Changes in the interest rate affect planned investment spending and hence the equilibrium level of output, Group of answer choices but this change in investment spending is crowded out by lower consumer expenditures. but this change in investment spending is crowded out by higher government spending. but this change in investment spending merely causes a movement along the IS curve and not a shift. but this change in investment spending is crowded out by higher taxes.

a. An economy is initially at the natural level of output. There is an increase in government spending. Use the IS-LM model to illustrate both the short-run and long-run impact of this policy change. Be sure to label: i) the axes; ii) the curves; iii) the initial equilibrium, iv) the short-run equilibrium, and v) the terminal equilibrium. b. Explain in words the short-run and long-run impact of the change in government spending on output and interest rates.

As monetary policymakers care more about inflation stabilization, the slope of the aggregate demand curve becomes flatter. How does the resulting change in the slope of the aggregate demand curve help stabilize inflation when the economy is hit with a temporary negative supply shock? How does this affect output? Use a graph of aggregate demand and supply to demonstrate.
