- 4) Suppose that initially the economy is at equilibrium at a level of output, which is lower than the potential output (and so a recessionary gap exists). Suppose that the government cuts taxes in response. But because of legislative delays, the tax cut is not put in place for 18 months. Using an AD-AS diagram and assuming that the government's objective is to stabilize output and inflation, show how this policy action might actually prove to be Explain. counter-productive.arrow_forwardChapter 11: Aggregate Demand I: Building the IS-LM Model Question: The Keynesian model suggests that should be preferred over .... since the ...... is larger than the ...***....

- Question 6 Demand management can be used by both fiscal and monetary policy. Suppose that fiscal policy makers decide to employ an expansionary policy in the aim to stimulate a weak economy. 6.1. Explain how fiscal policy can use both policy instruments at their disposal to stimulate an economy. 6.2. Based on your answer (6.1), illustrate, and explain by aid of the AD-AS model what the identified policy employment by Fiscal Authorities will have on the general price level and the level of real production and income in the economy. 6.3. Illustrate and explain by aid of the Phillips curve, how demand-pull inflation impacts the relationship between unemployment and the inflation rate.
