Suppose the economy is operating at the zero lower bound for the nominal policy rate, the economy is operating at potential output in period t, but there is a large government budget deficit. A newly elected government vows to cut spending and reduce the deficit in subsequent periods. Use an IS-MP-PC diagram to answer the following questions:
a. What is the effect of the policy on output in period t+1
b. What is the effect of the policy on inflation in period t+1
c. Discuss how to get out of liquidity in such a scenario
d. Discuss how fiscal consolidation will be difficult in such an environment

Wow, sounds like tough homework that someone online is trying to get people to pay for the solution for.
