There is a group of economists who argue that the US should return to what’s called a “gold standard”. According to this policy approach, the dollar price of gold is always kept the same, so that we can think of the prices of goods and services as really being denominated in ounces of gold. In this problem, you’ll do a simple calculation that suggests possible problems with this approach. a.
