Respuesta :

Based on the shift of aggregate demand from AD to AD1, the aggregate demand would have changed by -$30 Billion.

The expenditures multiplier based on the MPC is 5.

The investment needs to change by $6 billion.

To get to the required investment demand, the Fed needs to change rates from 10% to 7% and would need to adjust the money supply by $20 billion increase.

What is the change in aggregate demand?

This can be found as:

= ADI - Real GDP at AD

= 90 - 120

= -$30 billion.

What is the expenditure multiplier?

This can be found as:

= 1 / ( 1 - MPC)

= 1 / (1 - 0.8)

= 5

What should the investment change by?

Investment demand should change by:

= Shortfall in GDP / Multiplier

= 30 / 5

= $6 billion

What interest rate should the Fed implement to the investment level required?

Investment amount required:

= Current investment + Required investment

= 10 + 6

= $16 billion

Rate needs to become 7% according to graph.

How much should money supply be adjusted?

In order to get to the desired 7%, the money supply needs to increase to $50 billion. The adjustment is:

= New level - Current level

= 50 - 30

= $20 billion
