- Suppose wages and prices are flexible, people form their expectations rationally, and they anticipate policy incorrectly.What happens?arrow_forwardRational vs Adaptive Expectations. How are they both different from the assumption we have used up to this point? What are the policy implications of one versus the other?arrow_forwardSuppose you flipped an honest coin 10 times and tails came up 10 times. You are about to toss the coin another 10 times. Complete the statements that follow to indicate how many tails you would expect in the next 10 coin flips based on adaptive expectations theory and rational expectations theory. Using adaptive expectations, you would expect tails to come up. Using rational expectations, you would expect tails to come up.arrow_forward
- The rational expectations assumption is unrealistic because, essentially, it amounts to the assumption that every consumer has perfect knowledge of the economy.” Discuss in the context of developing countries.arrow_forwardSuppose the Central bank announces today a change in monetary policy: it is increasing target inflation from 2% to 3%. Using the 3-equation model under adaptive expectations, explain how the economy adjusts to the change in monetary policy. (you need to use the graph, and explain in detail how the economy reacts to this change).arrow_forwardAccording to the neoclassical model, when the Federal Reserve implements expansionary monetary policy, a aggregate demand will decrease, price level will decrease, and output will remain the same. b aggregate demand will decrease, price level will decrease, and output will increase. c aggregate demand will increase, price level will increase, and output will remain the same. d aggregate demand will increase, price level will increase, and output will increase.arrow_forward
