- Consider the following dialogue about the crash of the housing market and the Great Recession of 2007–2009 between two students in a economics class. Fill in the blank ALEX: Hi, Becky. I’m intrigued to see how macroeconomics allows us to explain recent economic events such as the Great Recession that affected so many people. But there’s one thing I don’t understand. Was the collapse of the housing bubble the only cause of the recession, or were there other factors as well? BECKY: Hi, Alex. I agree that macroeconomic theory offers an entirely new perspective on how the economy works. To answer your question, the crash of the housing market was a major factor but not the only cause of the Great Recession. The professor mentioned that the __________ (options: financial, fiscal, government) system deteriorated as well, an event that deepened the economic downturn even further. ALEX: I see. So the bursting of the housing bubble caused the initial decline in aggregate demand.

- Question The following events shift either aggregated demand, aggregated supply, both or neither in the UK. Using a diagram, illustrate the effects of the events on the economy. In particular, explain the effect of each event on price level, real GDP, and equilibrium in the economy.

- Typed answerarrow_forwardIllustrate the following with supply and/or demand curves: In 2015, Chipotle suspended the sale of pork at one-third of its restaurants due to animal welfare concerns, and this had a significant impact on the amount of chicken entrees it sold to customers. 1.) Using the line drawing tool, illustrate the effect of this shock on the supply or demand curve. Label your line 'Shock'.. 2.) Using the point drawing tool, locate the new equilibrium point. Label your point 'E'. Carefully follow the instructions above and only draw the required objects. Price per unit ($) 5.00 4.50- 4.00- 3.50- 3.00- 2.50- 2.00- 1.50 1.00- 0.50- 0.00+ 0 Market for Chicken 10 20 30 40 50 60 50 60 70 80 Quantity So ·Do 90 100arrow_forwardFrom the graph, it is clear that the demand for gasoline is relatively (unit elastic, elastic, inelastic) and the supply for gasoline is relatively (unit elastic, elastic, inelastic). This is an example of a (positive or negative) supply shock and, referencing the graph below, is best represented by the shift (from curve 1 to curve 2 or from curve 2 to curve 1). If there's a price-gouging law in effect preventing gas stations from raising prices, then there will be an excess (supply, or demand) of _____ million gallons of gas. Suppose the government wants to alleviate the market imbalance. The best policy solution is to impose (import tariffs, production subsidies, import quotas, or purchasing limits) and the (cost or revenue) would be $______ million.arrow_forward
