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.

(c) An increase in SRAS that is less than the increase in AD will lead to an increase in both the

Part 1

Evaluate whether each of the following statements is true or false. Explain your answer and provide a supporting rationale.

a.The short-run aggregate supply (SAS) curve slopes upward because households spend more as their incomes increase.

b.The long-run aggregate supply curve can never shift.

c.Either a decrease in the nominal money supply by the Federal Reserve, all else held constant or an increase in the price level, all else held constant, will shift the aggregate demand (AD) curve to the left.

d.The Keynesian portion of the short-run aggregate supply (SAS) curve would be relevant during a recessionary situation.

e.Stagflation occurs when the aggregate demand (AD) curve shifts out on the upward sloping portion of the short-run aggregate supply (SAS) curve.

Part 2

Evaluate whether each of the following statements is true or false. Explain your answer and provide a supporting rationale, using graphs to support your answer. You can create graphs by hand and take pictures and upload them with your answers, or you may use Word or Excel, and upload the file created by these software packages.

a.If the real money demand is greater than the real money supply, interest rates must rise to reach equilibrium in the money market as institutions sell bonds to obtain more money.

b.The federal government's control of the money supply, which influences interest rates, is the primary tool that policymakers use to impact the macroeconomy.

c.A decrease in the reserve requirement decreases the money supply because banks have fewer reserves.

d.The real money demand curve shows how households and businesses change their spending in response to changes in the interest rate.

e.Both an increase in the nominal money supply by the Federal Reserve and an increase in the price level will cause the real money supply curve to shift to the right.

1.

In the money market, money supply is determined by the central bank, such as the Fed in the U.S. Because of this, money supply curve is usually vertical in the short run, while the money demand curve is downward sloping. The quantity demanded of money has an inverse relationship with the interest rate, but a direct relationship with both the price level and real GDP. Therefore, when the general price level increases, what will most likely happen?

A. The money demand curve will shift to the right.

B. The money demand curve will shift to the left.

C. Both the interest rate and investment will rise.

D. Only A and C.

E. Only B and C.

3.

Suppose workers become pessimistic about their future employment, which causes them to save more and spend less. If the economy is in the Keynesian range of the aggregate supply curve, then

A. real GDP will fall and the price level will rise.

B. real GDP will rise and the price level will fall.

C. only the real GDP will fall.

D. only the price level will fall.

E. both real GDP and the price level will fall.

5.

Which of the following will shift the aggregate demand curve to the left?

A. The federal government increases spending for highways and bridges.

B. Consumers expect an economic downturn.

C. The federal government increases income taxes.

D. Only A and C.

E. Only B and C.

6.

Which of the following will shift the aggregate supply curve to the left?

C. An improvement in technology raises labor productivity.

D. Only A and C.

E. Only B and C

8.

There are also two kinds of deflation, the demand-pull deflation and cost-push deflation. Then which of the following is most likely to be true?

A. An increase in AD will cause the demand-pull deflation.

B. An increase in AS (or SRAS) will cause a cost-push deflation.

C. Economists worry about the demand-pull deflation more than the cost-push deflation.

D. Only A and C.

E. Only B and C.

9.

The short-run aggregate supply curve (SRAS) can be written as follows: Y = Yf + b (p - pe), where Y = real GDP, Yf = full-employment real GDP, p = price level, pe = expected price level, and b is a positive coefficient. The SRAS can be re-written as p = pe - (1/b)(Yf) + (1/b)(Y). Then which of the following is true?

A. An increase in pe will cause a rightward shift of the SRAS curve.

B. An increase in pe will cause a leftward shift of the SRAS curve.

C. An increase in Yf will cause a leftward shift of the SRAS curve.

D. Only A and C.

E. Only B and C.
