AQA ECON4 June 23rd

What did everyone write for the 25 marker on how to reduce UK unemployment and on the effect of below target inflation?

I don't feel too well about how it went
**** you're my twin- I did the exact same questions - imma say my answer but you should know there is no right answer so calm down

context 2
supply side- training skills stop structural unemployment
evaluation- time lag , UK debts and EU referendum threatening AAA credit rating
Demand side - cut tax - stimulate demand consumer spending driver of econ growth but may not work as rational households may save knowing there will be a higher tax to pay in the future to finance these cuts
Demand side cut interest rate - but interest rates been 0.5% since 2009 etc can't be any lower and don't know if banks will pass it on
conclusion for demand side

essay 2
1effect on balance payment - worsen cause inflation below might seem as the uk being week place to invest therefore stop inward FDI UK benefits a lot from it 31198 jobs in 2014 alone
2 effects on gdp cheaper prices more dispable income more spending econ growth more demand
3 effect o employment good as cheaper price more disposable income more demand, therefore, greater demand for labour - however extreme deflation can have opposite effects , people might see prices are going down and wait so firms will push prices down at the expense of workers
4 increase inequality as increase in debt burden, therefore, uk debt more expensive therefore govt will need to cut more govt projects
conclusion
depends on magnitude and causes
