Explain how the static aggregate demand and aggregate supply model gives us misleading results about the price level, particularly with respect to decreases in aggregate demand.
 
  Describe how the aggregate demand curve is different in the dynamic model as compared to the static model. Describe how potential GDP is different in the dynamic model as compared to the static model.

Question 2

Refer to Table 4-4. Suppose that the quantity of labor supplied increases by 40,000 at each wage level. What are the new free market equilibrium hourly wage and the new equilibrium quantity of labor?
 
  A) W = 9.50; Q = 420,000 B) W = 9.00; Q = 410,000
  C) W = 8.50; Q = 400,000 D) W = 8.00; Q = 390,000

Answer to Question 1

The static model incorrectly predicts that a recession caused by a shift to the left in the aggregate demand curve will cause the price level to fall. This has not happened for an entire year since the 1930s. The misleading results stem from one assumption of the static model: the economy does not experience continuing inflation. The dynamic model changes this by assuming instead that the aggregate demand curve will shift to the right during most years. Even if demand growth slows, the price level rises.
Also in the dynamic model, potential GDP is constantly growing. If the aggregate demand curve shifts to the right by less than the shift in the long-run aggregate supply curve, then equilibrium GDP falls below potential GDP, but the price level is still rising.

Answer to Question 2

As the western states of America were settled, pioneers often had to drink rancid water from ponds and other sources. This often resulted in chronic diarrhea, causing many cases of dehydration and death that could have been avoided if clean water had been available.

In the ancient and medieval periods, dysentery killed about ? of all babies before they reach 12 months of age. The disease was transferred through contaminated drinking water, because there was no way to adequately dispose of sewage, which contaminated the water.

Did you know?

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).

Did you know?

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).
