If the economy is at the point where the short-run Phillips curve intersects the long-run Phillips curve,
a. unemployment equals the natural rate and expected inflation equals actual inflation.
b. unemployment is above the natural rate and expected inflation equals actual inflation.
c. unemployment equals the natural rate and expected inflation is greater than actual inflation.
d. None of the above is necessarily correct.
a. unemployment equals the natural rate and expected inflation equals actual inflation.
(When SRPC intersects the LRPC then unemployment equals the natural rate and expected inflation equals actual inflation.)

The Phillips curve exhibits Short-run Phillips curve Inflation rate (%per year) A. the direct relationship between the unemployment and the inflation rates 0 B. the situation where cyclical unemployment becomes zero. O C. the inverse relationship between the actual and the natural rate of unemployment. D. the relationship between the unemployment and the inflation rates Use the line drawing tool to draw a short-run Phillips curve. Properly label this line Note: if you are not prompted for a label, you...
2. Phillips Curve. An economy has the following functions for its short run aggregate supply (SRAS), Okun's Law (OL), and Phillips Curve (PC): SRAS: P = EP + (1/2)(y - 3) OL: (Y-Y) = -4(u-u") PC:T = ET - (1/5)( - 6) The economy begins at its natural rate of output with a stable price level equal to $5. a.) Output is at its natural level when the price level is equal to expectations. Calculate the natural rate of output...
Consider the short-run and long-run Phillips Curves illustrated in the figure below. Assume consumers have a daptive expectations. Suppose the inflation rate has been 15 percent for the past four years. The unemployment rate is currently at the natural rate of unemployment of 5 percent. The Federal Reserve decides that it wants to permanently reduce the inflation rate to 5 percent and uses monetary policy to do so. Describe the new short-run Phillips Curve with adaptive expectations. PC- PC- Inflation...

a. Use the AD-AS model to derive the short run Phillips curve and show how policy can move the economy from a point with high inflation to appoint with low inflation. b. Use the AD-AS model to derive the long-run Phillips curve and show the short run and long run effect of a policy that has the goal of reducing the unemployment rate
Suppose the short run Phillips Curve is given by: Inflation = Expected Inflation + 0.2 - 4*Unemployment Rate Assume that initially, people expect zero inflation. a)Draw the short run Phillips Curve and the long run Phillips Curve on a graph b)On the graph, represent what would happen in the short run if the government decided to run 4% inflation (setting inflation =0.04). c)On the graph, represent what would happen in the long run if the government decided to run 4%...
An increase in expected inflation shifts the short-run Phillips curve right. a. b. short-run Phillips curve left. long-run Phillips curve right. C. d. long-run Phillips curve left. O Icon Key
Figure 17-7 Inflation rate (percent per year) Long-run Phillips curve 10% 5 Short-run Phillips curve 0 5.5% 7.5 Unemployment rate (percent) Refer to Figure 17-7. 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...
The Figure illustrates the expectations theory of the Phillips curve Short Run Statistical Trade-Off Versus Long Run No-Tradeoff;. This theory states that a. increasing the inflation rate causes a lower unemployment rate in the long run; 4 b. Phillips curves shift when the real GDP growth increases; c. short-run Phillips curves slope downwards & the long-run Phillips curve is vertical; d. all of the above. .

In the long run, the Phillips Curve shows that a. the natural rate of unemployment is independent of fiscal and monetary policy changes. b. unemployment and inflation have a direct relationship. c. an increase in unemployment leads to an increase in inflation. d. there is an inverse relationship between inflation and unemployment. e. unemployment increases when inflation decreases.
