- Use the graph(s) created in the previous question to contrast the effects and consequences of inflation and deflation in the short and long term. (the question before was: Using the data in the table, integrate the expected relationship of the behavior of inflation with the phases of the economic cycle. You must use the different levels of inflation rate with economic growth and construct graphs to present your analysis arguments.)arrow_forwardThe graph depicts a hypothetical economy's short-run Philips curve (SRPC). Please shift the SRPC to reflect what happens when expected inflation decreases by 2 percentage points. After the shift in SRPC, what is the unemployment rate if the public expects no inflation in the economy? % Inflation rate (%) -1 -2 0 7 6 SRPC 5 4 3 2 -3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 0 10arrow_forwardIn the short-run you know that firms and households expect inflation of 3.6% next year. There are no supply shocks and cyclical unemployment is 1.09%. Lambda is 0.5. With this information, what is the inflation rate today? Write your answer as a percentage, round at one (1) decimal, and do not write the percentage sign. Use a minus sign if needed.arrow_forward
- Define Inflation. Explain why inflation is a macroeconomic concernarrow_forwardResearch suggests that macroeconomic factors can explain the dynamics of interest rates in the economy. Suppose we are interested in understanding whether inflation plays a role in explaining interest rates. Fitting a line between the current nominal interest rate i and current inflation we obtain: i = 0.041 -0.147 What is the expected level of interest rates when inflation is at the level of 4%?arrow_forwardExplain three implications of increasing inflation.arrow_forward
- Increase in money supply in an economy increases inflation. Use appropriate diagrams to explain the validity or otherwise of the above statement.arrow_forwardAnswer the following using relevant models and / or graphs: (1) Explain the factors that affect inflation in the short and medium term.arrow_forwardThere are two countries in the world, A and B. Suppose the central bank in country A has an annual inflation target pai = 0.02 while the central bank in country B has anannual inflation target pai = 0.03. In the long run, we would expect the nominalexchange rate of country A to appreciate against country B at a rate of about 1% per year.True or False? Explain.arrow_forward
- What is meant by the substitution effect when measuring inflation and does the substitution effect cause the stated inflation rate to overstate or understate the true effect of inflation?arrow_forwardThis kind of inflation is called (cost-push, demand-pull) inflation. Inflation of this type is accompanied by (a decrease, an increase) in aggregate output.arrow_forwardPlease draw the Philips curve with a positive relationship between aggregate output and inflation and another that shows an upward shift in the whole curve (brief explanation please as trying to understand it (: )arrow_forward
