Question 1: Goods and Financial Markets – Extended IS-LM
Problem Statement:
Consider a closed economy in the short run with the following behavioral equations:
- C = 400 + 0.5(Y – T)
- I = 200 + 0.1Y – 2000(r + x)
- G = 400
- T = 200 + 0.2Y
The Central Bank sets a real interest rate target of r = 0.05 and the initial risk premium is x = 0.03.
(a) Obtain the IS relation and calculate equilibrium
First, we simplify disposable income: YD = Y – (200 + 0.2Y) = 0.8Y – 200.
Substituting this back into the demand function:
