1. When countries have severe debt problems: fiscal policy is an especially good idea. expansionary fiscal policy can reduce real growth. it makes no difference for fiscal policy. they can continue to borrow forever without any adverse consequences. 2. Increases in government spending financed through additional borrowing will typically: lead to higher taxes. lead to higher interest rates. stimulate both consumption and investment. provide more stimulus than when government spending is financed through higher taxes. 3. In a recession, automatic...

During a recession, economists traditionally focus on monetary and fiscal policies to bolster the economy. a. Use the aggregate demand - aggregate supply (AD-AS) model in Panel A to show the effect of a tax cut, in the form of a tax rebate, given to each taxpayer. If inflation is high during a recession, some economists advocate cuts on marginal tax rates, to help avoid additional inflation. b. Use the AD-AS model in Panel B to show the effect of...
Note: There is only one correct option. 1. To get the equilibrium level of income in the simple Keynesian model [1] we multiply the autonomous aggregate spending by the multiplier 12 we add all the autonomous aggregate spending component and subtract the multiplier [3] we divide the multiplier by aggregate demand [4] we multiply the interest rate by the multiplier 2. An increase in the tax rate in the Keynesian model will 1 shift the aggregate spending curve upwards in...
