Suppose that the aggregate demand and supply schedules for a hypothetical economy are as shown below: a. Use these sets of data to graph the aggregate demand and aggregate supply curves. What is the equilibrium price level and the equilibrium level of real output in this hypothetical economy? Is the equilibrium real output also necessarily the full-employment real output? Explain. b. Why will a price level of 150 not be an equilibrium price level in this economy? Why not 250? c. Suppose...

Then use the orange points (square symbol) to plot the...
Which of the following statements best describes how economic growth is represented i n the AD/AS diagram? In the AD/AS diagram, long-run economic growth due to productivity increases over time will be represented by a gradual shift to the right of aggregate supply. In the AD/AS diagram, short-run economic growth due to productivity increases over time will be represented by a dramatic shift to the right of aggregate supply. In the AD/AS diagram, short-run economic growth due to productivity increases...
Suppose the Fed doubles the growth rate of the quantity of money in the economy. In the long run, the increase in money growth will change which of the following? Check all that apply. The size of the labor force The inflation rate The price level The level of technological knowledge Suppose the economy produces real GDP of $30 billion when unemployment is at its natural rate. Use the purple points (diamond symbol) to plot the economy's long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) curve on the graph. Suppose the...
The graph below depicts an economy where an increase in aggregate demand has caused inflation. The economy's current level of real GDP (Y) is above its long-run equilibrium. This is illustrated by the long-run aggregate supply curve (LRAS) and a price level 2) above the equilibrium value of Pe Fiscal Policy Price Level Real GDP Which of the following is an example of an automatic stabilizer that would help this economy move toward full employment again A reduced need for...
Chapter 14. Question 2. For example, an increase in the money supply, a (real or nominal?) variable, will cause the price level, a (nominal or real?) variable, to increase but will have no long-run effect on the quantity of goods and services the economy can produce, a (nominal or real?) variable. The separation of real variables and nominal variables is known as (the classical dichotomy, price neutrality, or the quantity theory?). The horizontal axis of the model of aggregate demand...
