He believed that people would continue to populate the earth until output reached a subsistence level. On the other hand Kremer argues that population growth increased productivity allowing people to improve their standard of living despite growing population. Kremer argues that with more population comes more innovations. The improvements in technology more than offset any adverse impact of the increase in population on the standard of living.57. As shown in the graph below, the economy starts in equilibrium at point E0 with interest rate r0 and equilibrium quantity of saving and investment at q0. If the government succeeds in obtaining a surplus, there will be more public saving in the economy at each interest rate, and the supply of loanable funds curve will shift from S0 to S1. The new equilibrium will be at E1, with a lower interest rate, r1 and a higher quantity of saving and investment, q1. Hence, if the federal government succeeds in having a surplus, interest rates will fall and investment will increase.Market for Loanable Funds58. 1. Prices rise when the government prints too much money.2. There is a short-run tradeoff between inflation and unemployment.59. Inflation-indexed bonds are bonds whose interest and principal payments are adjusted upward for inflation, guaranteeing their real purchasing power in the future. They are important because they provide a safe, inflation-proof asset for savers and they may allow the Treasury to borrow more easily at a lower current cost.60. Examples in the text (or variations) include increased immigration, a decrease in the minimum wage, more generous unemployment insurance, an increase in the capital stock, an increase in the average level of education, a discovery of new mineral deposits, technology, and removal of barriers to international trade.61.See graph.Over time technological advances cause the long-run aggregate supply curve to shift right. Increases in the money supply cause the aggregate demand curve to shift right. Output growth puts downward pressure on the price level, but money supply growth contributes to rising prices.62. The reduction in the money supply raises the interest rate. So the return on bonds increases relative to the return on stocks. The increase in the interest rate also causes spending to fall so that revenues and profits fall making shares of ownership in corporations less valuable.63.The fiscal policy lags are mostly a matter of waiting to implement the policy. By the time the president and Congress can agree to and pass legislation changing expenditures or taxes, the recession may have ended. The Federal Reserve can act to change the money supply quickly, but it may take some time before the effects of an increase in the money supply work their way through the economy.64. 当政府支出30亿美元购买警车时,直接投资增加警车生产企业的利润,这种增加又使该企业雇佣更多工人,并增加生的。

中国人民大学宏观经济学期末考试试题(含答案)

中国人民大学宏观经济学期末考试试题(含答案)

1)奥肯定律[答案]:奥肯定律的含义是失业率与实际国民生产总值之间存在一种高度负相关关系。

奥肯定律的主要内容是:失业率如果超过充分就业界限(通常以4%的失业率为标准)时,每使失业率降低1%,实际国民生产总值则增加3%。

反之,失业率每增加1%,实际国民生产总值则减少3%。

2)一个农民种植了 1 蒲式耳小麦,并以1 美元的价格卖给磨坊主。

磨坊主把小麦磨成面粉,然后以3 美元的价格卖给面包师。

面包师用面粉制造面包,并以6 美元的价格卖给一个工程师,工程师吃了面包。

每个人的增加值是多少?GDP 是多少?[答案] 每个人的增值等于成品的价值减去每个人支付的原材料的成本。

因此农民的增值S1(1刀);面粉厂的增值为S2(3-1=2刀);面包店的增值为S3(6-3=3刀)。

GPD 是总的价值增量,即1+2+3=6刀。

注意:GDP与最终产品(面包)价值相等。

3)把下列交易归入四个支出部分之一:消费、投资、政府购买以及净出口。

A、波音公司向空军出售一架飞机(政府购买)B、波音公司向美国航空公司出售一架飞机(投资)C、波音公司向法国航空公司出售一架飞机(净出口)D、波音飞机向阿密拉•埃尔哈特出售了一架飞机(消费)E、波音公司制造了一架下半年出售的飞机(投资)4)考虑有三种投入的柯布-道格拉斯生产函数。

K 是资本(机器数量)、L 是劳动(工人人数)、H 是人力资本(工人中大学毕业生人数)。

生产函数为:A、推导出劳动的边际产量。

人力资本量的增加如何影响劳动的边际产量?B、推导出人力资本的边际产量的表达式。

人力资本量的增加怎样影响人力资本的边际产量?C、支付给劳动的收入份额是多少?支付给人力资本的收入份额是多少?在这个经济的国民收入核算中。

你认为工人会得到多大的总收入份额?D、一个不熟练工人赚到劳动的边际产量,而一个熟练工人赚到劳动的边际产量加人力资本的边际产量。

I ncreases in themoney supply cause the aggregate dema nd curve to shift right. Output growth puts dow nward pressure on the price level, but money supply growth con tributes to rising prices.62. The reduct ion in the money supply raises the in terest rate. So the return on bonds in creases relative to the retur n on stocks. The in crease in the in terest rate also causes spe nding to fall so that revenues and profits fall making shares of ownership in corporations less valuable.63.

If an individual or company is not confident that claims over property or over the income from property can be protected, or that contracts can be enforced, there will be little incentive for individuals to save, invest, or start new businesses. Likewise, there will be little incentive for foreigners to invest in the real or financial assets of the country. The distortion of incentives will reduce efficiency in resource allocation and will精品文档reduce saving and investment which in turn will reduce the standard of living.57. a. A municipal bond, because generally they have low credit risk and are notsubject to federal income tax.b. A junk bond. Because of their high risk, they have a high return.c. A corporate bond that isn't a junk bond. Because they have more risk thangovernment bonds and have no special tax treatment, they pay moderate ratesof return.58.First National Bank of MeAssets LiabilitiesReserves $800 Deposits $5,000Loans $4,20059.The costs of inflation include "shoeleather costs," the cost of reducing your money holdings to reduce your inflation tax; "menu costs," the costs of price adjustments; the costs of resource misallocation that result from the relative-price variability induced by inflation; the costs of inflation-induced tax distortions; the costs of confusion and inconvenience; and the costs associated with the arbitrary redistribution of wealth that accompany unexpected inflation.60.Examples in the text (or variations) include increased immigration, a decrease in the minimum wage, more generous unemployment insurance, an increase in the capital stock, an increase in the average level of education, a discovery of new mineral deposits, technology, and removal of barriers to international trade.61.See graph. Over time technological advances cause the long-run aggregate supply curve to shift right. Increases in the money supply cause the aggregate demand curve to shift right. Output growth puts downward pressure on the price level, but money supply growth contributes to rising prices.62.The wealth effect is not very important because it operates through changes in the real value of money, and money is only a small fraction of household wealth. So it is unlikely that changes in the price level will lead to large changes in consumption spending through this channel. The exchange-rate effect is not very important in the United States because trade with other countries represents a relatively small fraction of U.S. GDP.63. If the interest rate is above equilibrium, there is an excess supply of money. People with more money than they want to hold given the current interest rate deposit the money in banks and buy bonds. The increase in funds to lend out causes the interest rate to fall. As the interest rate falls, the quantity of money demanded increases, which tends to diminish the excess supply of money.64. a) 税收减少增加了储蓄的收益、减少了投资的成本,但税收减少对储蓄和投资的影响要视情况而定。

He believed that people would continue to populate the earth until output reached a subsistence level. On the other hand Kremer argues that population growth increased productivity allowing people to improve their standard of living despite growing population. Kremer argues that with more population comes more innovations. The improvements in technology more than offset any adverse impact of the increase in population on the standard of living.57. As shown in the graph below, the economy starts in equilibrium at point E0 with interest rate r0 and equilibrium quantity of saving and investment at q0. If the government succeeds in obtaining a surplus, there will be more public saving in the economy at each interest rate, and the supply of loanable funds curve will shift from S0 to S1. The new equilibrium will be at E1, with a lower interest rate, r1 and a higher quantity of saving and investment, q1. Hence, if the federal government succeeds in having a surplus, interest rates will fall and investment will increase.Market for Loanable Funds58. 1. Prices rise when the government prints too much money.2. There is a short-run tradeoff between inflation and unemployment.59. Inflation-indexed bonds are bonds whose interest and principal payments are adjusted upward for inflation, guaranteeing their real purchasing power in the future.They are important because they provide a safe, inflation-proof asset for savers and they may allow the Treasury to borrow more easily at a lower current cost.60. Examples in the text (or variations) include increased immigration, a decrease in the minimum wage, more generous unemployment insurance, an increase in the capital stock, an increase in the average level of education, a discovery of new mineral deposits, technology, and removal of barriers to international trade.61.See graph.Over time technological advances cause the long-run aggregate supply curve to shift right. Increases in the money supply cause the aggregate demand curve to shift right. Output growth puts downward pressure on the price level, but money supply growth contributes to rising prices.62. The reduction in the money supply raises the interest rate. So the return on bonds increases relative to the return on stocks. The increase in the interest rate also causes spending to fall so that revenues and profits fall making shares of ownership in corporations less valuable.63.The fiscal policy lags are mostly a matter of waiting to implement the policy. By the time the president and Congress can agree to and pass legislation changing expenditures or taxes, the recession may have ended. The Federal Reserve can act to change the money supply quickly, but it may take some time before the effects of an increase in the money supply work their way through the economy.64. 当政府支出30亿美元购买警车时,直接投资增加警车生产企业的利润,这种增加又使该企业雇佣更多工人,并增加生的。
