Document Summary

Homework 9 (04/23/2019: what happens to the ad curve in each of the following scenarios, the u. s. exchange rate increases (appreciation of the u. s. dollar). In the long run, as lras becomes more inelastic, any changes in price will have little to no effect on as: a large untapped oil field has been discovered in the gulf of mexico near galveston island in. In the short run, a sudden increase in oil resources will shift the sras out , pushing the price down because producers can now reduce their input costs.

Determine the effect on either the aggregate demand curve (is it a rightward or a leftward shift?), the aggregate short-term supply curve, and the long-term aggregate supply curve (does the upward sloping portions of the SAS curve shift left or right, or does the vertical portion of the LAS curve shift to the right or to the left?). Also determine the effect on the price level, the real output level and employment/unemployment. Provide an explanation and express this graphically using the AS/AD macro model.

From 1980 to 1985, the U.S. dollar appreciated over 60%. An appreciation of a country's currency makes its goods more expensive relative to foreign goods. This reduces its exports and increases its imports, shifting its AD curve to the left.

1. Explain how the real balance effect works?

2. How will either the AD curve or SRAS curve shift as a result of each of the following changes:

A rise in the interest rate

An adverse supply shock

A rise in wealth

3. Explain what happens to U.S. net exports and U.S. aggregate demand as the dollar depreciates

4. Explain what happens to aggregate demand in each of the following cases: (a) The interest rate rises; (b) Wealth falls; (c) The dollar depreciates relative to foreign currencies; (d) Households expect lower prices in the future; (e) Business taxes rise.

5. Explain how expectations about future sales will affect investment.

6. Explain how each of the following can affect short-run aggregate supply: (a) An increase in wage rates; (b) A beneficial supply shock; (c) An increase in the productivity of labor; (d) A decrease in the price of a nonlabor resource (such as oil).

(a) An increase in SRAS that is greater than the increase in AD will lead to an increase in Real GDP and a fall in the price level.

(b) A decrease in AD that is greater than the increase in SRAS will lead to a fall in both the Real GDP and the price level.

A fall in the value of the dollar makes U.S. goods cheaper to foreigners and foreign goods more expensive to U.S. citizens. This shifts the U.S. aggregate demand curve to the right.
