(10 points)a. △GDP= $400b. △NNP=△GDP-△depreciation=$400-$50=$350c. △NI= △NNP - △sales taxes = $350 - $30 = $320d. △PI= △NI -△ retained earnings = $320 - $100 = $220e. △PDI= △PI-△personal income tax = $220 - $70 =$1502. (10 points) To a macroeconomist, saving occurs when a person’s income exceeds his consumpti on, while investment occurs when a person or firm purchases new capital, such as a house or bus iness equipment..a. When your family takes out a mortgage and buys a new house, that is investment, because it isa purchase of new capital.b. When you use your $200 paycheck to buy stock in AT&T, that is saving, because your income of $200 is not being spent on consumption goods.c. When your roommate earns $100 and deposits it in her account at a bank, that is saving, becau se the money is not spent on consumption goods.d. When you borrow $1,000 from a bank to buy a car to use in your pizza-delivery business, that i s investment, because the car is a capital good.3. (10 points) All factors, that affect AD at a given price level, can be categorized to four groups ac cording to which component of spending is most directly affect: (1)C, such as a tax cut/hike, a sto ck market boom/decline; (2) I, such as optimism/pessimism about the future, a fall/rise in interes t rates due to an increase/decrease in money supply; (3)G, such as greater/smaller spending on d efense or highway construction, (4)NX, such as a boom/recession overseas, an exchange-rate dep reciation/appreciation.According to the production factors, the long-run AS may change arising from the following four s ources which affect the natural rate of output: (1)K (physical capital or human capital ), such as th e increase of the number of machines or that of college degrees;(2)L, such as an increase in immi gration from abroad, the change of the natural rate of unemployment due to increasing minimum wage or the unemployment insurance system; (3)N (natural resources), such as a discovery of a new mineral deposit, good weather, a change in the availability of imported resources; (4)A, suc h as the advance of internet technology, other events that act like changes in technology.All these variables——K, L, N, A, shift the short-run AS curve too. Another important new variable that affect the short-r un AS is the change of expected price level. A decrease in the expected price raises the AS in the s hort-run.In the short-run, the continuing increase in money can raise GDP for that there is unexpected pric e level. However, in the long run, the AS curve is vertical, as people adjust their expected price lev els to the actual price level. so the increase of money which raise AD and price level but can not h ave the economy to grow continuously only by use of expansionary monetary policy.4. (15 points)e.a. If Chinese government decided it no longer wanted to buy U.S. assets, U.S. net capital outflow would increase, increasing the demand for loanable funds, as shown in the following figure. The r esult is a rise in U.S. interest rates, an increase in the quantity of U.S. saving (because of the highe r interest rate), and lower U.S. domestic investment.b. In the market for foreign exchange, the real exchange rate declines and the balance of trade in creases5. (15 points)a. When the stock market declines sharply, wealth declines, so the aggregate-demand curve shift s to the left, as shown in Figure 5a below. In the short run, the economy moves from point A to p oint B, as output declines and the price level declines. In the long run, the short-run aggregate-su pply curve shifts to the right to restore equilibrium at point C, with unchanged output and a lowe r price level compared to point A.Figure 5aFigure 5bb. When the federal government increases spending on national defense, the rise in government purchases shifts the aggregate-demand curve to the right, as shown in Figure 5b above. In the sh ort run, the economy moves from point A to point B, as output and the price level rise. In the long run, the short-run aggregate-supply curve shifts to the left to restore equilibrium at point C, with unchanged output and a higher price level compared to point A.c. When a technological improvement raises productivity, the long-run and short-run aggregate-s upply curves shift to the right, as shown Figure 5c below. The economy moves from point A to point B, as output rises and the price level declines.Figure 5cd. When a recession overseas causes foreigners to buy fewer U.S. goods, net exports decline, so t he aggregate-demand curve shifts to the left, as shown in Figure 5a above. The effects are similar with that in part a.e. The continuing increase in reserve ratio causes the decrease of money supply. So, the aggregat e-demand curve shifts to the left, as shown in Figure 5a above. The effects are similar with that in part a.6. (20 points)a. True. GDP in SNA is the market value of all final goods and services. As SNA does not include th e value of intermediate goods in GDP, there is no double counting in SNA. Of course, it is generall y inevitable in statistic practices.b. True. With the increase of the divorce rate, more and more housework originally done by wive s or husbands themselves are done by those who are not family members. These services make t he measured GDP larger.c. False. Full employment does not mean that the rate of unemployment is zero. Under full emplo yment, the frictional unemployment and structural unemployment may still stand.d. False. Even if the governmental policy be correct, the rate of unemployment could not be redu ced to zero. The frictional unemployment and structural unemployment can hardly be eliminated completely.e. False. Aggregate supply curve in the long run is different from that in the short run. The former is vertical and the latter slopes upward to the right.f. False. Increasing consumption and export may cause the economy to grow in the short run. But in the long-run, the growth of output lies on various production factors that determine the AS sid e of the economy.7. (20 points)a. A1=10, A2=8, A3=6.4, A4=, A5=10/(1-4/5)=50;B1=8, B2=6.4, B3=5.12, B4= , B5=(10*4/5)/(1-4/5)=40;C1=8, C2=6.4, C3=5.12, C4=, C5=(10*4/5)/(1-4/5)=40.b. Firstly, the increase of G and TR can make GDP grow, so doe the decrease of T. Secondly, the inc rease of G directly increase AD and hence the multiplier is 5, while both TR and T indirectly affect AD and the multipliers are -4 and 4 respectively.c. The effects of $10 million increase of private investment are same as that of G. As the increase of private investment is not due to the decline of the interest rate, it is identical to the increase of G, both of which directly affect AD.d. If the government implants balanced budget policy, for example, increasing G and T by $10 mil lion with TR unchanged, AD in the first round will increase $2 million (10-8=2), and the accumulat e increase of GDP is $10 million（50-40＝10）. Therefore, the total effect of expensive policy and contractive policy together on GDP unde r balanced budget become smaller.。
