Consider the classical AS-AD model with misperceptions. Assume that the economy is initially at its general equilibrium. Now, suppose the central bank considers an increase in the nominal money supply that is not anticipated by households or firms. b. How does the misperception theory work? c. Which of the three markets discussed in class is first affected (labor, goods, or asset market)? Explain and show graphically how this market is affected by an unanticipated increase in the nominal money supply.

1. Suppose that the oil price sharply increased for a while, which increased production costs, causing an adverse supply shock. A. Use the AD-AS model to show the effects on output and the price level in both the short- run and long-run. B. Show the adjustment process of the economy from the short-run to the long-run. C. What is the effect on unemployment in short-run and long-run? D. Can policymakers do something to accommodate this shock? Would the outcome be different in this case?
Assume, while an economy is in long-run equilibrium, an adverse supply shock occured, suchas energy prices have incrased. The central bank decides to accommodate this shock and restores theequilibrium quickly. What would be the effect of this policy action on inflation? Explain and illustratewith the help of an AD-AS diagram.
Consider the Keynesian sticky wage model. Assume that the economy is operating close to, but not at, its zero lower bound (ZLB). Discuss the following: 1. Could a negative shock to the IS curve make the ZLB bind? Explain and illustrate graph- ically. 2. Could a shock to current productivity z make the ZLB bind? What would need to be the sign of this shock to make the ZLB bind? 3. In the data, in most episodes where the ZLB binds (the US in the wake of the Great Recession, Japan during the 1990s, and the US during the Great Depression), output is low. Given this, would a supply shock as the reason for a binding ZLB make empirical sense? 4. Intuitively, explain why changes in government spending have a bigger effect on output at the ZLB than away from it.
Draw and properly label an AD-AS model to show Keynesian, intermediate, and neoclassical zones. Then briefly explain the level of unemployment, inflation and real gdp in each zone, and confirm wether all three goals of a macro economy are being achieved in each zone .
Refer to the accompanying figure. LRAS Inflation a A 0, y' Output O O An economy is currently in long-run equilibrium at point B, at an inflation rate of m, which is too high to sustain economic growth. If an anti-inflationary policy is enacted, the economy will be in short-run equilibrium at point creating gap.

In the neoclassical zone on the graph above, supply is at its potential GDP, at full capacity. When aggregate supplies have reached their full potential output, what happens if demand shifts to the right? Select one: a. The GDP deflator shifts up and to the left. b. The aggregate supply outputs increase and LRAS shifts to the right. c. The aggregate demand prices increase as AD shifts to the right. d. The aggregate demand prices decrease as AD shifts to the right. Price Level
Assess the view that when an economy experiences a negative economic shock there willalways be a sustained increase in unemployment.
1) According to the Phillips Curve, as unemployment falls what happens to inflation? Why? 2) According to the Phillips Curve, as unemployment rises what happents to inflaiton? Why? 3) According to the Aggregate Supply/ Aggrgeate Demand model, if AD increases what happebs to Price Level GDP and Unemployment 4) Accroding to the AS/AD model, if AD decreases what happens to PL, GDP and unemployment? 5) According to the AS/AD model if AS decreases what happens to PL GDP and unemployment? 6) Based on your answer to #5 how would you show the decrease in AS on the Philips Curve?
