Imagine the U.S. economy is in long-run equilibrium. Then suppose the value of the U.S. dollar increases. At the same time. people in the U.S. revise their expectations so that the expected price level falls. We would expect that in the short-run O the price level will rise, and real GDP might rise, fall, or stay the same. O real GDP will rise and the price level might rise, fall, or stay the same. O the price level will fall, and real GDP might rise, fall, or stay the same. O real GDP will fall and the price level might rise, fall, or stay the same.

Policymakers who want to stabilize the economy must decide how much to change the money supply, government spending, or taxes. True or False: One of the reasons why it is difficult for policymakers to choose the appropriate strength of their actions is that the impact of a change in policy on aggregate demand is often too fast. O True O False The problem of time inconsistency applies to fiscal policy as well as to monetary policy. Suppose the government announced a reduction in taxes on income from capital investments, like new factories. If investors believed that capital taxes would remain low, the government's action would result in a larger/smaller After investors have responded to the announced tax reduction, the government can get more tax revenue by capital investments. capital stock. O True True or False: Given your answer to the previous part, investors would not believe the government's announcement. O False taxes on income from increasing/decreasing

Suppose you are chair of the Federal Reserve in 1995. You believe that potential output follows the dotted line after 1993, but in actuality, it follows the line denoted "True potential output." The current state of the economy is given by the curve "Actual output." Given the information in the figure, you _________, because you believe the economy is in a ________, but your advice instead OUTPUT O 1993 True potential output 1995 Actual output Perceived potential output lower interest rates; recession; accelerates inflation TIME O raise interest rates; boom; accelerates a recession keep interest rates the same; boom; accelerates inflation O Not enough information is given. lower interest rates; boom; increases unemployment
The economy has shifted and the quantity of the real GDP supplied has increased. What has potentially happened to aggregate price levels? Potentially the price levels have increased to a higher aggregate price level and if the wages are sticky, businesses have hired more employees as labor has become cheaper. O Potentially the price levels have decreased to a lower aggregate price level and if the wages are sticky, businesses have hired more employees as labor has become cheaper. Potentially the price levels have increased to a higher aggregate price level and if the wages are sticky, businesses have fired some employees as labor has become too expensive.
In the figure, as the price level increases the aggregate demand curve will Price level (GDP price index, 2012 = 100) A. not shift. O B. not shift, but the aggregate demand curve will change so that it is positively sloped. O C. shift from AD, to AD, O D. shift from AD, to AD, and then back to AD,. E. shift from AD, to AD3.
