ESSAY

1. If the economy is self-regulating, explain the correct sequence of events that occurs once the economy is in a recessionary gap to move the economy to long-run equilibrium.

ANS:

The actual unemployment rate is greater than the natural unemployment rate and actual Real GDP is less than Natural Real GDP. Labor market surpluses will push wages down and the SRAS curve will shift to the right. This shift will cause the price level to fall, so the real balance, interest rate and international trade effects will make the quantity demanded of Real GDP increase and the economy will move down the AD curve. Ultimately, the economy will move to long-run equilibrium and produce its Natural Real GDP.

2. Explain how it is possible for the economy to produce at a point beyond its institutional production possibilities frontier (PPF), but not beyond its physical PPF.

ANS:

The physical PPF represents the maximum combinations of goods that can be produced with a fixed amount of resources and technology, so it is currently impossible for production to occur beyond this level. The institutional PPF represents the maximum combinations of goods that can be produced with fixed resources and technology, plus the institutional constraints of that society. When forces within the economy cause people to relax their customary social constraints, it is possible for that economy to produce beyond its institutional PPF.

3. Describe how Say's law can hold in a money economy, according to the classical economists.

ANS:

In order for Say's law to hold in a money economy, any money that is saved must be spent through investment. Interest rate flexibility is the key to the classical economists' argument. If households save more and spend less, the increased dollars saved push down market interest rates. Lower interest rates will stimulate investment and make up for the lack of spending by households so that no overproduction will occur.

4. Explain the policy implications of the classical economists' beliefs.

ANS:

KEY: Bloom's: Application

NAT: BUSPROG: Analytic LOC: DISC: Understanding and applying economic models

The classical economists believed that the economy was self-regulating. Their view was that any recessionary or inflationary gaps would be eliminated through changes in the markets. They believed that wages, prices, and interest rates would adjust to clear any overproduction, or underproduction, of goods and services. Given that they believed that the economy could heal itself, they saw no need for government intervention in the economy. These beliefs caused the classical economists to advocate a macroeconomic policy of laissez faire.

5. Using the aggregate demand and aggregate supply (AD-SRAS) framework, explain how a large-scale natural disaster would be expected to impact the economy. Discuss how an economist who believesthe economy is self-regulating would view the longer term impact of such a disaster, and whether they would advocate the need for government intervention.

ANS:

A large-scale natural disaster represents an adverse supply shock, and thus the SRAS curve would shift leftward as a result. A leftward shift in the SRAS curve causes a rise in the price level and a decline in Real GDP, possibly pushing the economy into a recessionary gap. Economists who believe the economy is self-regulating would contend that even if the economy were in a recessionary gap that it would be a temporary situation. If Real GDP fell below its natural level, over time wages would fall, the SRAS curve would shift rightward, and the recessionary gap would be eliminated without the need for government intervention to resolve the problem.

6. Describe the difference between business-cycle macroeconomics and economic-growth macroeconomics.

ANS:

Business-cycle macroeconomics involves changes in Real GDP (up and down) around a fixed LRAS curve. Economic-growth macroeconomics deals with increases in Real GDP resulting from a rightward-shifting LRAS curve. The rightward shifts in the LRAS represent economic growth.
