2. What is the crowding- out effect? How does it modify the implications of the basic Keynesian model with regard to fiscal policy? How does the new classical theory of fiscal policy differ from the crowding-out model?

Fiscal Policy: Recessionary vs Expansionary Policy Complete the following exercises. 1. Describe a policy measure the government can use to close a recessionary gap. 2. Illustrate your response to question 1 in a graph. 3. Describe a policy measure the government can use to close an inflationary gap. 4. Please Illustrate Graphically in response to question (question 3: Describe a policy measure the government can use to close an inflationary gap.)

On the following graph, AD1 represents the initial aggregate demand curve in a hypothetical economy, and AS represents the initial aggregate supply curve. The economy's full-employment output is $12 billion. On the following graph, use the grey point (star symbol) to mark the equilibrium. (Note: You will not be graded on any adjustments made to the graph.)

The economy is experiencing negative GDP growth and high unemployment.  Which fiscal policy action should the government implement in an attempt to fix this problem?     A.) increase spending B.) raise taxes C.) increase the reserve requirement D.) decrease interest rates

The graph below depicts an economy where a decline in aggregate demand has caused a recession. Assume the government decides to conduct fiscal policy by increasing government purchases to reduce the burden of this recession.

How much does aggregate demand need to change to restore the economy to its long-run equilibrium? $ billion b. If the MPC is 0.6, how much does government purchases need to change to shift aggregate demand by the amount you found in part a? EA billion Suppose instead that the MPC is 0.75. c. How much does aggregate demand and government purchases need to change to restore the economy to its long-run equilibrium? Aggregate demand needs to change by $ billion and government purchases need to change by $ billion.

please answer the following question: 1.The fact that it takes time for government officials to recognize an economic problem in is one reason for time lags in fiscal policy making. a)true  b)false

Principles List 6: Principle 1. Explain what it means If The Marginal Propensity to Consume = 2/3 And draw a Consumption Curve with The Marginal Propensity to Consume = 2/3 principle 2. Define equilibrium in the Aggregate Expenditures Model or the Keynesian Model and illustrate the Equilibrium graphically Principle 3. Define the expenditures Multiplier and illustrate it graphically Principle 4. Distinguish between Fiscal Policy solution for a recession and Monetary Policy for a recession

a) What are the three fiscal policy tools and how would each be used to counter a contractionary gap?   b) True or False and explain: Fiscal Policy is effective at reducing the duration of an economic contraction.   c) True or False and explain: Households always react to tax changes in a predictable manner.

"Assuming a closed economy, if the government decides to increase its spending by $100 million without increasing taxes, explain how this fiscal policy might affect the national income, interest rates, and investment levels according to the Keynesian economic model. Additionally, discuss the potential crowding-out effect that might occur as a result of this increased government spending."

QUESTION 5 05. The "crowding-out secondary effect expansionary macroeconomic policy     a) For fiscal policy it is about government borrowing to finance the government budget deficit, associated with expansionary fiscal policy. This increased government borrowing tends to increase the market rate of interest, which dampens investment spending.     b) For monetary policy it is about the expansion of the economy increasing the demand for money to service the increased volume of transactions. This tends to increase the market rate of interest, which dampens investment spending.     c) Decreases the autonomous spending multiplier and thus the impact of expansionary policy.     d) All of the above.
