Macro. Final Exam
The word “economy” comes from the Greek word oikonomos, which means

“one who manages a household”

Economics is defined as the study of

how society manages its scarce resources

Economics deals primarily with the concept of:

scarcity

Scarcity exists when

there is less of a good or resource available than people wish to have

In most societies, resources are allocated by

the combined actions of millions of households and firms

The adage, “There is no such thing as a free lunch,” is used to illustrate the principle that

people face tradeoffs

When the government implements welfare programs, which of the following is likely to occur?

equity is increased and efficiency is decreased

The opportunity cost of an item is

what you give up to get that item

Suppose after graduating from college you get a job working at a bank earning $30,000 per year. After t
wo years of working at the bank earning the same salary, you have an opportunity to enroll in a one-
year graduate program that would require you to quit your job at the bank. Which of the following shoul
d not be included in a calculation of your graduate program cost?

the $45,000 salary that you will be able to earn after having completed the program

A marginal change is a

small, incremental change

A construction company has built 50 houses so far this year at a total cost to the company of $8 million. 
If the company builds a 51st house, its total cost will increase to $8.18 million. Which of the following st
atements is correct?

all of the above

According to Adam Smith, the success of decentralized market economies is primarily due to

individuals’ pursuit of self-interest

The term “market failure” refers to
a situation in which the market on its own fails to allocate resources efficiently

Market failure can be cause by

externalities and market power

The fact that different countries experience different standards of living is largely explained by differenc
es in those countries’

productivity levels

To raise productivity, policymakers could

all of the above

Large or persistent inflation is almost always caused by

government printing too much money

The business cycle is the
irregular fluctuations in economic activity

Economists make assumptions

to make the world easier to understand

Just like models constructed in other areas of science, economic models

incorporate assumption that may contradict reality

The circular-flow diagram is a

visual model of how the economy is organized

The two loops in the circular-flow diagram represent the flow of

inputs and outputs and the flow of dollars

The production possibilities frontier is a

graph that shows the various combinations of output the economy can possibly produce given the availa
ble resources and technology

If a nation has an absolute advantage in the production of a good,

it can produce that good using fewer resources then its trading partner.

According to the principle of comparative advantage,

countries should specialize in the production of goods for which they have a lower opportunity cost of
production than their trading partners

Canada and the U.S. both produce wheat and computer software. Canada is said to have comparative
advantage in producing wheat if

the opportunity cost of producing a bushel of wheat is lower for Canada than it is for the U.S.

Which of the statements is true?
Use  the  data  provided  to  answer  this  and  the  following  question:

                                                Food                                    Electronics

Australia                      20                                                        5

Korea                                8                                                          4

Australia has an absolute advantage in the production of both food and electronics

Korea should

specialize in electronics production, export electronics, and import food

A market is a

group of demanders and suppliers of a particular good or service

If John receives an increase in his pay, we would expect

his demand for normal goods to increase

Suppose that scientists find evidence that proves chocolate pudding lowers cholesterol. We would expec
t to see

an increase in the demand for chocolate pudding

The law of supply clearly states that

an increase in price of the product leads to an increase in quantity supplied, other  things  equal

The law of demand clearly states that

an increase in price of the product leads to a decrease in quantity demanded, other  things  equal

Suppose you make gold jewelry. An increase in the price of gold will cause

supply of gold jewelry to decrease

What would happen to the equilibrium price and quantity of coffee if the wages of coffee-bean pickers f
ell and the price of tea fell?
price will fall and the effect on quantity is ambiguous

Which of the following is the correct definition of GDP?

none of the above are correct

Which of the following is not included in GDP?

vegetables grown in your garden

Which of the following is included in GDP?

medical marijuana purchased from a government-run pharmacy

The value of housing service provided by the economy’s stock of houses is

counted and is based on an estimate of its rental value

Over the last few decades Americans have chosen to cook less at home and eat more at restaurants. Thi
s change in behavior, by itself,

increased measured GDP

Which of the following transactions added to U.S. GDP in 2010?

your friend bought a new house which, according to reliable estimates, could be rented for $1,500 a mo
nth

An Italian company operates a pasta restaurant in San Francisco. The value of the output produced by th
is pasta restaurant is included in:

U.S. GDP only

The consumption component of GDP includes spending on:

durables, non-durables and services
Which of the following examples of household spending is categorized as investment rather than
consumption?

expenditures on new housing

Real GDP

evaluates current production at the prices that prevailed in some specific year in the past

When economists talk about growth in the economy, they measure that growth with the

percentage change in real GDP

Suppose GDP consists of wheat and rice. In 2002, 20 bushels of wheat are sold at $4 per bushel, and 10
bushels of rice are sold at $2 per bushel. If the price of wheat was $2 per bushel and the price of rice wa
s $1 per bushel in 2001, the base year, nominal 2002 GDP is

$100, real 2002 GDP is $50, and the GDP deflator is 200

If a country reported a nominal GDP of 85 billion in 2002 and 100 billion in 2001 and reported a GDP
deflator of 100 in 2002 and of 105 in 2001, then from 2001 to 2002 real output

and prices both fell

The term “inflation” is used to describe a situation in which

the overall level of prices in the economy is increasing

The CPI is a measure of the overall cost of

goods and services bought by a typical consumer

Suppose that the typical consumer basket consists of 10 bushels of peaches and 15 bushels of pecans an
d that the base year is 2000. What is the consumer price index for 2001?

Refer  to  the  table  below  to  answer  this  and  the  following  question:

year peaches pecans

2000 $11 per bushel $6 per bushel


2001 $9 per bushel $10 per bushel

120

What was the inflation rate in 2001?

20 percent

According to economic studies CPI

overstates inflation

An important difference between the GDP deflator and the consumer price index is that

the GDP deflator reflects the prices of all final goods and services produced domestically, whereas the
consumer price index reflects the prices of goods and services bought by a typical consumer

A nation’s standard of living is best measured by its

real GDP per  capita

A nation’s standard of living is determined by

productivity

Productivity

explains all of the differences across countries in the standard of living

Which of the following is a correct way to measure productivity?

divide output by the number of hours worked

Which of the following is the most important determinant of productivity in the US economy?

none of the above

The catch-up effect can help explain
the spectacular economic growth experienced by South Korea over the years 1960 to 1990

A government can encourage growth and, in the long run, raise the economy's standard of living by
encouraging

saving and investment

Institutions in the economy that help to match one person's saving with another person's investment ar
e collectively called the

financial system

The economy’s two most important financial markets are

the bond market and the stock market

Long-term bonds are generally

more risky than short-term bonds and so pay higher interest

Which of the following equations will always represent GDP in an open economy?

Y = C + I + G + NX

Supposed that in a closed economy GDP is equal to 11,000, taxes are equal to 1,500, consumption
equals 7,500 and government purchases equal 2,000. What is national saving?

1,500

Market for loanable funds

describes the financial system

Which of the following could explain an increase in the equilibrium interest rate and a decrease in the
equilibrium quantity of loanable funds?

the supply for loanable funds shifts left
In 1995 Congressperson Bill Archer proposed that the income tax be replaced with a consumption tax.
If his program had been passed, then today it is likely that the equilibrium interest rate

would be lower and the equilibrium quantity of loanable funds would be higher

Cyclical unemployment refers to

year-to-year fluctuations of unemployment around its natural rate

The natural unemployment rate includes

both frictional and structural unemployment

Compared to the United States, France has (typically) higher unemployment rates. The cause of much of
this difference seems to be attributable to

high France unemployment benefits

Unemployment rate equals:

(number of unemployed/labor force)*100

In the United States in recent years, the unemployment rate among teenagers (16-19 years of age) has b
een

greater than that of people ages 20 and over

Civilian labor force participation rate equals:

(labor force/adult population)*100

Economists use the word “money” to refer to

those assets regularly used to buy goods and services

The M1 money supply is composed of

currency, demand deposits, traveler’s checks, and other checkable accounts

The Federal Reserve
all of the above

At the Federal Reserve,

the nation’s monetary policy is made by the Federal Open Market Committee

To increase the supply of money the Fed may

lower the discount rate

In the 1970s in response to recessions caused by an increase in the price of oil, the central banks in man
y countries increased the money supply. The central banks might have done this by

purchasing bonds on the open market, which would have lowered the value of money

A problem that the Fed faces when it attempts to control the money supply is that

the Fed does not control the amount of money that households choose to hold as deposits in banks

If the current money supply is located at MS1,

there is no excess supply or excess demand if the value of money is 2

When the money supply curve shifts from MS1 to MS2,

the equilibrium price level increases

If inflation is higher then what was expected,

creditors receive a lower real interest rate than they had anticipated

Business cycles

are fluctuations in economic activity, such as employment and production

When we say that economic fluctuations are “irregular” we mean that

recessions do not occur at regular intervals
Below are pairs of GDP growth rates and unemployment rates. Economists would be shocked to see mo
st of these pairs in the U.S. with the exception of which?

3%; 5%

In 2001, U.S. was in recession. Which of the following things would you expect not to have happened?

increased investment spending

According to the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER), the latest recession started in:

December 2007 and ended in June 2009

National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) defines an economic expansion as:

a period between a trough and a peak

Most economists use the aggregate demand and aggregate supply model primarily to analyze

short-run fluctuations in the economy

Which of the following would cause the aggregate demand curve to shift from AD1 to AD2?

a stock market crash

If the economy is at point b, a policy to restore full employment would be

an increase in the money supply

Stagflation occurs when the economy experiences

rising prices and falling output.

Approximately what percentage of the world's economies experience scarcity?

100%

Guns and butter are used to represent the classic societal tradeoff between spending on
national defense and consumer goods

Which of the following can policy do?

all of the above

The "invisible hand" directs activity through

prices

In a market economy, who makes the decisions that guide most economic activity?

firms and households

One reason we need government, even in a market economy, is that

the invisible hand is not perfect

The historical rise in living standards of American workers is primarily a result of

the rise in American productivity

Economists make assumptions in order to

focus their thinking on the essence of the problem at hand

Which of the following statements about economic models is correct?

models assume away irrelevant details

In economics, capital refers to

buildings and machines used in the production process

The production possibilities frontier shifts outward when

the economy experiences economic growth

Belarus has a comparative advantage in the production of linen, but Russia has an absolute advanta
ge in the production of linen.  If these two countries decide to trade
Belarus should export linen to Russia

Pizza is a normal good if

the demand for pizza raises when income raises

Lead is an important input in the production of crystal.  If the price of lead decreases, then we would 
expect the supply of

crystal to increase

A weaker deamand together with a stronger supply would necessarily result in

a lower price

Suppose the number of buyers in a market increases and a technological advancement occurs also.  
What would we expect to happen in the market?

equilibrium quantity would increase, but the impact on equilibrium price would be ambiguous

When supply and demand both increase, equilibrium

price may increase, decrease, or remain unchanged

Gross Domestic Product includes all

legal goods and services, but it excludes illegal goods and services

Transfer payments are

not included in GDP because they are not payments for currently produced goods or services  

GDP is not a perfect measure of well-being; for example

all of the above

Most recently (1Q2016) the United States GDP has grown by about

0.5 percent per year
When the consumer price index rises, the typical family

has to spend more dollars to maintain the same standard of living

In the CPI, goods and services are weighted according to

how much consumers buy of each good or service

According to BLS' April 2016 report, over the last 12 months the United States CPI has increased/de
creased by about

1.1 percent per year

The 2015 US GDP per capita was approximately:

$57,000

Which of the following is the most important determinant of productivity in the US economy?

technology

The current (April 2016) unemployment rate stands at:

5.0%

The current (April 2016) civilian labor force participation rate stands at approximately:

62.8%
