Question 15 – Question 17: A closed economy can be described by the AD-AS model. Planned aggregate expenditure: AEPlanned = 500 – 2P + 0.6Y Short-run aggregate supply (SRAS): P = (0.2Y – 90) (w/50), where W = wage rate Long-run equilibrium level of output: Y = 850 Initially, the economy is in its long-run equilibrium, and the equilibrium levels of price and wage rate are 80 and 50 respectively. Question 15 Now, suppose there was a fall in the housing prices and autonomous expenditure falls by 40. The AD curve has shifted horizontally to the _______________(Left/Right) by ___________(How much).

Consider a closed economy that can be described by the AD-AS model. In addition, prices can adjust to a change in aggregate demand or aggregate supply. Planned aggregate expenditure: AEPlanned = 800 – 5P + 0.8Y Short-run aggregate supply (SRAS): P = (0.1Y – 50)(W50), where W = wage Long-run equilibrium level of output: Y = 1,500 Initially, the economy is in its long-run equilibrium, and the equilibrium levels of price and wage are 100 and 50 respectively. Question 16 Suppose there is a fall in business confidence such that autonomous expenditure changes by 8.75%. (Note: You need to decide whether autonomous expenditure increases or decreases). The AD curve has shifted horizontally to the ____ (left or right) by ______ (how much).
