Use the model of small open economy to predict what would happen to the trade balance, and the real exchange rate in response to each of the following events. Use a graph to illustrate your answer and explain the graph. Please label the graph completely, including indicating all curves in the graph and label the axes. a) A fall in consumer confidence about the future induces consumers to spend less and save more. b) A tax reform increases the incentive for business to build new factories

A6 “Commodity-rich Australia is one of the very few countries to receive an economic growth upgrade by the International Monetary Fund, after the global outlook was slashed due to war in Ukraine and soaring inflation.” (Financial Review, 11 April 2022). “Australia’s economy has received a boost from the surge in the price of commodities such as gas, iron ore, coal and wheat”, said IMF division chief for Australia, Harald Finger. a. Assume that Australia’s economy is in its medium-run equilibrium (i.e. Y_t = Y_n and u_t = u_n) where Y_t represents the level of output in year t; u_t is the unemployment rate in year t; u_n is the natural rate of unemployment. Use the multiplier model diagram to illustrate the impact on Australia’s GDP from an increase in net export due to increase in commodity prices. Show the output gap in your graph.
18. Deriving net exports By definition, net exports from Japan are equal to exports from Japan minus imports into Japan. In a hypothetical two-country world, imports into Japan are equal to exports from the United States. So the value for net exports from Japan is equal to exports from Japan minus exports from the United States. Graphically, at each exchange rate, the value for net exports is the horizontal distance from U.S. exports to Japanese exports. Use the graph input tool to answer the following questions. You will not be graded on any changes you make to this graph. (Note: To avoid dealing with decimal places, this calculator reports the price of yen in terms of dollars per 1,000 yen. That is, the price on the vertical axis is the dollar price of a 1,000-yen note instead of a single yen. As you have already seen, a price of 8 dollars per 1,000 yen is the same as 125 yen per dollar. Once you enter a value in a white field, the graph and any corresponding amounts in each grey…

1.3 Using the gravity model calculate the value of trade between country I and J. You can assume: a=b=0.9, c=0.8 and A=0.5The GDP for country I is triple the GDP of country J. Country J GDP is equal to the product of the trading value of all developed countries listed in the given table. The distance between these countries is 28 km.
In a closed economy, saving and investment must be equal, but this is not the case in an open economy. In the following problem, you will explore how saving and investment are connected to the international flow of capital and goods in an economy. Before delving into the relationship between these various components of an economy, you will be asked to recall some relationships between aggregate variables that will be useful in your analysis. Recall the components that make up GDP. National income (Y) equals total expenditure on the economy's output of goods and services. Thus, where C = consumption, I = investment, G = government purchases, X = exports, M = imports, and NX = net exports: Y = Also, national saving is the income of the nation that is left after paying for Therefore, national saving (S) is defined as: Rearranging the previous equation and solving for Y yields Y = . Plugging this into the original equation showing the various components of GDP results in the following…
3. Exchange rates and U.S. exports: A graphical relationship The following graph shows exports from the United States to Japan. (Note: U.S. exports are measured in yen on this graph, which will enable you to see U.S. exports on the same graph as Japanese exports in a later problem.) [Please see the image] Referring to the graph, why does the line showing exports from the United States slope upward? 1. The lower the price of the yen in term of dollars, the lower the exports from the United States to Japan. 2. The higher the price of the yen in term of dollars, the higher the exports from Japan to the United States. 3. The higher the price of the yen in term of dollars, the lower the exports from the United States to Japan. 4. The lower the price of the yen in term of dollars, the higher the exports from the United States to Japan. Suppose that the exchange rate goes from $10 per 1,000 yen to $8 per 1,000 yen. On the previous graph, adjust the…
