- Suppose that an economy has a constant nominal money supply, a constant level of real output Y = 1500, and a constant real interest rate r = 0.05, and it’s expected rate of inflation is 2%, i.e, πe = .02. Suppose that the income elasticity of money demand is ηY = 0.5 and the interest elasticity of demand ηi = –0.2. (a) Suppose that Y decreases to 1425, r remains constant at 0.05 and there is no change in the expected rate of inflation. What is the percentage change in the equilibrium price level? (b) Suppose that r increases to 0.06 and Y remains at 1500. Assuming that expected inflation remains at πe = .02, what is the percentage change in the equilibrium price level? (c) Suppose that r increases to 0.06. Assuming that πe = .02, what would real output have to be for the equilibrium price level to remain at its initial value?u are considering the choice between investing $50,000 in a conventional 1-year bank CD offering an interest rate of 5% and a 1-year Inflation-Plus CD offering 1.5% per year plus the rate of inflation. Which is the safer investment? Can you tell which offers the higher expected return? If you expect the rate of inflation to be 3% over the next year, which is the better investment? Why? If we observe a risk-free nominal interest rate of 5% per year and a risk-free real rate of 1.5% on inflation-indexed bonds, can we infer that the market's expected rate of inflation is 3.5% per year？There are two countries in the world, A and B. Suppose the central bank in country A has an annual inflation target pai = 0.02 while the central bank in country B has anannual inflation target pai = 0.03. In the long run, we would expect the nominalexchange rate of country A to appreciate against country B at a rate of about 1% per year.True or False? Explain.

Suppose Art Major has a cost of living adjustment (COLA) clause, or an escalator clause, in his labor contract so that he will be able to maintain this same level of purchasing power in real terms in 2021 and 2022. Using the information in the table, how much will Art Major earn in 2021 and 2022 if his salary keeps up with inflation? Round your answers to the nearest dollar. Year CPI 2020 101.77 2021 106.80 2022 109.35 What is Art Major's salary in 2021? $ What is Art Major's salary in 2022? $2. If a higher inflation is expected, what would you expect to happen to the shape of theyield curve? Why?
- If an economy always has inflation of 10 percent peryear, which of the following costs of inflation will itNOT suffer?a. shoeleather costs from reduced holdings of moneyb. menu costs from more frequent price adjustmentc. distortions from the taxation of nominal capitalgainsd. arbitrary redistributions between debtors andcreditorsSocial loss is L=(u-5)^2+(pi-2)^2Philips curve is u=7-(pi-pi_e), where pi is actual inflation rate, pi_e is expected inflation by the public. (1)If gov't is honest, then gov't should choose pi =____ (2)If gov't is sophisticated and public is naive, then gov't should announce pi_a =____ (3)If gov't is sophisticated and public is naive, then gov't should choose pi =____Assume that next year’s wage rate will be 3 percent higher than this year’s because of inflationary expectations. The actual inflation rate is 4 percent. At the beginning of next year, will the real wage be higher, lower, or the same as today? Explain. Assume that Mark gets a fixed-rate loan from a bank when the expected inflation rate is 3 percent. If the actual inflation rate turns out to be 4 percent, who benefits from the unexpected inflation: Mark, the bank, neither, or both? Explain.

What will happen toaggregate output and the inflation rate in the short run?Suppose the statistical office of a country does a poorjob in measuring inflation and reports an annualizedinflation rate of 4% for a few months, while the trueinflation rate has been 2.5%. What will happen to thecentral bank’s credibility if it is engaged in inflation targeting and its target is around 2%?Expected inflation is 3%, and initially the output gap is zero (percent). A(surprise) tariff reduction on imported steel and aluminum- which are used widely in domestic production-results in (unexpected) cost-push inflation of -0.5%. Imports rise, leading to (unexpected) demand-pull inflation of -0.25%. The economy's actual rate of inflation is: A. 2.25% B. 2.50% C. 2.75% D. 3.00% E. 3.75%
