• Identify and describe the effect of changing the tax rate ondisposable income and consumption, as well as the post-taxmultiplier. You should use the formulas discussed in the Readingpages and the text to describe the effects of the changing tax rateon disposable income, consumption, and the multiplier.
• Describe the likely changes to equilibrium output and pricelevels resulting from the change in the tax rates. Begin bydescribing the effects on aggregate supply and/or demand to fullydemonstrate the connection between the tax rate change andequilibrium.
• Describe the change in tax revenues for the government in the newequilibrium, in both the short and longer terms.

In the Keynesian model

aggregate demand determines real GDP per year.

the short-run aggregate supply curve determines real GDP.

unemployment cannot persist for long periods of time.

the aggregate demand curve determines the price level.

A terrible winter storm causes enormous problems in the

northeastern

part of the United States. This would cause

the short-run aggregate supply curve to shift to the left, but would have no effect on the long-run aggregate supply curve.

both the short-run and the long-run aggregate supply curves to shift to the left, but the long-run aggregate supply curve would shift more than the short-run curve.
