Answer to Question 1

A reduction in Ye will cause human wealth to be higher. Individuals will reduce their current consumption and the IS curve will shift left. A reduction in Ye will also cause firms to decrease their expectations of future expected profits. When this occurs, the discounted present value of future profits is lower causing I to decrease. As I decreases, the IS curve shifts left. This will have no effect on the LM curve.

Answer to Question 2
