- The expected real rate of interest is 0.6%, actual inflation over the last year was 3%, and expected inflation over the next year is 7.4%. What is the current level of nominal interest rates (in %) predicted by the Fisher equation?arrow_forwardRefer to the diagram. The initial aggregate demand curve is AD1 and the initial aggregate supply curve is AS1. In the long run, the aggregate supply curve is vertical in the diagram because: A) nominal wages and other input prices are assumed to be fixed. B) real output level Qf is the potential level of output. C) price level increases produce perfectly offsetting changes in nominal wages and other input prices. D) higher than expected rates of actual inflation reduce real output only temporarily.arrow_forwardIf aggregate supply is vertical, then which of the following statements must be true? Aggregate demand does not affect the quantity of output. Inflation creates greater social benefits. Inflation will accompany any rise in output. Aggregate demand does not cause inflationary changes in price level.arrow_forward
