What is the effect of an increase in aggregate demand on the short-run Phillips curve?
When aggregate demand increases, _______.
A.
the short-run Phillips curve shifts upward
B.
the short-run Phillips curve shifts downward
C.
a movement occurs upward along the short-run Phillips curve
D.
a movement occurs downward along the short-run Phillips curve
The Phillips curve represents the relationship between unemployment and inflation. You are required to think about the impact on the economy of movements along the curve. If the unemployment rate in the economy is steady at 4 percent per year, how does the short-run Phillips curve predict that the inflation rate will be changing, if at all? What will happen if the unemployment rate now rises to 7 percent per year? Assume there are no changes to inflation expectations. Provide an appropriate graph to support your discussion.
Graphically derive short run Phillips curve with the help of aggregate demand and supply and demand.

- Assume that the United States economy is currently in a recession in a short-run equilibrium. Draw a correctly labeled graph of the short-run and long-run Phillips curves. Use the letter X to label a point to represent the current state of the economy in recession.arrow_forwardAccording to the Phillips curve, there is an inverse relationship between inflation and unemployment. It is possible for policymakers to “buy” lower unemployment by allowing higher inflation. Using a Phillips curve, illustrate and explain how nationwide rioting and looting will impact the economy and why this supply shock has implications for policymakersarrow_forwardAs described in the chapter, the Federal Reserve in 2008 faced a decrease in aggregate demand caused by the housing and financial crises and a decrease in short-run aggregate supply caused by rising commodity prices. 1. Starting from a long-run equilibrium, illustrate the effects of these two changes on aggregate supply and aggregate demand on the following graph. Then, on the subsequent graph, indicate what happens on a Phillips-curve diagram. (Please use the images attached.) 2. Which of the following is true as a result of the two changes in aggregate demand and aggregate supply? (Note: Do not consider the magnitudes of the shifts given on the preceding graphs. Think only about the directions of the shifts.) Check all that apply. -Equilibrium output will rise. -The price level will fall. -Unemployment will rise. -The effect on the inflation rate will be ambiguous.arrow_forward

Assume that the economy is currently in long-run equilibrium. Suppose the central bank of the hypothetical economy decides to increase the money supply. 1. On the following graph, shift the curve or drag the blue point along the curve, or do both, to show the short-run effects of this policy. (Please use the image attached) 2. In the short run, an unexpected increase in the money supply results in a decrease? an increase? no change? in the inflation rate and a decrease? an increase? no change? in the unemployment rate.arrow_forward
