Suppose that a consulting firm has generated the following information about the economy of Growville:
(i) The current employment in export industries is 50,000;
(ii) The current total employment in the city is 150,000;
(iii) Export employment is expected to grow by 10,000 jobs.
a. Is there enough information to accurately predict the effect of the increase in export employment on total employment?
b. If you have enough information, predict the employment effect and illustrate your answer with a graph.
c. If there is insufficient information, proceed with the analysis as far as you can and list the additional information you need to complete the analysis. Illustrate your answer with a graph.

John Maynard Keynes claimed that the
equilibrium level of employment, for the
economy as a whole, depended on the
effective demand for output. Explain what
Keynes meant by the effective demand for
output. Is this equilibrium level of
employment always consistent with full
employment? What would happen if wages
fell due to unemployment? Elaborate.

Evaluate the following statement. The AD–AS model indicates that the decrease in housing prices increased wealth, stimulated aggregate demand, and generated an economic boom.

Graphically illustrate and explain what is the effect of an increase in unemployment benefits on the equilibrium levels of real wage and unemployment. (Hint: In your graph, put the real wage on the vertical axis, and the level of unemployment on the horizontal axis. Use wage-setting relation and price-setting relation to analyze the question.)
