Suppose a decrease in consumer confidence has caused aggregate demand to shift from AD to AD1.

Business
1 answer:
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]2 years ago
4 0

Based on the shift of aggregate demand from AD to AD1, the aggregate demand would have changed by -$30 Billion.

The expenditures multiplier based on the MPC is 5.

The investment needs to change by $6 billion.

To get to the required investment demand, the Fed needs to change rates from 10% to <u>7%</u> and would need to adjust the money supply by $20 billion increase.

<h3>What is the change in aggregate demand?</h3>

This can be found as:

= ADI - Real GDP at AD

= 90 - 120

= -$30 billion.

<h3>What is the expenditure multiplier?</h3>

This can be found as:

= 1 / ( 1 - MPC)

= 1 / (1 - 0.8)

= 5

<h3 /><h3>What should the investment change by?</h3>

Investment demand should change by:

= Shortfall in GDP / Multiplier

= 30 / 5

= $6 billion

<h3>What interest rate should the Fed implement to the investment level required?</h3>

Investment amount required:

= Current investment + Required investment

= 10 + 6

= $16 billion

Rate needs to become 7% according to graph.

<h3>How much should money supply be adjusted?</h3>

In order to get to the desired 7%, the money supply needs to increase to $50 billion. The adjustment is:

= New level - Current level

= 50 - 30

= $20 billion

If a competitive firm can sell a bushel of soybeans for $25 and it has an average variable cost of $24 per bushel and the margin
Liula [17]

Answer: reduce output.

Explanation:

In a competitive market, firms do not have control over the price that they sell their goods in the market but they do have control over their costs. It is recommended to produce/ sell goods at a quantity where Marginal Revenue will equal Marginal cost (MR = MC).

In a Competitive Market, Price is the same as Marginal revenue which means that Marginal revenue here is $25 and the Marginal Cost is $26. At this quantity of output, the Marginal Cost is larger than the Marginal revenue.

Company should therefore reduce output to a quantity where Marginal Cost will equal Marginal revenue.

In 1970 Professor Fellswoop earned $12,000; in 1980 he earned $24,000; and in 1990 he earned $36,000. If the CPI was 40 in 1970,
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

In 1980

Explanation:

Year        Salary        Percentage Salary Increase        CPI Increase

1970       $12,000     -                                                      -

1980       $24,000    100                                                 50

1990       $36,000    50                                                   83.3

As can be seen in the table, the Professor's salary increase from 1970 to 1980 was twice as much as the CPI increase during the same period.

On the contrary, his salary increase from 1980 to 1990 was significantly less than the CPI increase during the same period.

Therefore, the professor's salary was highest in 1980.
