QUESTION 8 Refer to the table, which gives aggregate demand and supply schedules for a hypothetical economy. If the price level is 250 and producers supply $450 of real output: Amount of Real Output Demanded Price Level (Index Value) Amount of Real Output Supplied $500 $200 300 300 250 450 400 200 400 500 150 300 600 150 200 O a shortage of real output of $150 will occur, O a shortage of real output of $100 will occr. O a surplus of real output of $150 will occur. O a surplus of real output of $100 will occur. O neither a shortage nor a surplus of real output will occr.

What effects would each of the following have on aggregate demandor aggregate supply, other things equal? In each case explain the expectedeffects on the equilibrium price level and the level of real output, assumingthat the price level is flexible both upward and downward. · A reduction in interest rates at each price level.· A major increase in spending for health care by the Federalgovernment.· A 10 percent across-the-board reduction in personal income taxrates.· A sizable increase in labor productivity (with no change innominal wages).· An increase in exports that exceeds an increase in imports (notdue to tariffs).
The aggregate supply curve shows the relationship between the price level and the: O potential GDP in the economy. O total quantity of output that suppliers collectively produce. total quantity of output that buyers collectively plan to purchase. equilibrium GDP in the economy.
In 2018, a cold front in Barbados increased both the demand for water heaters andgasolines. The usage of gasoline was 581 tonnes, an increase from 499 tonnes in theprevious year. The Petroleum Company of Barbados advised Government officials thatdemand could outweigh supply and asked companies to increase the supply. They alsoasked major gasoline users, such as power plants, to reduce demand.i. Illustrate the effect of the cold front on the demand for gasoline using a demandcurve diagram over the two years. ii. Assuming the Petroleum Company of Barbados did not issue a directive for anincrease in supply and a decrease in demand, explain the problem that would existin the economy and how would this be corrected over time. iii. Illustrate the effect of major gasoline suppliers increasing supply as well as usersreducing their demand. iv. Discuss one factor EACH that you think influence demand and supply for waterheaters. Provide examples v. Is demand for gas is price elastic or price…
