How does the Large Open Economy differ from the Small Open Economy?
|
Interest rates (r) are not fixed in the Large Open Economy.
|
|
What are the three equations in the LOE model?
|
Y = C(Y-T) + I(r) + G + NX(e)
M/P = L(r, Y) NX(e) = CF(r) |
|
What are the two equations for IS-LM in the LOE model and how do you go from three LOE equations to two?
|
IS:
Y = C(Y-T) + I(r) + G + CF(r) LM: M/P = L(r, Y) You go from two to three by substituting CF(r) for NX(e) in the first equation. |
|
Why do expenditures rely on interest rate (r)?
|
1. an increase in interest rate (r) leads to a decrease in investments (I).
2. An increase in interest rates (r) leads to a decrease in net exports (NX). |
|
Why is the IS curve flatter for a LOE than a SOE?
|
The net capital outflow function flattens the curve. The more responsive the international capital outflows are to the interest rate, the flatter the IS curve.
|
|
How does fiscal policy influence the IS-LM model?
|
Fiscal policies shift the IS curve and fiscal policies affect consumption
|
|
"Beggar thy neighbors"
|
Raising the money supply because it weakens foreign currencies.
|
|
how does Monetary policy influence the IS-LM model?
|
Monetary policy shifts the LM curve because it affects the money supply.
|
|
What does increases monetary base (M) doe?
|
Raises output, which raises consumption. It also reduces interest rates, which increases investments.
|
|
How would restricting imports in a LOE affect the economy?
|
1. If exchange rates are fixed, NX(e) shifts right.
2. If exchange rates are not fixed, the demand for dollars increases and appreciates the exchange rate. |
