Suppose policymakers decide to reduce the budget deficit by cutting government spending. Use the Keynesian Cross model to illustrate graphically the impact of a reduction in government purchases on the equilibrium level of income. Be sure to label: (a) the axes, (b) the curves, (c) the initial equilibrium values, (d) the direction the curve shifts, and (e) the final equilibrium values. Explain in words what happens to equilibrium income as a result of the cut in government spending.

Inflation and Purchasing Power Theory

In economic terms, Inflation refers to the increase in the costs of various commodities which are used in daily lifestyle like food, clothes, transport, etc. over a specific time. It may lead to a fall in the purchasing power of the people and also affects the exchange rate of the currency because of the price increase. As the purchasing power falls the unit of the currency in the economy falls. When the prices of the commodities are decreased, then the purchasing power of the consumers will rise, then it will lead to deflation and changes the currency of the base economy to that of the foreign economy which will lead to change in exchange rates.
