Get started for freeConsider an economy described by the following:
(a) Derive expressions for the MP curve and the AD curve.
(b) Calculate the real interest rate and aggregate output whenand
(c) Draw a graph of the MP curve and the AD curve, labeling the points given in part (b).
Suppose the MP curve is given by r = 2 + p, and the IS curve is given by Y = 20 - 2r.
a. Derive an expression for the AD curve, and draw a
graph labeling points at p = 0, p = 4, and p = 8.
b. Suppose that l increases to l = 2. Derive an expression
for the new AD curve, and draw the new AD
curve using the graph from part (a).
c. What does your answer to part (b) imply about the
relationship between a central bank’s distaste for
inflation and the slope of the AD curve?
Suppose the monetary policy curve is given by , and the IS curve is given by .
a. Calculate an expression for the aggregate demand curve.
b. Calculate the real interest rate and aggregate output when the inflation rate is 2%, 3%, and 4%.
c. Draw graphs of the IS, MP, and AD curves, labeling the points from part (b) on the appropriate graphs.
