Topic: Automatic stabiliser


In the News (Sun 27 Dec 09)

  
  Stabilisation policy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A stabilisation policy is a package or set of measures introduced to stabilise a financial system or economy.
Stabilisation can refer to correcting the normal behaviour of the business cycle.
This type of stabilisation can be painful, in the short term, for the economy concerned because of lower output and higher unemployment.

 Automatic stabiliser - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In macroeconomics automatic stabilisers work as a tool to dampen fluctuations in real GDP without any explicit policy action by the government.
There is broad consensus amongst economists that the automatic stabilisers often exist and function in the short term.
This example shows us how the multplier is lessened by the existence of an automatic stabiliser, and thus helping to lessen the fluctuations in real GDP as a result from changes in expenditure.

 Canada's Unemployment Insurance Program as an Economic Stabiliser - May 1995   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The purpose of this brief is to report on the empirical findings relating to the role of UI as an automatic stabiliser in the Canadian economy and how this role might have changed over time.
For an analysis and quantitative evaluation of the stabilisation impact, it is necessary to use a general equilibrium macroeconometric model to take account of all interrelationships and interactions in the economy.
If the stabilisation impact is considered over a longer time span, 1981-1989, the estimated reduction in the GDP gap falls in the range of 8 to 11 percent.

Automatic stabilisers are revenue and expenditure items of the budget that vary counter-cyclically with the income or spending of citizens and thus add to their disposable income in recessions and reduce it in booms.
The fiscal philosophy of the SGP and BEPG endorses ‘rule-based’ as opposed to discretionary macroeconomic stabilisation.
Automatic stabilisers incorporate tax and social security commitments, but to the extent that governments embrace the Lisbon Agenda these commitments are subject to change: much of the welfare reform/ labour market flexibilisation agenda advocates reneging on some of these commitments.

 Constant voltage transformer or voltage stabiliser: News from Advance Electronics
Moreover, because automatic voltage stabilisers feature a low impedance, they help ensure clean motor starts, a characteristic that makes them ideal for situations where motor reliability and performance are of paramount importance.
However, many automatic voltage stabilisers will feature a factory programmable stabilisation factor, which will instruct the unit to wait for a specific period for the input voltage to become continuous after a break in the mains supply.
This makes a voltage stabiliser ideal for domestic and office duties, or in circumstances where portability is essential, such as in field hospitals and the like.

 Self-test Questions
A good deal of stabilisation using fiscal policy comes automatically; as incomes fall in a recession, fewer taxes are collected, and yet government expenditures rise due to increased social payments such as unemployment insurance.
Monetary policy is useful for stabilisation since it can be changed quickly and relatively easily, while changing fiscal policy is usually a time-consuming and highly political process; nevertheless, fiscal policy is very useful for stabilisation due its so-called automatic stabiliser effect.
In order to leave room for the automatic stabilizers to play their role, the pact also stipulates that participants in the monetary union which commit themselves to a medium-term budgetary stance are _______.

 Mechanics of economics
e) An automatic stabiliser in respect of fiscal policy occurs when the government sector of the economy acts independently of discretionary (deliberate) government economic policy to reduce fluctuations in the business or trade cycle.
PSBR rises as an automatic response to the fall in economic activity rather than because of any deliberate change in government economic policy.
Automatic stabilisers, therefore, even out fluctuations across the economic cycle keeping an economy from the extremes of deep recession and unchecked boom.

While the re-emergence of partisan politics on Capitol Hill may delay budgetary loosening in the US, the growing and increasingly open exasperation of Euroland politicians with the policy conduct of the ECB greatly enhances the risks of markets having to deal with a bout of irresponsible budget-making.
Fiscal policy is a natural automatic stabiliser and with growth weakening we should be expecting deteriorating budget outturns.
However, should such natural cyclical developments be augmented by a structural loosening of policy, the long-term budgetary outlook will become far less attractive to the eye.

 OECD Observer: Fiscal policy in the U.S.: Lessons from 2001
This is partly because of the serious events of 2001 that reminded us of the value of government, but it is also due to the recession, which has highlighted government’s role in stabilising market economies.
Aided by the smooth workings of automatic stabiliser mechanisms such as the progressive income tax, the huge on-budget surplus disappeared.

 Line Interactive Uninterruptible Power Supplies - UPS Guide
The load is supplied by the incoming mains supply which is filtered and stabilised using the automatic voltage regulation device; whilst the inverter remains switched off (provided that the input window is not exceeded).
These disturbances will not be completely prevented from passing through to the load and any large voltage spikes or transients that may exceed the input voltage window will cause the UPS to switch on the inverter.
The output from the UPS is maintained to within a specific window; therefore the UPS will automatically adjust the transformer tap settings dependant on the incoming mains supply voltage.

 BBC NEWS | Politics | Full text of Letwin speech
And, as the present Chancellor rightly observes, if this automatic stabiliser is to be consistent with market confidence, it has to be based on a medium term policy of sound public finances.
If money is to be injected into the economy during a slow-down, the markets need to know that the Treasury has done its housekeeping sufficiently well the rest of the time to provide that money when it is needed without throwing the public finances into disorder.
Observance of these rules is meant to be a guarantee of good housekeeping sufficiently strong to ensure that, when the stabilisers are called into action, the public finances remain in good order.

 EPA abstract
Second, from the demand equation, they estimate the extent to which new supply can act as an 'automatic stabiliser' on property values.
It is argued that although increases in demand drive up property values, new development is also initiated and will, in turn, dampen down the growth in real capital values.
Estimates of the stabiliser effect are also plausible and, taken together, the supply-side parameters help provide insights required in understanding property market dynamics in the last twenty-five years.
