Consider the following IS-LM Model
C = 200 + 0.25Yd
I = 150 + 0.25Y - 1000i
G = 250
T = 200
(M/P)^d = 2Y - 8000i
M/P = 1600
a) Derive the IS relation (Hint: You want an equation with Y on the left side and everything else on the right.)
b) Derive the LM relation (Hint: It will be convenient for later use to rewrite this rquation with the interest rate on the left side and everything else on the right.)
c) Solve for equilibrium real output. (Hint: Substitute the expression for the interest rate given by the LM equation into the IS equation and solve for output.)
d) Solve for the equilibrium interest rate. (Hint: Substitute the value you obtained for Y in part c into either the IS or LM equations and solve for i. If your algebra is correct, you should get the same answer from both equations.)
e) Solve for the equilibrium values of C and I, and verify the value you obtained for Y by adding C, I, and G.
f) Now suppose that the money supply increases to M/P = 1840. Solve for Y, I, C, and i, and describe in words the effect of an expansionary monetary policy.
g) Set M/P equal to its initial value of 1600. Now suppose that the government spending increases to G = 40. Summarize the effects if an expansionary fiscal policy on Y, interest rate and C.
Any help would be great, thanks!
