- Suppose the economy of the hypothetical country “X” is currently in equilibrium at point A on thegraph. There were two major shocks to the economy in 2020.First shock was related to oil prices; the other was related to consumer confidence about futurebusiness conditions. Oil Shock: The economy X faced a rise in the average price of oil along with the rise of world price ofoil.E) Would an increase in oil prices cause a demand shock or a supply shock? Redraw the diagram toillustrate the effect of this shock by shifting the appropriate curve. What happens to theAggregate output and price level after the shock? (3)F) If policymakers wish to prevent the equilibrium output from changing in response to the oilprice increase, should they use contractionary or expansionary fiscal policy? (Redraw the graphfrom part E and show the change) (4)G) Even if the economy moves back to original Aggregate output, will there be any drawback? (1)Consumer Confidence Index: The Consumer Confidence Index…Using the AD-AS model, which of the following statement better describe what has happened with the pandemic? a. The government discouraged people from engaging in economic activities, which shifted the AD curve left; meanwhile, the government forced the closure of most of the firms in the economy, which shifted the short-run AS curve left, leading to much lower production in the overall economy. b. The government discouraged people from engaging in economic activities, which shifted the AD curve left; meanwhile, the government forced the closure of most of the firms in the economy, which shifted the short-run AS curve left, leading to a lower natural rate of output in the overall economy. c. The government discouraged people from participating in economic activities, which shifted the AD curve right, causing a higher price level for the firm to produce more goods and services. Hence, the short-run aggregate supply shifts to the left, leading to much lower…The table below shows information on aggregate supply, aggregate demand and the price level for the imaginary country of Xurbia.

Identify the equilibrium. b. Imagine that as a result of a government tax cut, aggregate demand becomes higher by 50 at every price level. Identify the new equilibrium. c. How will the new equilibrium alter output? How will it alter the price level? What do you think will happen to employment?
- Author claims, “The pandemic was unexpected shock. Climate change and climate policy are known shocks that can even more substantial impact on economic structures and macroeconomic stability.”Critically explain this statement by using AD-AS model.What are the results of economic policies in Mexico and what do they look like in the short-run and long-run? Include an AD-AS Model graph that shows the results of your recommended economic policies.Author claims, “The pandemic was unexpected shock. Climate change and climate policy are known shocks that can even more substantial impact on economic structures and macroeconomic stability.”Critically explain this statement by using AD-AS model. Give an example related to Australia.
- Use AD/AS model to solve the following problems. You have to DRAW and explain AD/AS model. Hydraulic fracturing ( fracking) has the potential to significantly increase the amount of natural gas produced in the United States. Assume a large percentage of factories and utility companies use natural gas. Scenario A: the economy is operating at full employment level of output. Scenario B: The economy is operating below full employment. what will happen to output, the price level, and employment as fracking becomes more widely used? LO1: Analyze the dynamic economic environment using economic notions and theories. LO2: Explain consumer and producer behavior and economic decision-making of economic units under different market structures. LO3: Describe and interpret measures of macroeconomic performance including potential efficiencies, government actions, and market forces.Make a graph that shows where Indonesia currently is on the business cycle. Can you also include an AD-AS Model graph that shows if the economy is currently experiencing a recessionary gap, expansionary gap, or long run equilibrium?Indicators dashboard assignment 2022 Macroeconomics is about more than just the models discussed in the textbook. JM Keynes wrote about the master economist: ..."He must understand symbols and speak in words. He must study the present in the light of the past for the purposes of the future". As part of your training as master economists, you need to keep an eye on the news and macroeconomic indicators that economists are interested in. For 20% of your module mark you need to present the indicators that you followed throughout the semester in a indicators dashboard. This is due on 27 May 2022. Instructions: • You can compile your dashboard in any way that you like, but for assessment you need to upload a pdf report on eFundi. • This report needs to present the indicators data in tables and graphs, and you need to briefly interpret them: o Use the macroeconomic policy objectives as a starting point: economic growth and increasing employment, stable and low inflation, a sustainable…
- Answer only D &E ( No need to answer a,b,c) 18. Using AS-AD diagrams, illustrate each of the following economic situations by showing the patterns and shifts of either AS or AD that could cause them to happen: a. a rise in the price level triggered by higher oil prices; b. a rise in inflation that happens four years in a row because government spending keeps increasing; c. foreign investors gain confidence and increase the level of investment in the U.S. economy; d. the economies of trading partners grow very slowly, leading to a decrease in exports to those countries e. output declines slightly but the price level falls a great deal. Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution. Maintain accuracy and quality in your answer. Take care of plagiarism. Answer completely. You will get up vote for sure.The long run macroeconomic performance of an economy can be reflectedfrom the changes of her major macroeconomic indicators. With appropriateinterpretations of the changes to these indicators, one can identify the inherentstructural features of an economy, and hence, identify her strengths andweaknesses. In about 250 words, write a short essay on ONE economy from the list below:i. Singapore;ii. The United Kingdom;iii. The United States.In your essay, describe the changes of major macroeconomic indicators fromthe last decade. Using them to illustrate major structural features of the choseneconomy. Based on the above, identify ONE inherent problem implied bythese structural features that might limit her macroeconomic performance inthe long run. Suggest ONE practical government policy in dealing with thisinherent problem.Use AD/AS model to solve the following problem. You are expected to: 1. DRAW and explain with AD/AS model. Hydraulic fracturing (fracking) has the potential to significantly increase the amount of natural gas produced in the United States. Assume a large percentage of factories and utility companies use natural gas. In the following two scenarios, what will happen to output, the price level, and employment as fracking becomes more widely used? Scenario A: the economy is operating at full employment level of ouptput. Scenario B: The economy is operating below full employment.
