The Economy in 2008In the first half of June 2008 the effects of a housing and financial crisis and an increase in world prices of oil and foodstuffs were affecting the economy.
Refer to The Economy in 2008. The short-run effects of rising world commodity prices are shown by
a.
moving to the right along the short-run Phillips curve.
b.
shifting the short-run Phillips curve right.
c.
moving to the left along the short-run Phillips curve.
d.
shifting the short-run Phillips curve left.
(i)
Examine the extent to which policymakers face a trade-off between
unemployment and inflation,
(ii)
The Phillips curve suggests there is a trade-off between inflation and
unemployment, at least in the short term. Other economists argue the trade-
off between inflation and unemployment is weak. Analyse this trade-off
when Bank Indonesia (Central Bank of China) decreases reserve
requirement ratio.
(iii)
Draw the model of aggregate demand and aggregate supply diagram with
the Phillips curve.
