Business inventories tend to decrease and signals firms to increase production if total expenditure (TE) is higher than total product (TP).
Business inventories tend to rise and signals firms to decrease production if total expenditure (TE) is smaller than total product (TP)
The economy is in equilibrium if total expenditure (TE) = total product (TP)
(1) The economy is in equilibrium (TE=TP)
(2) unexpected business inventory depletion signals firms to increase production (TE>TP)
(3) unexpected business inventory accumulation signals firms to decrease production (TE<TP)
Complete the following table by identifying the three states of the economy in terms of total...
The economy is in equilibrium, TP = TE, and Real GDP is $2,000 billion. The MPC is 0.75, the multiplier is operative, and idle resources exist at each expenditure round. Autonomous investment spending falls by $10 billion. As a result, the TE curve shifts __________, inventory levels unexpectedly __________, business firms __________ the quantity of goods and services they produce, and Real GDP __________ by __________. downward; rise; decrease; falls; $7.5 billion downward; fall; increase; rises; $40 billion downward; rise;...
Question 37 Supply-side economics emphasizes: long-run effects on aggregate supply rather than short-run effects on aggregate demand. all of the above. low marginal tax rates. increasing incentives to work, save, and invest. ---------------------- A progressive tax system is one for which: each tax payer pays an equal dollar amount in taxes. taxes as a percentage of income decreases as income increases. taxes as a percentage of income are the same for all income levels. taxes as a percentage of income...
Suppose an economy produces cell phones and GPS devices in perfectly competitive industries. The economy is currently operating at a point on its production possibility frontier. The economy will most likely move to a less-desirable point on the production possibility frontier if more firms enter the GPS device industry. O a single firm gains control over the production of cell phones. more firms enter the cell phone industry. more firms enter both the GPS device industry and the cell phone...
The following table presents forecasted returns for three companies under various potential states of the economy: State Probability Stock X Stock Z Stock Y 27.3% Above Average 10% 37.2% 41.0% Average 45% 17.8% 6.0% 13.6% Below Average 30% -1.2% -4.0% -7.0% Recession 15% -10.6% -16.9% -6.0% 30% Weight 55% 15% What is the standard deviation on a portfolio of these three companies constructed according to the weights given in the table? (Report answer in percentage terms and round to 2...
Given the following information about a nation’s economy, answer the questions below. C = 250 + .8 Yd T = 100 I = 275 G = 175 X = 65 M = 70 Use algebra to solve for equilibrium. (You must show ALL of your work.) Recall that in equilibrium, TE = TP =Y. Calculate the multiplier. Refer to part (a) and simplify the TE equation into standard slope-intercept form: TE = A + MPC*Y If you can not easily...

Complete the following table showing the impact of each transaction on total assets, total liabilities and total equity. Use (+) to show an increase, (–) to show a decrease and ‘NC’ if there is no change. Assets Liabilities Shareholders’ Equity 1. Issued common shares in exchange for a building 2. Purchased inventory on account 3. Paid the utility bill for that month 4. Paid a cash dividend to common shareholders 5. Borrowed money from the bank
2. Assume the economy is initially in equilibrium, and then firms expect future total factor productivity, z', to decrease. Using the New Keynesian Model framework, what are the implications on the following outcomes. For the money market, use the framework with interest rates on the vertical axis. f) Wages (increase / decrease / indeterminate / no change)? g) Money supply increase / decrease / indeterminate / no change)? h) Money demand increase / decrease / indeterminate / no change)? i)...
