Keynesian Monetary and Fiscal Policy

Keynesian Monetary and Fiscal Policy

Write not more than a four-page, doubled -spaced 12 sized Arial font report in which you detail the evolution and implementation of Keynesian Macroeconomic policies and your understanding from having read the final chapters on Fiscal and Monetary policies discussed in the textbook. Cite historical examples of effective Keynesian policies as they have been enacted -from the Great Depression and the Great 2007-09 Recession of the financial system.

Compare vs contrast why Keynesianism did not particularly work during the 70’s stagflation. Why do you think Keynesian policies proved not to be effective at the time and the economic reasoning behind this that vindicates Keynes.

Include at least 3 sources in your reaction paper outlined on a third ‘Works Cited” page-APA style.. Hint-think in terms of Keynesian spending to stimulate AD when the nation undergoes a short run fluctuation in GDP and employment due to the onset of a recession/depression or high inflation. Try to follow your reasoning logically in relation to what the fiscal policy tool-expansionary or contractionary aims at achieving in the macro economy in terms of FE levels of GDP and employment. You may use in—text citations or footnotes in your narrative. You might want to show graphically episodes of expansionary and contractionary fiscal or monetary policies to support your arguments via the Keynesian AD_AS Model

Requirements: 4 pages

Toyota Motor Corporation Research

Toyota Motor Corporation Research

I hope you remember, I worked with you on the Toyota Motor Corporation ResearchNow I want to finish it with you again.

First there are a couple adjustment need to be made:

1-The problem statement should not take that long it should be only 5-6 sentences.

2-The research is A Problem-Solution Analysis and should follow it criteria

3-There should be more profound title to the research.

Please make these adjustments before we continue.

Now we go to the Data Analysis Sections. Take your time on doing this because it the bulk of the research. The data analysis must include multiple of “Source Synthesis” (which I’ll give you an example of it) and multiple of visuals.

Then we go to the conclusion and the abstract. What I want to you to do is work on the data analysis first then when ever its done send it to me then work on the conclusion and the abstract. Also you will have 2 weeks to complete this research. However, I would like to have 3 pages draft SOONEST possible.

I’ll give an example of a completed Problem-Solution Analysis research to refer to if needed. if you have any questions or any request of extra information’s just message me.

Over the past year, the organization has received numerous negative reviews from patients and clients using the services at your chosen organization. Overall, the organization’s reputation in the community has suffered due to

  • poor quality of service,
  • lack of empathy of the care providers and administrative staff including biases in care,
  • difficulties in obtaining an open appointment or a bed space in the long-term care unit,
  • poor patient or client care management in terms of effective treatment, and
  • poor health outcomes for patients and clients who have received care from the organization.

Further, the employees are also struggling with burnout due to a heavy workload and poor management methods.

In the presentation, you must identify the key issues that are causing the negative survey results and then address the sequence of steps needed to create the organizational change necessary for improving the customer experience.

In your PowerPoint Presentation, address the following:

    • Explain the projected outcomes for each goal.
