2. An economy is initially described by the following equations:
C= 600 + 0.75(Y - T)
I= 1,200 – 50i
M/P = Y – 200i
G= 2000
%3D
T= 2000
M = 4,000
P = 2
a. Derive and graph the IS curve and the LM curve. Calculate the equilibrium interest rate
and level of income. Label that point A on your graph.
b. Suppose that a newly elected president cuts taxes by 20 percent. Assuming the money
supply is held constant, what are the new equilibrium interest rate and level of income?
What is the tax multiplier?

c. Now assume that the central bank adjusts the money supply to hold the interest rate
constant.
d. What is the new level of income? What must the new money supply be? What is the
tax multiplier?
e. Now assume that the central bank adjusts the money supply to hold the level of income
constant. What is the new equilibrium interest rate? What must the money supply be?
