5. The short-run Phillips curve shows a trade-off between inflation and unemployment in the short-term. Inflation increase is tantamount to a reduction in unemployment and vice versa.
6. Recession policies, such as tax cuts for consumers and
businesses to stimulate consumption and investment, would have to
shift to the right for AD.
Inflation- AD should be shifted to the left using tax increases or
cutbacks in government spending.

1. Is the Phillips curve a myth? Intertemporal tradeoff between inflation and unemployment After the World War II, empirical economists noticed that, in many advanced economies, as unemployment fell, inflation tended to rise, and vice versa. The inverse relationship between unemployment and Inflation, was depicted as the Phillips curve, after William Phillips of the London School of Economics. In the 1950s and 1960s, the Phillips curve convinced many policy makers that they could use the relationship to pick acceptable levels...

Consider the Phillips curves depicted in the graph above. The Fed announces its intention to decrease inflation from 10 percent to 5 percent per year, and it succeeds. If expectations of inflation are reduced to 8 percent by the Fed's announcement, the rate of unemployment will be _in the short run. less than 5.5 percent...
