True
Shoe-leather costs are said to be incurred when time and/or resources are consumed in avoiding holding large amount of money. Households and firms would choose to incur such costs so as to avoid the opportunity cost of holding money, namely the difference between the return on bonds and the zero return on money. This means that the opportunity cost of holding money is the nominal interest rate. If the inflation rate is set so as to be consistent with a zero nominal interest rate (for a given real interest rate) then shoe-leather costs would be eliminated because there would be no incentive to incur any costs to reduce holdings of money.
