University ECON 214 Problem
Set 6 solutions answers right
1) Why
is it possible to change real economic factors in the short run simply by
printing and distributing more money?
2) Explain
why a stable 5% inflation rate can be preferable to one that averages 4% but
varies between 1–7% regularly.
3) Explain
the difference between active and passive monetary policy.
4) Suppose
the economy is in long-run equilibrium, with real GDP at $16 trillion and the
unemployment rate at 5%. Now assume that the central bank unexpectedly decreases the money supply by 6%.
a. Illustrate
the short run effects on the macro-economy by using the aggregate
supply-aggregate demand model. Be sure to indicate the direction of change in
Real GDP, the Price Level and the Unemployment Rate. Label all curves and axis
