Imports and short-run output: In addition to depending on the exchange rate (and therefore on the interest rate), imports may depend on short-run output: when the economy is booming, consumers tend to demand more foreign goods. To incorporate this result into our short-run model, suppose the new net exports equation is Derive the IS curve with this new equation, and explain how it differs from the standard IS curve in the short-run model.
In your macroeconomic lectures you are often told that exchange rates and interest rates are important for macroeconomic decision-making.
How does an increase in Japan’s government budget deficit affect each of the following?
The real interest rate in the short run in Japan. Explain.
Private domestic investment in plant and equipment in Japan.
Draw a correctly labeled graph of the foreign exchange market for the euro, and show the effect of the change in the real interest rate in Japan from part (a)(i) on each of the following.
Supply of euros. Explain.
Yen price of the euro
To reverse the change in the yen price of the euro identified in part (b) (ii), should the European Central Bank buy or sell euros in the foreign exchang market? Explain.
Consider the following equation:
NX(ɛ) = S - I(r*)
This equation is used to draw the diagram illustrating the foreign exchange market, where there is
a negative relationship between NX and ɛ; and S, - I(r*) is perfectly inelastic.
Here NX is net exports, ɛ is the exchange rate, S represents the level of savings in the economy, I
represent the level of investment in the economy, and r is the interest rate.
a. Use a carefully labeled diagram to illustrate the effect of a contractionary fiscal policy at

A nominal exchange rate specifies how many units of one country's currency are needed to buy one unit of another country's currency. Suppose the following table presents nominal exchange rate data for March 16, 2019, in terms of U.S. dollars per unit of foreign currency. Use the information in the table to answer the questions that follow. Suppose that on March 16, 2019, an ornamental bookcase handmade in Germany is priced at EUR 830. The approximate U.S. dollar price of the bookcase would be ______ . If the nominal exchange rate for the U.S. dollar–Japanese yen rises from $0.008538 to $0.0093918 per Japanese yen, the Japanese yen ______ (increase/decrease) in value, or_______ (appreciate/depreciate) , relative to the U.S. dollar.arrow_forward
- As a result of entering the world economy, Neverland experiences economic boom and its GDP goes up to y=13250: The functions that describe consumption and investment are still the same: Cd(,) = 5000 – 1000r+0.25Y and 1d (r) = 500 – 1800r +0.2Y. The government wants to take advantage of growth and increases its expenditures to: G- 190o. What is Neverland's current account balance? Note: Type in your answer approximated to two decimal points, i.e., your answer must be of the form "999.99". I will not be able to fix correct answers that were entered incorrectly, such as "999.999" or "999,99" or "999".

- The following question relates only to the equilibrium in the goods market IN A CLOSED ECONOMY and asks you to carry out a graphical analysis using both the Keynesian cross diagram together with the IS-MP diagram. >>>) Consider an open economy with a floating exchange rate regime. After a terrorist attack in the country, consumer confidence and business confidence have taken a serious hit, negatively impacting consumption and investment in the economy. To prevent the economy from suffering too badly, the central bank wants to intervene in such a way as to keep output at the same level as before the terrorist attacks. Within the IS-MP framework, explain and illustrate graphically the impact of the drop in consumer and business confidence and subsequent central bank intervention on equilibrium output, the real interest rate, net cash outflow, the trade balance and the country’s real exchange rate. Is it possible for you to determine the overall impact on consumption and…arrow_forwardRUBLES PER KRONE RUBLES PER KRONE 3. Changes in the foreign exchange market The following questions focus on the exchange rate between the Russian ruble and the Danish krone. Assume the exchange rate is flexible. The exchange rate is defined as the number of rubles you must pay for one krone. Suppose a recession in Russia causes Russian incomes to decrease, while incomes in Denmark remain the same. Shift the appropriate curve or curves on the following graph to illustrate how this affects the market for Danish kroner if all other things remain equal. Note: Select and drap one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther.
