一、概念题1.宏观经济学和微观经济学(macroeconomics vs. microeconomics)答:(1)与“微观经济学”相对而言,宏观经济学是一种现代的经济分析方法。
它以国民经济总体为考察对象,研究经济生活中有关总量的决定与变动,解释失业、通货膨胀、经济增长与波动、国际收支与汇率的决定与变动等经济中的宏观整体问题,所以又称之为总量经济学。
宏观经济学的中心和基础是总供给—总需求模型。
具体来说,宏观经济学主要包括总需求理论、总供给理论、失业与通货膨胀理论、经济周期与经济增长理论及开放经济理论及宏观经济政策等内容。
对宏观经济问题进行分析与研究的历史十分悠久,但现代意义上的宏观经济学直到20世纪30年代才得以形成和发展起来。
宏观经济学诞生的标志是凯恩斯于1936年出版的《就业、利息和货币通论》。
(2)微观经济学是西方经济学的重要组成部分,以市场经济中各个经济单位的经济行为和经济规律作为考查对象,研究单个生产者或企业是如何利用有限的资源生产商品和劳务以获取最大利润,以及单个消费者或家庭是如何利用有限的货币收入购买商品和劳务以获取最大满足的。
因此,微观经济学的核心内容是论证亚当·斯密的“看不见的手”原理。
微观经济学的理论内容主要包括:消费理论或需求理论、厂商理论、市场理论、要素价格或分配理论、一般均衡理论和福利经济理论等。
由于这些理论均涉及市场经济和价格机制的作用,因而微观经济学又被称为市场经济学。
什么是宏观经济学,什么是微观经济学?
什么是宏观经济学,什么是微观经济
学?
宏观经济学(Macroeconomics),是使用国民收入、经济整体的投资
和消费等总体性的统计概念来分析经济运行规律的一个经济学领域。
微观经济学又称个体经济学,小经济学,是现代经济学的一个分支,主要以单个经济单位(单个生产者、单个消费者、单个市场经济活动)作为研究对象分析的一门学科。
微观经济学是研究社会中单个经济单位的经济行为,以及相应的经济变量的单项数值如何决定的经济学说。
亦称市场经济学或价格理论。
扩展资料
微观经济学与宏观经济学之间的联系:
1、微观经济学和宏观经济学是互为补充的。
2、微观经济学是宏观经济学的基础。
3、宏观经济学并不是微观经济学的简单加总或重复。
4、两者共同构成了西方经济学的整体。
宏、微观经济学是现代西方经济学的两个分支学科,它们研究的对象不同,但两者的理论基础是相同的。
近来西方经济学的发展趋向于宏、微观融合,新凯恩斯主义宏观经济学也主张寻找微观基础。

MacroeconomicsPart I IntroductionChapter 1 The Science of Macroeconomics【Mainpoints】1.Exogenous Variables and Endogenous VariablesExample: The total quantity and price level of pizza in a country.Exogenous variables are given in a model. [aggregate income, price of materials]Endogenous variables are what a model explains. [price level and total quantity of pizza]2.Flexible Price and Sticky PriceFlexible price: easy to adjust, in short run.Sticky price: hard to adjust, in long run.Chapter 2 The Data of Macroeconomics【Mainpoints】1.GDP(1) Real GDP and Nominal GDP, GDP deflator(2) economy's income = economy's expenditure(3) GDP = C + G + I + NX2.CPI(1) CPI measures the price of a basket of goods(2) CPI = ∑P m Q / ∑P n Q(3) difference between GDP deflator and CPI3. The Unemployment Rate(1) Labour Force = Number of Unemployment + Number of Employment(2) Unemployment Rate = Number of Unemployment / Labour Force × 100%Part II Classical Theory: The Economy in the Long Run ---- Flexible Price Chapter 3 National Income: Where It Comes From and Where It Goes【Mainpoints】1.Total Production(1) Production Function: Y = F(L,K)(2) constant returns to scale: zY = zF(L,K)2. National Income Distribution(1) Factor Prices ---- Labour:MPL = F(L+1,K) - F(L,K)ΔProfit = ΔRevenue - ΔCost = MPL×P - WIn order to maximize profit, make ΔProfit = 0. So MPL=W/P, Real WageLabour Income = MPL×L(2) Factor Prices ---- CapitalMPK = F(L,K+1) - F(L,K)ΔProfit = ΔRevenue - ΔCost = MPK×P - RIn ordet to maximize profit, make ΔProfit= 0 . So MPK=R/P, Real Rental Price of CapitalCapital Income = MPK×K3)The Cobb-Douglas Production FunctionLabour Income = MPL×L = (1-α)YCapital Income = MPK×K = αY→F(K,L) = AKαL(1-α) , A measures the productivity of the available technology3.Total Demand1)Consumption:Determined by disposable incomeC=C(Y-T)Marginal Propensity to ConsumeMPC=C(Y-T+1)-C(Y-T)2)Investment:Determined by interest rateI=I(r)When r is high, investors will give upinvestment because cost of loan is higherthan rate of return.3) Government PurchasesG vs T, measures government budget5.

Macroeconomics, 7e (Blanchard)Chapter 19: Output, the Interest Rate, and the Exchange Rate19.1 Equilibrium in the Goods Market1) Assume that the price levels in two countries are constant. In this situation, we know thatA) neither the real nor the nominal exchange rate can change.B) the real exchange rate can change, while the nominal exchange rate is constant.C) the nominal exchange rate can change, while the real exchange rate is constant.D) the real and nominal exchange rate must move together, changing by the same percentage.E) the nominal exchange rate will fluctuate more widely than the real exchange rate. Answer: DDiff: 12) An increase in the real exchange rate will causeA) an increase in net exports.B) an increase in the quantity of imports.C) an increase in output.D) a decrease in government spending.E) all of the aboveAnswer: BDiff: 13) As the economy moves up and to the right along the IS curve, which of the following will occur when exchange rates are flexible?A) investment spending increasesB) consumption increasesC) the domestic currency depreciatesD) all of the aboveE) none of the aboveAnswer: DDiff: 14) In an economy operating under flexible exchange rates, explain why the IS curve is downward sloping.Answer: A reduction in i (assume zero inflation) will cause investment to increase for reasons discussed before. This causes an increase in Z and Y. There is a second effect now embedded in the IS curve. As i falls, the demand for the domestic currency drops causing a depreciation. This depreciation causes NX to rise and demand to rise even more. So, there are two components of demand that now change as i changes: I and NX.Diff: 219.2 Equilibrium in Financial Markets1) In order for an individual to be indifferent between holding foreign or domestic bonds,A) the Marshall-Lerner condition must hold.B) the foreign and domestic interest rates must be equal.C) the expected rate of depreciation of the domestic currency is zero.D) the interest parity condition must hold.Answer: DDiff: 12) The interest parity condition indicates that the domestic interest rate must be equal toA) the foreign interest rate.B) the expected rate of depreciation of the domestic currency.C) the expected rate of appreciation of the domestic currency.D) the foreign interest rate minus the expected rate of appreciation of the foreign currency.E) none of the aboveAnswer: EDiff: 13) Assume that the interest parity condition holds. Also assume that the U.S. interest rate is 8% while the U.K. interest rate is 6%. Given this information, financial markets expect the pound toA) depreciate by 14%.B) depreciate by 2%.C) appreciate by 2%.D) appreciate by 6%.E) appreciate by 14%.Answer: CDiff: 24) Assume that the interest parity holds and that the dollar is expected to depreciate against the pound. Given this information, we know thatA) U.S. and U.K. interest rates are equal.B) the U.S. interest rate exceeds the U.K. interest rate.C) the U.K. interest rate exceeds the U.S. interest rate.D) individuals will prefer to hold U.S. bonds because the U.S. interest rate exceeds the U.K. interest rate.E) none of the aboveAnswer: BDiff: 25) In an open economy, we know that individuals must choose between which of the following?A) domestic bonds and foreign currencyB) foreign goods and domestic currencyC) domestic and foreign bondsD) domestic goods and foreign currencyE) none of the aboveAnswer: CDiff: 16) A real appreciation will tend to causeA) an increase in exports.B) a reduction in imports.C) an increase in net exports.D) a reduction in demand for domestic goods.E) none of the aboveAnswer: DDiff: 17) A reduction in the real exchange rate will causeA) a reduction in net exports.B) a reduction in the quantity of imports.C) a reduction in output.D) an increase in government spending.E) all of the aboveAnswer: BDiff: 18) Assume that the interest parity condition holds. Also assume that the U.S. interest rate is 6% while the U.K. interest rate is 8%. Given this information, financial markets expect the pound toA) depreciate by 14%.B) depreciate by 2%.C) appreciate by 2%.D) appreciate by 6%.E) appreciate by 14%.Answer: BDiff: 29) Assume that the interest parity holds and that the dollar is expected to appreciate against the pound. Given this information, we know thatA) U.S. and U.K. interest rates are equal.B) the U.S. interest rate exceeds the U.K. interest rate.C) the U.K. interest rate exceeds the U.S. interest rate.D) individuals will prefer to hold U.S. bonds because the U.S. interest rate exceeds the U.K. interest rate.E) none of the aboveAnswer: CDiff: 210) A real depreciation will tend to causeA) a reduction in exports.B) an increase in imports.C) a reduction in net exports.D) an increase in demand for domestic goods.E) none of the aboveAnswer: DDiff: 111) Explain what the IP curve is and why it is upward sloping.Answer: The IP curve represents the combinations of i and E that maintain the interest parity condition. As i falls, foreign bonds will have a higher expected return. The demand for the dollar will fall causing an immediate depreciation. So, the drop in i causes E to fall. E will fall until all of the drop in i is offset by the expected appreciation of the dollar.Diff: 112) Suppose the domestic and foreign interest rates are both initially equal to 3%. Now suppose the domestic interest rate rises to 5%. Explain what effect this will have on the exchange rate. Also explain what must occur for the interest parity condition to be restored.Answer: Domestic bonds will have a higher return causing the demand for the domestic currency to rise. The dollar will appreciate. It will continue to appreciate as long as the return on domestic bonds exceeds the return on foreign bonds. This immediate appreciation will equal an expected depreciation of the domestic currency that equates the expected returns. So, the dollar will appreciate by 2%.Diff: 213) Suppose the domestic and foreign interest rates are both initially equal to 4%. Now suppose the foreign interest rate rises to 6%. Explain what effect this will have on the exchange rate. Also explain what must occur for the interest parity condition to be restored.Answer: Domestic bonds will have a lower return causing the demand for the domestic currency to fall. The dollar will depreciate. It will continue to depreciate as long as the return on domestic bonds is less than the return on foreign bonds. This immediate depreciation will equal an expected appreciation of the domestic currency that equates the expected returns. So, the dollar will depreciate by 2%.Diff: 219.3 Putting Goods and Financial Markets Together1) As the economy moves up and to the left along the IS curve, which of the following will occur when exchange rates are flexible?A) investment spending decreasesB) consumption decreasesC) the domestic currency appreciatesD) all of the aboveE) none of the aboveAnswer: DDiff: 12) In an open economy under flexible exchange rates, a reduction in the interest rate will cause a reduction in which of the following?A) investmentB) the exchange rate, EC) net exportsD) all of the aboveE) none of the aboveAnswer: BDiff: 23) In an open economy under flexible exchange rates and represented by the IS-LM-IP model, a reduction in government spending will cause a reduction in which of the following?A) net exportsB) the exchange rate, EC) exportsD) all of the aboveE) none of the aboveAnswer: CDiff: 24) In an open economy under flexible exchange rates, a reduction in consumer confidence that causes a reduction in consumption will cause which of the following?A) an appreciation of the domestic currencyB) a reduction in the exchange rate, EC) a reduction in net exportsD) all of the aboveE) none of the aboveAnswer: ADiff: 25) In an open economy under flexible exchange rates, expansionary monetary policy that results in an increase in the money supply will always causeA) an increase in output.B) an increase in exports.C) a reduction in the exchange rate, E.D) all of the aboveE) only A and CAnswer: DDiff: 26) Assume that the interest parity condition holds and that both the expected exchange rate and foreign interest rate are constant. Given this information, a reduction in the domestic interest rate will causeA) a reduction in the exchange rate expected in the future.B) a reduction in the current exchange rate.C) greater depreciation of the domestic currency expected in the future.D) all of the aboveE) none of the aboveAnswer: BDiff: 27) The exchange rate policy of the United States isA) the EMS.B) a crawling peg.C) a float.D) a fixed rate within a band.E) none of the aboveAnswer: CDiff: 18) In a flexible exchange rate regime, an increase in the foreign interest rate (i*) will causeA) the IP curve to shift to the left/up.B) the IP curve to shift to the right/down.C) a movement along the IP curve.D) neither a shift nor movement along the IP curve.Answer: BDiff: 39) In a flexible exchange rate regime, a reduction in the foreign interest rate (i*) will causeA) the IP curve to shift to the left/up.B) the IP curve to shift to the right/down.C) a movement along the IP curve.D) neither a shift nor movement along the IP curve.Answer: ADiff: 310) In a flexible exchange rate regime, an increase in the expected future exchange rate will causeA) the IP curve to shift to the left/up.B) the IP curve to shift to the right/down.C) a movement along the IP curve.D) neither a shift nor movement along the IP curve.Answer: BDiff: 311) In a flexible exchange rate regime, a reduction in the expected future exchange rate will causeA) the IP curve to shift to the left/up.B) the IP curve to shift to the right/down.C) a movement along the IP curve.D) neither a shift nor movement along the IP curve.Answer: ADiff: 312) Assume the interest parity condition holds and that initially i = i*. A reduction in the domestic interest rate will causeA) an increase in the demand for the domestic currency.B) a reduction in E.C) an expected depreciation of the domestic currency.D) all of the aboveAnswer: DDiff: 213) Assume the interest parity condition holds and that initially i = i*. A reduction in the foreign interest rate (i*) will causeA) an increase in the demand for the domestic currency.B) an increase in E.C) an expected depreciation of the domestic currency.D) all of the aboveAnswer: CDiff: 314) Explain what effect each of the following events will have on the IS curve in a flexible exchange rate regime: (1) an increase in foreign output; (2) a reduction in the foreign interest rate; and (3) an increase in the domestic interest rate.Answer: An increase in Y* causes X to rise, Z to rise, and the IS curve to shift to the right. A reduction in i* will cause an appreciation of the domestic currency, a reduction in NX, and a leftward shift in the IS curve. A change in i will only cause a movement along the IS curve. Diff: 215) Assume the exchange rate is allowed to fluctuate freely. Using the IS-LM-IP model, graphically illustrate and explain what effect a reduction in foreign output (Y*) will have on the domestic economy. In your graphs, clearly label all curves and equilibria.Answer: A reduction in Y* will cause a reduction in X and NX. This causes the IS curve to shift to the left. As demand falls, production will drop. The drop in Y will cause a reduction in money demand. As money demand falls, i will fall causing a depreciation. So, some of the effects of Y* on NX will be offset by the increase in NX caused by the depreciation. We will observe a reduction in NX, a reduction in Y, a reduction in i, and a reduction in E.Diff: 216) Assume the exchange rate is allowed to fluctuate freely. Using the IS-LM-IP model, graphically illustrate and explain what effect an increase in foreign output (Y*) will have on the domestic economy. In your graphs, clearly label all curves and equilibria.Answer: An increase in Y* will cause an increase in X and NX. This causes the IS curve to shift to the right As demand rises, production will increase. The increase in Y will cause an increase in money demand. As money demand rises, i will rise causing an appreciation. So, some of the effects of Y* on NX will be offset by the decrease in NX caused by the appreciation. We will observe an increase in NX, an increase in Y, an increase in i, and an increase in E.Diff: 219.4 The Effects of Policy in an Open Economy1) For this question, assume that there is a simultaneous tax increase and monetary expansion. Ina flexible exchange rate regime, we know with certainty thatA) the exchange rate and output would both increase.B) the exchange rate would increase and output would decrease.C) the exchange rate would decrease.D) the exchange rate would decrease and output would increase.E) none of the aboveAnswer: CDiff: 22) For this question, assume that there is a simultaneous increase in government spending and monetary contraction.

Using the IS-LM-IP model, graphically illustrate and explain what effect an increase in government spending will have on the domestic economy. In your graphs, clearly label all curves and equilibria.Answer: An increase in G will cause Z to increase and the IS curve to shift right. As demand increases, Y will rise causing an increase in money demand. The increase in money demand will cause an increase in i. As i rises, the demand for the domestic currency will increase causing an appreciation. This appreciation will cause a drop in NX. Any drop in I and the reduction in NX only partially offset the effects of the increase in G on demand and output.Diff: 27) Assume the exchange rate is allowed to fluctuate freely. Using the IS-LM-IP model, graphically illustrate and explain what effect monetary contraction will have on the domestic economy. In your graphs, clearly label all curves and equilibria.Answer: A reduction in M will cause the LM curve to shift up and the domestic interest rate to rise. As i rises, the return on domestic bonds is greater than foreign bonds. This causes an appreciation and a reduction in NX. So, the demand for goods falls via the drop in I and NX. We will observe a higher domestic interest rate, an increase in E, a drop in I, a reduction in NX, and a reduction in Y.Diff: 219.5 Fixed Exchange Rates1) Suppose a country with a fixed exchange rate decides to reduce the price of its currency.

Now suppose that households decide to increase consumption because of, for example, an increase in consumer confidence. Given this information, we would expect which of the following to occur?A) an increase in the domestic interest rateB) a reduction in EC) an increase in ED) an increase in investmentE) none of the aboveAnswer: DDiff: 225) Under a fixed exchange rate regime, suppose there is an increase in housing wealth that causes an increase in consumption. This wealth-induced increase in consumption will causeA) an increase in investment.B) a reduction in net exports.C) an increase in imports.D) all of the aboveE) none of the aboveAnswer: DDiff: 226) Under a fixed exchange rate regime, contractionary fiscal policy will tend to cause which of the following?A) a reduction in importsB) a reduction in net exportsC) an increase in investmentD) all of the aboveAnswer: ADiff: 227) For a country pursuing a fixed exchange rate regime, what does the interest parity condition imply about domestic and foreign interest rates? Explain.Answer: As long as the fixed exchange rate regime is credible, the interest rates must be equal. If the exchange rate regime is credible, we know that there will be no expected appreciation or depreciation so i = i*.Diff: 128) Assume the exchange rate is fixed. Using the IS-LM model, graphically illustrate and explain what effect a reduction in consumer confidence will have on the domestic economy. In your graphs, clearly label all curves and equilibria.Answer: A reduction in consumer confidence will cause a drop in C and will cause demand to fall and the IS curve to shift to the left. As Y falls, money demand will fall and the domestic interest rate will tend to fall. If i falls, there will be tremendous pressure on the domestic currency to depreciate as demand falls. The central bank cannot let this occur. To prevent this, it must reduce the money supply so that i does not fall. We will observe a drop in Y, no change in i, a reduction in I (via the drop in I), and an increase in NX caused by the drop in imports.Diff: 229) Assume that policy makers are pursuing a fixed exchange rate regime. Now suppose that the foreign interest rate increases. Discuss what policy makers must do to maintain the pegged exchange rate. Also discuss what effect this will have on domestic output and net exports. Answer: If i* increases, there will be pressure on the domestic currency to depreciate. To prevent this, the domestic central bank must raise its interest rate so that it rises by the same amount as i*. In this case, the LM curve will shift up so that the new equilibrium interest rate is equal to the now higher foreign interest rate. As i rises, E does not change. However, I will fall causing a reduction in demand and output. As Y falls, imports will fall and NX will increase. Diff: 230) To what extent can monetary policy be used to affect output in a fixed exchange rate regime? Explain.Answer: It cannot. To peg the exchange rate, the central bank must keep the domestic interest rate equal to the exogenous foreign interest rate. The domestic central bank cannot independently change its interest rate.Diff: 231) Assume the exchange rate is allowed to fluctuate freely. Using the IS-LM-IP model, graphically illustrate and explain what effect a reduction in government spending will have on the domestic economy. In your graphs, clearly label all curves and equilibria.Answer: A reduction in G will cause Z to decrease and the IS curve to shift left. As demand decreases, Y will fall causing a decrease in money demand. The decrease in money demand will cause an decrease in i. As i falls, the demand for the domestic currency will decrease causing a depreciation. This depreciation will cause a rise in NX. Any increase in I and the increase in NX only partially offset the effects of the reduction on demand and output.Diff: 232) Assume the exchange rate is allowed to fluctuate freely. Using the IS-LM-IP model, graphically illustrate and explain what effect monetary expansion will have on the domestic economy. In your graphs, clearly label all curves and equilibria.Answer: An increase in M will cause the LM curve to shift down and the domestic interest rate to fall. As i falls, the return on domestic bonds is less than foreign bonds. This causes an depreciation and an increase in NX. So, the demand for goods rises via the increase in I and NX. We will observe a lower domestic interest rate, a reduction in E, an increase in I, an increase in NX, and an increase in Y.Diff: 2。

一、对外贸易与经济活动1.开放经济中的净出口和产出(1)净出口和产出对外贸易包括进口和出口。
进口是指由国外提供而在本国国内消费的商品和服务。
出口是指在国内生产而被别国购买的商品和服务。
净出口定义为出口的商品和服务减去进口的商品和服务的净值。
与净出口相应的一个概念是对外净投资,它表示一国在国外的净储蓄或投资,并且大致等于净出口的价值。
在一个开放的经济中,一国的支出可能会不同于其产出。
国内支出(有时称国内需求)等于消费加国内投资再加政府采购。
即:()C I G国内支出国内需求=++国内总产出(或国内生产总值GDP)与国内支出有两点不同。

It has been updated, Boxes 19-2 and 19-5 have been added, and other boxes have been renumbered accordingly. Introduction to the MaterialThe Great Depression in the 1930s presented an economic crisis of enormous proportions. Between 1929 and 1933, real GDP in the U.S. fell by almost 30% and unemployment reached an all-time high of almost 25%. While the economy grew fairly rapidly from 1933-37, unemployment remained in the double digit range. In 1937/38, there was another major recession and the unemployment rate remained above 5% until 1942. In the 1930s unemployment averaged 18.8%, but by 1939 real GDP had recovered to its 1929 level.The classical economists of the time were not equipped to explain the existence of such substantial and persistent unemployment or to prescribe policies to deal with it. Only in 1936, in John Maynard Keynes’book The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money, was a macroeconomic theory introduced upon which policies to keep the economy out of future recessions could be based. Keynes’ theory provided an explanation of what had happened during the Great Depression and suggested policies that might have prevented it.The stock market crash of 1929 is often seen as the catalyst for the Great Depression but, in fact, economic activity actually started to decline even before the crash. What might well have393been an average recession turned into a very severe depression due to the inept economic policies employed at the time. The Fed failed to provide needed liquidity to banks and did little to prevent the collapse of the financial system. The huge contraction in money supply due to the large numbers of bank failures caused the economic downturn. Fiscal policy was weak at best. Politicians concerned with balancing the budget raised taxes to match increases in government spending, so the decline in aggregate demand was not counteracted.Many other countries also suffered during the same period, mainly as a result of the collapse of the international financial system and the enactment of high tariffs worldwide. These policies were designed to protect domestic producers in an attempt to improve each country’s domestic trade balance at the expense of foreign trading partners. However, the attempts to "export" unemployment ultimately resulted in an overall decline in world trade and production.In the U.S., many institutional changes and administrative actions, collectively known as the New Deal, were implemented in the 1930s. The Fed was reorganized and new institutions were created, including the FDIC, the SEC, and the Social Security Administration. Public works programs and a program to establish orderly competition among firms were also implemented.The experience of the Great Depression led to the belief that the economy is inherently unstable and active stabilization policy is needed to maintain full employment. Keynes was an advocate of active government policy. In his work, he explained what had happened in the Great Depression and what could be done to avoid a recurrence. Many years later, Milton Friedman and Anna Schwartz offered a different explanation. In their book A Monetary History of the United States, Friedman and Schwartz argued that the severe decline in money supply, caused by the Fed’s failure to prevent banks from failing, was the reason for the severity of the Great Depression. They claimed that monetary policy is very powerful and that fluctuations in money supply can explain most of the fluctuations in GDP over the last century. This argument provided the impetus for new research on the effects of fiscal and monetary stabilization policies. While economists are still debating these issues, we can conclude that monetary policy can affect the behavior of output in the short and medium run, but not in the long run. In the long run, increases in the growth rate of money supply will simply lead to increases in the rate of inflation. Box 19-3 gives an overview of the monetarist positions on the importance of money for the economy, while Box 19-2 quotes Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke, who admits that the magnitude of the Great Depression was indeed the result of the Fed’s action—or, more accurately, inaction.The link between inflation and monetary growth can easily be derived from the quantity theory of money equation:MV = PY ==> %∆M + %∆V = %∆P + %∆Y ==> m + v = π + y ==> π = m - y + v In other words, the rate of inflation (%∆P = π) is determined by the difference between the growth rate of nominal money supply (%∆M = m) and the growth rate of real output (%∆Y = y), adjusted for the percentage change in the income velocity of money (%∆V = v).Figure 19-1 shows that trends in the rate of inflation and the growth of money supply (M2) have been somewhat similar over the last four decades. There is plenty of evidence to support the notion that in the long run, inflation is a monetary phenomenon here in the U.S. as well as in other countries. However, there are short-run variations, indicating that changes in velocity and output growth have also affected the inflation rate. By the mid 1990s, the relationship between394M2 growth and inflation had largely broken down, even for the long run. It is still true, however, that there has never been inflation in the long run without rapid growth of money supply, and the faster money grew the higher the rate of inflation.Although there is no exact definition, countries are said to experience hyperinflation when the inflation rate reaches 1,000% annually. Countries that have experienced hyperinflation have all had huge budget deficits which, in many cases, originated from increased government spending during wartime. A classical example is the German hyperinflation of 1922/23. In an economy experiencing hyperinflation, there is often widespread indexing, most likely to foreign exchange rates rather than to the price level, since prices are changing so fast. Eventually, hyperinflation becomes too much to bear and the government is forced to take harsh measures, including fiscal reform and the introduction of a new monetary unit pegging the new money to a foreign currency. Box 19-4 on the situation in Bolivia in the 1980s provides a good example of how hyperinflation can be stopped. It also points out that the costs are great in terms of decreasing per-capita income. In 1985, Bolivia stopped external debt service, raised taxes, reduced money creation, and stabilized the exchange rate. Inflation came down quickly, but per-capita income in 1989 was 35 percent less than it had been a decade earlier.In its fight against hyperinflation, Israel tried to keep unemployment rates low by instituting wage and price controls while also sharply cutting budget deficits and rationing credit. These measures reduced the rate of inflation significantly. In the late 1980s, the governments of Argentina and Brazil imposed wage-price controls but failed to supplement them with fiscal austerity, so the result was much less satisfactory, although they, like many South American countries eventually succeeded in lowering their inflation rates. In the early 1990s, countries in Eastern Europe experienced brief periods of high inflation during their adjustments from centrally planned economies to more market based economies (as shown in Table 19-6). There is no guarantee that periods of hyperinflation will not surface again. New Box 19-5 describes the situation in Zimbabwe where the decision made in 2006 to print more money to finance higher government spending led to inflation rates in excess of 1,000%.When inflation is high, policy makers must focus on reducing it without causing a major economic downturn. This is fairly difficult to accomplish, however, since labor contracts tend to reflect past expectations and new contract negotiations take time. In addition, it may be difficult for a central bank to gain credibility in its fight against inflation because of its behavior in the past. Credibility is important, since inflationary expectations adjust down faster if people believe that a government is serious in its attempt to reduce inflation. If this is the case, the expectations-adjusted Phillips curve shifts to the left sooner and the economy adjusts more quickly to the full-employment level of output at a lower inflation rate. But some increase in unemployment is almost always needed to reduce inflation, since real wages need to adjust down to their full-employment level. The costs to society are often measured in terms of the sacrifice ratio, that is, the ratio of the cumulative percentage loss of GDP to the achieved reduction in the inflation rate.Probably all economists now agree with the monetarist propositions that rapid money growth tends to be inflationary and inflation cannot be kept low unless money growth is kept low. We also know that monetary policy has long and variable lags. But other monetarist positions remain more controversial, including those that suggest that the economy is inherently stable and that monetary targets are better than interest rate targets. The rational expectations approach can be seen as an extension of the monetarist approach, with a strong belief that markets clear rapidly395and people use all information available to them. This is why they advocate policy rules rather than discretion and place emphasis on the credibility of policy makers. Box 19-6 highlights the rational expectations approach.Any government that is unwilling to show fiscal restraint will ultimately be faced with excessive money growth and an increase in the inflation rate. Continued large government budget deficits create a policy dilemma for a central bank, which must decide whether to monetize the debt. If the central bank decides not to finance the debt, the increased borrowing needs of the government may drive interest rates up, leading to the crowding out of private spending. The central bank may then be blamed for slowing down economic growth. But if the central bank is worried about high interest rates and monetizes the debt in order to keep interest rates low, inflation may increase with the central bank taking the blame.The financing of government spending through the creation of high-powered money is an alternative to explicit taxation. Inflation acts like a tax since the government can spend more by printing money while people can spend less, since some of their income must be used to increase their nominal money holdings. The inflation tax revenue is defined as:inflation tax revenue = (inflation rate)*(the real money base).The ability of the government to raise additional tax revenue through the creation of money (and therefore inflation) is called seigniorage, and Table 19-7 shows some empirical evidence of the inflation tax revenue raised as percentage of GDP for some Latin American countries. However, there is a limit to how much revenue a government can raise through an inflation tax. As inflation increases, people reduce their currency holdings and banks reduce their excess reserves, since holding money becomes more costly. Eventually the real monetary base falls so much that the government's inflation tax revenue decreases. Figure 19-3 shows this graphically.While higher deficits can cause higher inflation if they are financed through money creation, higher inflation may also contribute to deficits, since inflation reduces the real value of tax payments. In addition, high nominal interest rates (caused by high inflation) raise the nominal interest payments the government must make on the national debt. The inflation-adjusted deficit corrects for that and is defined in the following way:inflation-adjusted deficit = total deficit - (inflation rate)*(national debt).Large government budget deficits and rapid monetary expansion seem to be inevitable parts of hyperinflation. The high rate of monetary expansion originates in the government's desire to raise its inflation tax revenue. However, the government can only be successful if it prints money faster than the public anticipates. Eventually, the process will break down, as the real money base becomes smaller and smaller.During the 1980s, the U.S. experienced very large budget deficits, which were temporarily brought under control in the late 1990s, only to increase sharply again in 2002. Figure 19-4 shows the trend in U.S. budget deficits as percentage of GDP, while Tables 19-8 and 19-9 give an overview of trends in the U.S. government's outlays and revenues. It is interesting to note that entitlements and interest payments on the national debt have increased significantly over the last396four decades. On the revenue side, corporate income taxes as a share of GDP have declined, while social insurance taxes have increased substantially.To highlight the role of the national debt in the budget, it is useful to distinguish between the actual budget deficit and the primary (non-interest) budget deficit. The U.S. budget deficits in the 1990s were actually more a result of high interest payments on the previously incurred debt than of government spending exceeding tax revenues. This is the legacy of past deficits. As the national debt accumulates, its interest costs accelerate, contributing even more to the budget deficit. The national debt is the result of all past and present budget deficits, and the process by which the Treasury finances the debt is called debt management. As old government securities mature, the Treasury issues new securities to make the payments on old ones.Robert Eisner has argued that it is important to recognize that the government has assets and not just debts. Any spending on infrastructure should be treated as accumulation of real capital and offset by the debt issued to pay for it. In other words, just like private spending, government expenditures should be separated into government “consumption” and government “investment.”With the U.S. gross national debt now exceeding $8.5 trillion (or over $28,000 per capita), it becomes important to consider its real burden. If individuals who hold government bonds consider an increase in government debt as an increase in their personal wealth, they will consume more and a lower share of GDP will be invested. This will lead to a lower rate of capital accumulation and slower future economic growth. Another concern is that foreigners hold a large part of the debt. Since the burden of future tax payments on this part of the debt (plus interest) will fall on U.S. taxpayers while the recipients of these payments will be foreigners, there will be a reduction in U.S. net wealth.High deficits cannot be sustained indefinitely, but as long as national income is growing faster than the national debt (implying a declining debt-income ratio), the potential for instability is fairly low. In the 1990s, there was widespread sentiment that government had grown too big and that sound fiscal policy had to be implemented. The fiscal restriction finally succeeded in turning the large budget deficits of the 1980s into budget surpluses in 1998. A debate quickly began among politicians about the best ways to put the surplus to use. Was it better to cut taxes, increase spending, or gradually pay off the national debt? The path chosen by the Bush administration was a massive tax cut, leading to renewed budget deficits in 2002.Another debate revolves around Social Security reform. There is increasing concern about the financial difficulties that the Social Security system will face in the near future. The system is financed to a large extent on a pay-as-you-go basis, with most of the earmarked taxes paid by current workers being used immediately to finance the Social Security benefits of current retirees. Such a transfer of resources from the young to the old can be accomplished if:• A growing population increases the ratio of workers to retirees. If population growth slows, however, then contributions have to be increased or benefits have to be cut.•High-income growth allows retirement benefits to be higher than past contributions, since the source of the benefits is the higher income of the younger generations. If income growth slows, however, then the system may face financing difficulties.•The political situation is favorable. A larger percentage of older people than younger people vote so the elderly can enforce the intergenerational transfer through the political system. But at some point, the young, who expect to receive lower benefits than their parents relative to their contributions, may refuse to support the system through their taxes.397While the Social Security system is often seen as a “forced savings system,” which makes sure that everyone accumulates some wealth for retirement, there is strong empirical evidence that the system actually reduces national saving due to its pay-as-you-go financing. The decline in saving reduces the rate of capital accumulation, which lowers productivity and future living standards.The Social Security trust fund actually has been growing as a result of the Social Security Reform of 1983, but current predictions are that the system will be bankrupt after 2045 when most of the baby-boomer generation will have retired. While most people do not wish to see the Social Security system totally abandoned, additional reforms are very likely in the near future. The central question is how to earn higher returns on the funds invested to prevent the system from insolvency and how to preserve equity for those who have already paid into the system. Suggestions for LecturingStudents who follow the news see stock prices fluctuate daily and they probably heard about past stock market bubbles and crashes. These students will be curious about the impact of major swings in stock market activity on the economy. Most people assume that the stock market crash of October, 1929 marked the beginning of the Great Depression and are not aware that economic activity had actually begun to decline earlier. A good way to introduce the material in this chapter is to ask: “Could a Great Depression happen again?” or “Do stock market crashes cause economic downturns?” Either will lead to a lively class discussion that can help to highlight several of the issues raised in the chapter. In this discussion the major stock market crash of October, 1987 and the decline in (especially high-tech) stock values that started in March, 2000 will undoubtedly come up. They are reminders that stock market bubbles will always eventually burst and that there is considerable risk associated with buying stocks.Most economists now agree that the magnitude of the Great Depression was exacerbated by inadequate fiscal and monetary policy responses. The Fed’s failure to inject e nough liquidity into the banking system to prevent failures led to a severe contraction in the supply of money and an economic downturn, and. Policy makers also did little initially to stimulate economic activity through fiscal policy. The severity of the economic situation in the 1930’s is not surprising to economists today, as no well-developed economic theory existed at the time that could deal with a disturbance of this magnitude. It was not until John Maynard Keynes offered an explanation of what had happened during the Great Depression and suggested ways to prevent future recessions that macroeconomists began to ponder the values of fiscal and monetary stabilization policies. It is no wonder that Keynes is seen by many as the “father of all macroeconomists.”Economic theories are generally pro ducts of their time and, as mentioned above, Keynes’macroeconomic theory was developed as a result of the Great Depression. His explanation and prescription for preventing future depressions were widely accepted, but did not have much impact on policy making in the U.S. until the 1960s, when the government followed (mostly fiscal) activist policies to ensure full employment.The handling of the major stock market crash of 1987 appears to indicate that policy makers have learned from past mistakes. Stock values dropped by more than 24% in October of 1987, but we did we not see a severe downturn in economic activity. Why not? For one, Alan398Greenspan, who had been appointed as chair of the Board of Governors of the Fed only a few months earlier, was conscious of what had happened in 1929 and immediately assured financial markets that the Fed would provide the liquidity needed to prevent a financial collapse. The Fed quickly started to undertake open market purchases in an effort to drive interest rates down. In addition, as a result of institutional changes implemented after the Great Depression, government now has a much larger role in the economy. Students should be aware that the Great Depression not only shaped modern macroeconomic thinking and approaches to stabilization policy, but also shaped the structure of many U.S. institutions. Instructors may want to spend some time talking about these institutions and their importance to our economy.It also should be noted that the economy was in much better shape when the stock market crashed in 1987 than it was in 1929. While we can only speculate on what would have happened had the economy been in worse shape, the existence of programs such as Social Security and unemployment insurance would have dampened the severity of a downturn by providing some automatic stability. In addition, the existence of the FDIC, which insures all bank deposits up to $100,000, now serves to avoid panic in financial markets and runs on banks.The recession in 1981/82, which was the most severe recession since the Great Depression and brought the unemployment level close to 11%, provides another good example that policy makers now react much more swiftly to major economic upheavals. Even though the recession was fairly severe, it did not last for an extended period, since expansionary policies were implemented almost immediately after the magnitude of the downturn became clear.There are still disagreements about the primary causes for the Great Depression and these should be clarified. The Keynesian explanation concentrates on spending behavior, that is, the reduction in consumption and the collapse of investment. The decrease in aggregate demand was exacerbated by the restrictive fiscal policy implemented by the government trying to balance the budget. The monetarist explanation concentrates on the behavior of money and asserts that the Fed failed to prevent the collapse of the banking system. The large number of bank failures led to a loss of confidence in the banking system, an enormous increase in the currency-deposit ratio, and therefore a huge decrease in the money multiplier. Monetarists see the resulting severe decline in money supply as the cause of the Great Depression. Both explanations fit the facts and it is important for instructors to point out that there is no inherent conflict between them; in fact, they complement one another.While the programs of the New Deal are largely credited with revitalizing the economy in the mid-1930s, probably one of the most important factors was the sharp increase in money supply, starting in 1933. This is often a forgotten fact. It should be noted that while unemployment remained high, the deflation of prices and wages stopped after 1933, and output began to rebound. In addition, some of the programs implemented by the government after the Great Depression helped to keep wages from falling further.The fact that unemployment’s downward pressure on wages tends to weaken if high unemployment is persistent should also be mentioned at this point. The possibility that the behavior of nominal wages affects the rate of inflation should be discussed with reference to the situation in some European countries, where the unemployment rate has been above the levels experienced in the U.S. for quite some time.The German hyperinflation of 1922-23, when the inflation rate averaged 322% per month, provides another example of a major economic event that shaped macroeconomic thinking. But399students will probably prefer to discuss more recent examples, such as the Bolivian experience of the 1980s highlighted in Box 19-4 or the situation in Zimbabwe starting in 2006. Both cases make clear that the cost of stopping hyperinflation can be extremely high in terms of a decreased standard of living. The discussion should make it clear that large budget deficits and rapid monetary growth are always prevalent in times of hyperinflation, and only draconian measures can ensure a reduction in inflationary expectations. Without such measures the economy will collapse and has to be completely restructured, with the introduction of a new monetary unit that may be pegged to a foreign exchange rate.There is no exact definition of hyperinflation, but it is said to exist when the inflation rate reaches 1,000% on an annual basis. Students will always remember the following definition of inflation in general: “inflation is nothing more than too much money chasing too few goods.” But is inflation “always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon,” as Milton Friedman put it? Figure 19-1 indicates that the rate of inflation and the growth rate of M2 show somewhat similar long-run trends (at least until about 1993), but there are large variations in the short run. In other words, the link between monetary growth and the inflation rate is by no means precise. For one, growth in output affects the inflation rate and real money holdings. Interest rate changes and financial innovations also affect desired money holdings and therefore the income velocity of money. Empirical evidence indicates that the velocity of M2 has shown a fairly constant long-run trend from the 1960s to the 1990s, while the velocity of M1 has fluctuated significantly over the last few decades. Considering the enormous changes that took place in the U.S. banking system in the 1980s, it is surprising that the income velocity of M2 actually stayed as stable as it did. By the late 1990s, the link between M2 growth and the inflation rate had largely broken down; the possible causes and any monetary policy implications should be discussed.By now, students should be familiar with the quantity theory of money equation and should be able to derive the equation that shows the long-run relationship between money growth, output growth, velocity changes, and the rate of inflation. We can thus derive the following:MV = PY ==> %∆M + %∆V = %∆P + %∆Y ==> %∆P = %∆M - %∆Y + %∆V==> π = m - y + v.This equation indicates that higher growth rates of money (%∆M = m) adjusted for growth in output (%∆Y = y) and changes in velocity (%∆V = v) are associated with higher inflation rates (%∆P = π). The strict monetary growth rule is based on this equation and suggests that a zero inflation rate can be achieved if money supply is only allowed to grow at the same rate as the long-run trend of output, assuming that velocity remains stable. It should be made clear, that this equation shows only a long-run relationship and that output growth and velocity can be highly variable in the short run, causing great variations in the inflation rate.Besides looking at the role of monetary growth in determining the inflation rate, instructors may also want to spend some time looking at the role of nominal wages and labor productivity. Just by recalling the simple equationw = W/P,400。

宏观经济学课后题答案
第1章宏观经济学导论:习题答案一、名词解释1.宏观经济学〔Macroeconomics〕,也叫做总量经济学,它是通过对整个社会经济总量决定及其变化的科学研究,来提醒和描述稀缺资源配置、国民收入变化以及宏观经济增长和开展规律的科学。
其研究所涉及的主要容是整个社会的价格水平、总产量、就业水平和其他经济总量的决定。
2.凯恩斯学派(Keynesian)是最初由凯恩斯等人开创的、二战以后在欧美等兴旺国家开展起来、并迅速得到世界上大多数市场经济国家认可与推崇的宏观经济学学派。
凯恩斯开创的宏观经济理论在20世纪五六十年代的美国获得最大开展。
主要代表有凯恩斯、保罗·萨缪尔森〔Paul A.Samuelson〕、詹姆斯·托宾〔James Tobin〕、罗伯特·索洛〔Robert Solow〕等。
3.理性预期学派〔Rational E*pectation School〕是在1970年代在美国出现的一个经济学流派。
相对"适应性预期〞而言,理性预期是指人们预先充分掌握了一切可以利用的信息做出的预期。

一、商业周期波动.商业周期商业周期是国民总产出、总收入、总就业量的波动,持续时间通常为~年,它以大多数经济部门的扩张或收缩为标志。
产出、通货膨胀率、利率和就业的波动构成了商业周期,商业周期是所有市场经济的共同特征。
.商业周期的特点经济学家们一般将商业周期划分成两个主要阶段,即衰退和扩张。
“峰”和“谷”代表的是周期的转折点。
图显示了商业周期先后继起的各个阶段。
衰退是商业周期的下降期,一般图商业周期定义是实际至少连续两个季度下降,以经济中许多部门广泛的紧缩为标志。
萧条指的是规模广且持续时间长的衰退。
商业周期的形式是不规则的,没有两个完全相同的商业周期,也没有精确公式可用来预测商业周期的发生日期和持续时间。
商业周期是经济活动的不规则的扩张和收缩。
.商业周期中经济衰退的普遍特征()通常,投资在衰退中急剧下降。
由于金融危机和美联储提高利率以降低通货膨胀率,房地产价格首先开始下降。
消费者购买也会急剧下降。
由于厂商会对此做出压缩产量的反应,所以实际会下降。
()就业通常在衰退初期就会急剧下降。
但其恢复有时却要慢于经济,即所谓的“没有就业机会的复苏”。
()产出下降,导致通货膨胀步伐放慢。
对原材料的需求下降,导致其价格跌落。
工资和服务的价格下降的可能性比较小,但在经济衰退期它们的增长趋势会放慢。
()企业利润在衰退中急剧下滑。
由于预期到这种情况,普通股票的价格一般都会下跌。
同时,由于对贷款的需求减少,利率在衰退时期一般也会下降。
宏观经济学威廉森答案
宏观经济学威廉森答案1 宏观经济学(Macroeconomics)宏观经济学是研究经济发展,尤其是经济政策及其影响方面的学科。
它讨论了国民经济、宏观经济政策、国际贸易、货币政策、财政政策和宏观经济分析等主题。
宏观经济学的研究者经常意在探讨如何促进持续的经济增长和繁荣以及改善国家的国民收入水平,以及资本、人力资本、技术和自然资源等如何增加生产效率。
2 威廉森(Williamson)威廉森是20世纪末知名的经济学家,他对宏观经济学做出重大贡献,推导了克莱顿-史密斯(Coulson-Smith)经济模型、威廉森N条折现,以及威廉森宏测试和宏周期理论,并且在宏观经济思想有着重要影响。
威廉森的理论强调的是经济的动态性,将动态分析应用于稳定的经济现象;他的主要理论概念是威廉森宏测试,该系统密切研究多次估量的结果,检测实际观测值是否具有投资性和现代货币性。
3 重要理论威廉森将宏观经济学——国民经济统计和经济模型——结合到一起,发展出了一种新的方法——威廉森宏测试,该方法用来量化超过数个季度展开的经济变量,根据动态视角研究经济波动;他还推导了威廉森N条折现(Williamson N-discount factor),它是一种金融工具,用来度量未来相当于现在投资的潜力;威廉森宏周期理论则是用来衡量短期内的经济起伏的技术,他认为经济波动往往可以被分解为“指数”和“震荡”,而且他对传统宏观经济学的理论框架也进行了重大更新:他将宏观经济中的“财政政策”和“货币政策”视为一个整体,使它们具备了更大的可能性。
4 对其他经济学家的开拓威廉森的思想和理论为经济研究开创了先河,大大推动了宏观经济学的发展。
他继承并发展了许多古典经济学家的理论基础,强调动态分析,充分发挥了宏观经济学的生物效应和科学方法;同时他也与其他经济学家一起发展,如范一夫、汤普森、埃希尔、梅西斯等等,他们推动了宏观经济学多学科交叉研究,共同推动经济学前进。
5 总结威廉森是世界著名经济学家,他的宏观经济学理论和方法对宏观经济学的发展起到了重要的推动作用。

A Macroeconomics Theory of the Open Economy
• Key Macroeconomic Variables in an Open Economy
– The important macroeconomic variables of an open economy include: – net exports – net foreign investment – nominal exchange rates – real exchange rates

SUPPLY AND DEMAND FOR LOANABLE FUNDS AND FOR FOREIGN-CURRENCY EXCHANGE
• The Market for Loanable Funds
S = I + NCO
• At the equilibrium interest rate, the amount that people want to save exactly balances the desired quantities of investment and net capital outflows.

The Market for Foreign-Currency Exchange
• The real exchange rate adjusts to balance the supply and demand for ringgit. • At the equilibrium real exchange rate, the demand for ringgit to buy net exports exactly balances the supply of ringgit to be exchanged into foreign currency to buy assets abroad.
© 2007 Thomson South-Western
The Market for Loanable Funds
• The supply of loanable funds comes from national saving (S). • The demand for loanable funds comes from domestic investment (I) and net capital outflows (NCO).
• Prices in the loanable funds market and the foreign-currency exchange market adjust simultaneously to balance supply and demand in these two markets. • As they do, they determine the macroeconomic variables of national saving, domestic investment, net foreign investment, and net exports.
– The key determinant of net capital outflow is the real interest rate.

The Market for Foreign-Currency Exchange
• The price that balances the supply and demand for foreign-currency is the real exchange rate.

Simultaneous Equilibrium in Two Markets

The Market for Foreign-Currency Exchange
• The demand curve for foreign currency is downward sloping because a higher exchange rate makes domestic goods more expensive. • The supply curve is vertical because the quantity of ringgit supplied for net capital outflow is unrelated to the real exchange rate.
© 2007 Thomson South-Western
The Market for Loanable Funds
• The supply and demand for loanable funds depend on the real interest rate. • A higher real interest rate encourages people to save and raises the quantity of loanable funds supplied. • The interest rate adjusts to bring the supply and demand for loanable funds into balance.
© 2007 Thomson South-Western
The Market for Foreign-Currency Exchange
• In the market for foreign-currency exchange, ringgit are traded for foreign currencies. • For an economy as a whole, NCO and NX must balance, or: NCO = NX

A Macroeconomics Theory of the Open Economy
• Basic Assumptions of a Macroeconomic Model of an Open Economy
– The model takes the economy’s GDP as given. – The model takes the economy’s price level as given.
