AD-AS vs the classical model and monetary policy. (a) How do the effects of a reduction of the money supply differ in the AD-AS and classical models? (b) How could we determine which of these two models best describes the actual economy? What should we be looking for in the data? (c) Why might the test you proposed in part b not be conclusive?

What, precisely, are the two shocks? (For the purpose of this question,let’s ignore the signifcant role played by the fnancial crisis itself.)
Now suppose that droughts in the Southeast and floods in the Midwest substan-tially reduce food production in the United States. Suppose you are an economistworking for the Federal Reserve.d. Use the aggregate demand–aggregate supply model to illustrate graphically the im-pact in the short run and the long run of this adverse supply shock. Be sure to label:i. the axes; ii. the curves; iii. the initial equilibrium values; iv. the direction the curvesshift; v. the short-run equilibrium values; and vi. the long-run equilibrium values.State in words what happens to prices and output in the short run and the long run.e. Use the aggregate demand–aggregate supply model to illustrate graphically your pol-icy recommendation to accommodate this adverse supply shock, assuming that yourtop priority is maintaining full employment in the economy.f. Would you recommend the same policy if your top priority was maintaining the pricestability? Why?
1) According to the Phillips Curve, as unemployment falls what happens to inflation? Why? 2) According to the Phillips Curve, as unemployment rises what happents to inflaiton? Why? 3) According to the Aggregate Supply/ Aggrgeate Demand model, if AD increases what happebs to Price Level GDP and Unemployment 4) Accroding to the AS/AD model, if AD decreases what happens to PL, GDP and unemployment? 5) According to the AS/AD model if AS decreases what happens to PL GDP and unemployment? 6) Based on your answer to #5 how would you show the decrease in AS on the Philips Curve?

Given the unpopularity of inflation, why don’t elected leaders always supportefforts to reduce inflation? Many economists believe that countries can reducethe cost of disinflation by letting their central banks make decisions aboutmonetary policy without interference from politicians. Why might this be so?
There is currently a political and academic controversy whether or not stimulus packagesagainst the Covid-induced economic recession will cause inflation. Professor OlivierBlanchard has warned that the stimulus package of the US-administration may lead toinflation in the US. However, he does not see inflation dangers emanating from stimulusprograms in the Eurozone. The Next Generation EU program is not only considered to be a stimulus program but also tobe a growth program, which by spending on infrastructure and climate-related investmentsis expected to lead to an increase in potential output.Analyze in an AD-AS model the impact of economic growth on actual GDP and the pricelevel. Also elaborate on the role that an additional demand stimulus could play.
Suppose in the real business cycle model that there is a simultaneous temporary increase inboth current government spending and in the current money supply. Draw diagrams for thelabour, goods and money market, and the production function. Determine the equilibriumeffects of these two shocks occurring simultaneously on employment, output, consumption,investment, money, real wages, the real interest rate, and the price level. Provide a detailedeconomic analysis explaining your results with the aid of the diagrams.

The economy begins in longcrun equilibrium. Thenone day, the president appoints a new chair of theFederal Reserve. 11\is new chainnan is well known forher view that inflation is not a major problcn1 for aneconomy.a. How would this news affect the price level thatpeople would expect to prevail?b. How would this change in the expected pricelevel affect the nonlinal wage that workers andfmn.s agree to in their new labor contracts?c. How would this change in the nonlinal wageaffect the profitability of producing goods andservia,s at any given price level?d. How docs this change in profitability affect theshort-run aggregate-supply curve?e. ff aggregate demand is held constant, how docsthis sllift in the aggregate-supply curve affect theprice level and the quantity of output produced?f. Do you think this Fed chainnan was a goodappointment?
Assume that an economy operates according to the sticky-wage model. The nominal wagewas set to make labor supply and labor demand equal when the expected price levelequaled 120 (as measured by the consumer price index).a. Use a graph of the labor market to illustrate what happens to the quantity oflabor employed if the actual price level over the time period when wages arestuck equals 110.b. Use a graph of the production function to illustrate how the quantity of outputproduced changes if the actual price level equals 110 when the expected pricelevel is 120.c. Given the unexpectedly low price level, will this economy be operating above,below, or at the natural rate?
The Covid-19 crisis and lockdown has been a supply-side shock to the South African economy. Inresponse, the government offered a R500bn stimulus package to help cushion the blow.Use the AD-AS model, in conjunction with the IS-LM-BP, to explain the supply and demand dynamicsof the shock and policy response. Where will equilibrium income and prices settle?Draw the graphs and explain the complete chain reaction.
