Money in a Partial Sticky Price Model (20 Points) For questions 4a-e below, use the following details: Suppose we have an economy with no investment today and no production tomorrow. Output is produced using labor only. The price level is partially sticky. Assume the following specific functional forms for the relevant equations:

Money in the Neoclassical Model (20 Points) For questions 3a-d below, use the following details: Consider the neoclassical model as augmented to include money in households’ utility function, as presented in class. The equations characterizing the equilibrium of the model are:

Consider the following class. public class Sorter    {    private Integer[] a;      public Sorter(Integer[] arr) { a = arr; }     private void swap(int i, int j)    { /* implementation not shown */ }     public void someSort(){        for (int i = 0; i < a.length - 1; i++)        {            Integer max = a[i];             int maxPos = i;             for (int j = i + 1; j < a.length; j++)                if (max.compareTo(a[j]) < 0)                    {                    max = a[j];                     maxPos = j;                 }                swap(i, maxPos);                 }    }} Answer the following 2 questions:  If an array of Integer contains the following elements, what would the array look like after the third pass of someSort, sorting from high to low?    89   42   -3   13   109  70   2 Determine the big-O worst-case runtime for this algorithm.

Scenario: A 60-year-old chronic alcoholic is admitted for confusion and tremors. He has a history of poor dietary intake. On exam, he has hyperactive reflexes and a positive Chvostek’s sign. His labs show: magnesium 1.0 mg/dL, calcium 7.8 mg/dL, potassium 3.2 mEq/L. The patient is at risk for seizures. Question: What is the most appropriate intervention for the nurse to anticipate at this time?

Assume that a period goes by, and there are no unexpected deposits or withdrawals, and the bank makes no additional loans. Calculate the return on assets and the return on equity. Verify that the return on equity equals one plus the leverage ratio times the return on assets

Which one is false about Monetary Policy In Practice?

Graphically analyze Stage 3 in the IS-LM-AD-AS Model as above.  (Use Desmos to answer this question.)

Scenario: A 50-year-old patient has been recovering from severe malnutrition. He has recently begun refeeding (increasing nutritional intake). He now complains of muscle weakness and tingling in his extremities. His breathing is shallow. Lab results reveal a phosphate level of 1.2 mg/dL. Question: Which provider order should the nurse anticipate to treat this electrolyte imbalance?  

Which one is false about Bank Runs?

Refer to the ArrayList implementation below:  public class ArrayList{   private Object[] elements;   private int currentSize;     public ArrayList()    {      final int INITIAL_SIZE = 10;      elements = new Object[INITIAL_SIZE];      currentSize = 0;   }     public int size() { return currentSize; }   . . .} Provide a removeLast method for the ArrayList implementation above that removes the last element. If the current size is more than 25 percent full, the method simply removes the last element. It shrinks the internal array by 50 percent when it is less than or equal to 25 percent full before removing the last element.   For example: If the current size is 5 (more than 25% of 10), the method removes the last element. If the current size is 2 (less than 25% of 10), the method reduces the array size by half(i.e. 5) and then removes the last element.
