Now, you are expected to write a report for the new administration. In this report, you will summarize your macroeconomic policy decisions and explain the economic outcomes for Econland. The purpose of this report is to share the lessons you’ve learned over your term and promote sound macroeconomic decision making moving forward.First, assemble the materials that you will need to complete this assignment:Access the Macroeconomics Simulation: Econland from Harvard Business Publishing and select either the Rollercoaster or Stagnation scenario. Once you have completed the final year of your seven-year term, view the final reports under the Dashboard and Reports tabs at the top of the webpage. You will use these charts, graphs, and other visualizations from your report in the indicated areas of the template (for example, Table 1). Contact your instructor if you have any questions about accessing these resources.Review and use the Project Template document located in the What to Submit section.Your report's cover page, Table of Contents, and "Introduction" section should remain standard in all submissions except where indicated in the template. Read the brief "Introduction" section, which describes the purpose and structure of the deliverable, and add the high-level descriptions where prompted.There are placeholders in the template for your data visualizations (for example, charts, graphs, and tables). They provide a rough approximation of where the visualizations should be placed. Replace these placeholders with the appropriate images in each case. To create an isolated image from the simulation data, use a snipping tool or other image-editing software to copy and paste your data visualizations into the template. See the tutorials in the Supporting Materials section for more information.Reference any source material in your report with appropriate citations. A references page has been added to the project template with the citation for the textbook. Any additional references should also be cited according to APA format.DirectionsOnce you have assembled the required materials listed above, draft your economic summary report by completing the following steps:The first section of your report is the introduction. Add information related to your term as the chief economic policy advisor for the nation of Econland. Follow the instructions in the template, including adding Table 3 from your simulation report to the indicated area of the template (Table 1). Then, add a two- to three-sentence summary of your scenario and your overall performance and approval rating.Taxation Policies: In the "Fiscal Policies: Taxation" section of your report, discuss the taxation policies of Econland for the public and your successor. Add an image of Table 1 from your simulation report to the indicated area of the template (Table 2).

What were the macroeconomic principles or models that influenced your decision making?Identify the impact of your changes to the income and corporate tax rates. How were consumption and investment affected by your tax-policy decisions? Explain these dynamics using specific macroeconomic principles from the course reading.Compare and contrast the impact of your tax policy decisions with those of current or historical examples in the United States. What do these examples demonstrate about the validity of macroeconomic models? Be sure to cite your research appropriately. (See the Supporting Materials section for assistance with APA style.)Government Spending: In your report's "Fiscal Policies: Government Expenditure" section, discuss Econland's government spending policies for the public and your successor. Add an image of the “Real GDP Growth” and “Unemployment Rate” graphs from your simulation results and use an aggregate demand and aggregate supply (AD/AS) model to the indicated area of the template (Figures 1 and 2). Images of the AD/AS model can be found in the course textbook or any reputable online source. Then, address the following in the paragraphs below the figures:Explain your decision making regarding government expenditure and how it changed based on the macroeconomic conditions. What was the intent of your fiscal policy decisions in response to the given economic climate?Evaluate your fiscal policy decisions, including how they impacted key macroeconomic factors such as real GDP growth and unemployment.

Provide specific examples to help illustrate.Compare and contrast the impact of your monetary policies with those of current or historical examples in the United States. What do these examples demonstrate about the validity of macroeconomic models? Be sure to cite your research appropriately. (See the Supporting Materials section for assistance with APA style.)Global Context: In the "Global Context: section of your report, expand your discussion to consider the wider global context. Analyze the impacts of openness to trade in general. Why and how are the impacts of monetary and fiscal policies different in a closed economy versus an open economy?

Did your economic policy decisions produce the anticipated results? Did your macroeconomic principles and models behave how you expected?
