Assuming that the economy was initially at full employment and that the government now wants to change the composition of aggregate demand by increasing private investment while reducing consumption expenditure, but without changing the level of aggregate demand, what kind of mixed policy should be pursued? And represent this policy proposal on an IS- LM graph. You must use hand-drawn graphs to explain your analysis.

in a closed economy with no government, where aggregate demand is determinedby autonomous consumption, investment (which is independent of output), and themarginal propensity to consume.a) Given that autonomous consumption is 20, investment is also 20, and the marginalpropensity to consume is 0.6, write out an equation for aggregate demand (AD) in thiseconomy. b) Given this aggregate demand equation, and the equilibrium equation Y = AD, usealgebra to find the equilibrium level of Y. c) Draw a diagram with output (Y) on the x-axis and aggregate demand (AD) on the yaxis. Draw two lines on this diagram: (i) Y = AD, and (ii) the aggregate demandfunction from part (a). Label the intercept of the AD line, and the point where the twolines intersect, with numerical values.

Look at Figure 3. Assume this aggregate demand diagram represents an economy with government, where: a = exogenous consumption b = the marginal propensity to consume t = the tax rate |= investment G = government spending Y = income Figure 3 Aggregate AD, demand AD, 45° Income Select the option that describes a possible scenario shown by the shift from AD, to AD, in Figure 3. Select one: O Rise in tax rate and rise in government spending. O Rise in tax rate and fall in government spending. O Fall in tax rate and fall in government spending. O Fall in tax rate and rise in government spending. ( Previous page Next page > PHILIPS
Help The aggregate demand curve can be derived from the aggregate expenditures model as indicated by the fact that Multiple Choice an increase in the price level shifts the aggregate expenditures schedule upward and increases real GDP a decrease in the price level shifts the aggregote expenditures schedule downward and decreases real GDP a decreose in the price level shifts the aggregate expenditures scheduie upiward and decreases real GDP an increase in the price level shifts the eggregate expenditures schedule downverd and decreases real GDP

Pls help with below homwork. Explain and illustrate graphically the possible fiscal and monetary policy responses to a demand shock in the Keynesian model. What are the limitations of fiscal and monetary policy in the Keynesian model when a demand shock disturbs the economy?
Explain , using the AD - AS model , government can use fiscal policy as a tool to recover from the negative effects of this COVID - 19 pandemic. Should include the folllowing : -The description of the type of fiscal policy required - Explaination on how the implementation of this tool will work their way through the economy to achieve the desired effect
We found that for every $1 increase in G there is a multiplied impact on output with, in the most 1 basic model, a multiplier of A study by economists at the New York Fed conducted 1- MPC during the COVID-19 recession found that "as of the end of June 2020, a relatively small share of stimulus payments-ljust] 29 percent-was used for consumption." What is the G multiplier based on that estimated MPC and the formula from the basic model?
Elaborate on the difference between a binding and non-binding borrowing constraints and thetwo consumption functions that result.b. From the Intertemporal Choice Model, many theories (non-Keynesian theories ofConsumption) came into being. Using graphical and mathematical expressions, compareand contrast the following theories on consumption behaviours:i. Franco Modigliani: Life-Cycle Hypothesisii. Milton Friedman: Permanent-Income Hypothesisiii. Robert Hall: Random Walk Hypothesis
COURSE: MACROECONOMICS - IS-LM and/or MUNDELL FLEMING MODELS Refer to 2 different models (and/or conditions) under which an increase in the amount of money circulating in the economy has a NULL impact on GDP. Then, refer to 2 different models (and/or conditions) under which an increase in the amount of money circulating in the economy has a MAXIMUM impact on GDP. EXPLAIN very briefly the mechanism by which each model generates that NULL or MAXIMUM impact on GDP. Hint: 2 conditions under increase of M (money) and how impact null (zero) and maximum on GDP. Example, considering both fiscal or monetary policies or liquidity trap model. Please graph and explain on detail both cases.
