** The figures in the margin indicate full marks for the questions
** Answer five questions, selecting at least one from each Credit

Credit I :
1. What are the different measures of money supply in India? Derive the money multiplier and state its determinants. (3+9+3)
2. Critically discuss Tobin’s theory of speculative demand for money. How does it differ from Baumol’s Theory? (12+3)

Credit II :
3. Should monetary and fiscal policy makers try to stabilize the economy? Discuss. (15)
4. ‘The theory of inflation is incomplete without considering the dynamic role of factor gap’. Analyze. (15)

Credit III :
5. Define the concepts of the accelerator and the multiplier. Give a critical explanation of the multiplier-accelerator interaction as given by Samuelson in his theory. (3+12)
6. Show how the Hicksian Theory sets up the business cycle through the interaction between the multiplier and the accelerator around a progressing equilibrium path. (15)

Credit IV :
7. Give a critical evaluation of Duesenberry’s model of equilibrium growth rates. (15)
8. Give a detailed analysis of Kalecki’s theory of aggregative income distribution as an attempt to explain the share of wages in national income. (15)

Macroeconomic Analysis II 2012 :
CREDIT I :
1. “Baumol’s approach to the transaction demand for money is a significant improvement over the Keynesian theory of transaction demand for money.” Discuss (15)
2. Derive the money multiplier when there is presence of demand deposit as well as demand deposit and time deposit. Also mention the determinants of money multiplier. (10+5)

CREDIT II :
3. Discuss the concept of full inflation. Also discuss the Bent Hansen’s model of full demand inflation. (5+10)
4. Discuss the major issues related to macroeconomic policy in India and critically evaluate the major ongoing debates. (15)

CREDIT III :
5. Explain the role played by the multiplier, the accelerator and the natural rate of growth of income in the Hicksian theory of trade cycle. (15)
6. Give a critical assessment of the Schumpeter’s theory of business cycle. (15)

CREDIT IV :
7. Give a detailed explanation of Duesenberry’s model in determining the equilibrium rates of growth as a function of the capital-output ratio. (15)
8. Explain critically Weintraub’s income distribution model in relation to the aggregate demand and the aggregate supply functions. (15)
