Suppose that Phillips curve for an economy is given by πt = πe t + 0.12−3.ut and in the year 2010 the unemployment rate in this economy is at its natural level but inflation is 20%. The unemployment rate is at its natural level and the inflation expectations are formed according to πe t = πt−1. The central bank wants to reduce the inflation rate to 2%, but it does not want unemployment to increase by more than two percentage...
