In the above figure, the shift from point C to point B might be the result of

a decrease in government expenditures

You observe that unplanned inventories are increasing. You predict that there will be

a recession

In the above figure, point A represents

a recessionary gap.

Suppose that in a particular economy, the multiplier is equal to 5. In terms of aggregate demand and aggregate supply, this value for the multiplier means that after an increase in investment

at each price level, the aggregate demand curve shifts rightward by an amount equal to 5 times the change in investment.

Business cycle turning points are

brought about by changes in autonomous expenditures that are then subject to the multiplier effect.

The intertemporal substitution effect of a change in the price level results from a

change in the price of current goods relative to future goods

Imports

decrease the size of the multiplier because spending on imports does not increase real GDP in the domestic nation.

decrease; increase

If the price level rises, the purchasing power of wealth

decreases

The size of the multiplier

decreases in the long run.

eventually adjust to a long-run equilibrium with a lower price level. C

In the above figure, a change in autonomous consumption to $4 trillion with no change to the MPC would cause the consumption function to

exhibit a parallel shift upward.

greater; decrease; increase

In the above figure, B is the current long-run aggregate supply curve and E is the current short-run aggregate supply curve. If there is an increase in the full-employment quantity of labor, then the long-run aggregate supply curve and the short-run aggregate supply curve

shift to C and F, respectively.

A Keynesian economist believes that

if the economy was left alone, it would rarely operate at full employment.

In the above figure, the short-run aggregate supply curve is SAS and the aggregate demand curve is AD. An inflationary gap exists

if the long-run aggregate supply curve is LAS1

Which of the following is NOT an autonomous expenditure in the aggregate expenditure model?

imports

Disposable income is

income minus taxes plus transfer payments

Suppose that the slope of the AE curve is 0.67. Then a $100 increase in autonomous spending means equilibrium expenditure will

increase by $300.

Any expenditure component that depends on the level of real GDP is called

induced expenditure.

The data in the above table indicate that when the price level is 120

inventories rise and the price level falls

The long-run aggregate supply (LAS) curve

is vertical

In the long run, the multiplier

is zero

The multiplier effect exists because a change in autonomous expenditure

leads to changes in income, which generate further spending.

The U.S. exchange rate rises. As a result, there is a

leftward shift of the U.. aggregate demand curve

The slope of the saving function is equal to the

marginal propensity to save.

Because of changes in the ________, the long-run effect of a $10 increase in investment on real GDP equals ________.

money wage rate and price level; zero

The short-run aggregate supply curve shifts leftward when the

money wage rate increases

Aggregate demand increases when

none of the answers provided are correct

The short-run multiplier is equal to 3, real GDP equals potential GDP of $8,000, and the price level is equal to 100. Suppose that government expenditure decreases by $200. The LONG-RUN effect of the decrease in government expenditure changes real GDP by

nothing; that is, in the long run real GDP equals $8,000

In the above figure, the increase in autonomous expenditure moves the economy from point E to

point G.

In the above figure, at the point where AD equals SAS

real GDP exceeds potential GDP

Autonomous expenditure is not influenced by

real GDP.

real wealth from the fall in the price level; point c

If the aggregate demand curve shifts ________ faster than the long-run aggregate supply curve, then ________ occurs

rightward; inflation

The land of Mordor increases its capital stock. As a result, the long-run aggregate supply curve shifts ________ and so does the ________ curve.

rightward; short-run aggregate supply

In an economy, the multiplier is 3. If government expenditure increases by $1 million, then in the short run, the price level ________ and real GDP ________ $3 million

rises; increases by less than

"Dissaving" occurs whenever

saving is negative

A decrease in autonomous consumption will

shift the aggregate expenditure function downward

In the above figure, B is the current long-run aggregate supply curve and E is the current short-run aggregate supply curve. Technological advances mean the long-run aggregate supply curve and the short-run aggregate supply curve

shift to C and F, respectively.

With an increase in the capital stock, the short-run aggregate supply curve

shifts rightward

In a short-run macroeconomic equilibrium, real GDP exceeds potential GDP. If aggregate demand does not change, then the

short-run aggregate supply curve will shift leftward as the money wage rate rises.

In a short-run macroeconomic equilibrium, potential GDP exceeds real GDP. If aggregate demand does not change, then the

short-run aggregate supply curve will shift rightward as the money wage rate falls.

The data in the above table show that when the price level is 120, if aggregate demand does not change then the

short-run aggregate supply curve will shift rightward.

The larger the multiplier, the ________ the AE curve and the ________ the AD curve from an increase in investment.

steeper; larger the shift in

In the above figure, the curve labeled A shifts rightward if

taxes decrease

In the figure above, if income taxes increase,

the AE curve becomes flatter.

When autonomous expenditure decreases,

the AE curve shifts downward.

In the above figure the economy is initially at point A on the aggregate expenditure curve AE0. Suppose firms expect profits to increase and decide to increase investment. As a result

the AE curve shifts upward to a curve such as AE2.

Moving along which curve does the money wage rate and the price level change in the same proportions?

the LAS curve

In the above figure, the inflationary gap when AD2 is the aggregate demand curve equals

the difference between $18.5 trillion and $18.0 trillion.

A monetarist economist believes that

the economy is self-regulating and will normally, though not always, operate at full employment if monetary policy is not erratic.

The aggregate demand curve illustrates that, as the price level rises

the quantity of real GDP demanded decreases

Other things constant, the economy's aggregate demand curve shows that

the quantity of real GDP demanded decreases when the price level rises

The smaller the slope of the AE curve,

the smaller is the value of the multiplier.

Intertemporal substitution means changes in purchases

through time.

The aggregate demand curve slopes downward because of

wealth and substitution effects.

In the figure above, negative saving occurs

when disposable income is at $10 trillion

After an increase in autonomous spending, in the long run a change in the price level

will reduce the effect of the multiplier
