2. Suppose that the table below shows an economy's relationship
between real output and the inputs needed to produce that output:
LO4
Input
Quantity
Real
GDP
150.0
$400
112.5
300
75.0
200
a. What is productivity in this economy?
b. What is the per-unit cost of production if the price of each input
unit is $2?
c. Assume that the input price increases from $2 to $3 with no
accompanying change in productivity. What is the new per-unit cost
of production? In what direction would the $1 increase in input price
push the economy's aggregate supply curve? What effect would this
shift of aggregate supply have on the price level and the level of real
output?
d. Suppose that the increase in input price does not occur but,
instead, that productivity increases by 100 percent. What would be
the new per-unit cost of production? What effect would this change
in per-unit production cost have on the economy's aggregate supply
curve? What effect would this shift of aggregate supply have on the
price…
ADVANCED ANALYSIS Assume that demand for a commodity is represented by the equation
P = 100-3Qd-
Supply is represented by the equation
P= -10 + 3Q,,
where Qd and Qs are quantity demanded and quantity supplied, respectively, and Pis price.
Instructions: Round your answer for price to 2 decimal places and enter your answer for quantity as a whole number.
Using the equilibrium condition Qs Qd solve the equations to determine equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity.
Equilibrium price = $ 50
Equilibrium quantity = 20

in equilibrium on a positively sloping short-run aggregate supply curve?
