SP25 ECON 312 001 Homework #7 (Introduction to the Short Run)

数值题

Suppose the economy is currently producing at potential and the actual output is $22 trillion. The inflation rate is 4.5%. The slope of the Phillips curve is 1 2 . In response to a macroeconomic shock that does not affect actual output but raises potential output from $22 trillion to $22.5 trillion, you know that based on the Phillips Curve the inflation rate in the economy will change to ________ percent. Recall that πt=πt−1+Δπt. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.

Opening thought: the problem mixes a Phillips-curve relationship with a shift in potential output and a stable actual output, so the key is to track the output gap and apply the given slope. Option exploration (no choices to pick from yet): we know the economy starts at Y = 22 trillion with inflation π = 4.5%. The slope of the Phillips curve is given as 1/2, which typically means a one-period change in inflation (Δπ) is half a percentage point per unit of output gap (depending on units), or alternatively Δπ = α (Y − Yp) with α = 0.5 if......Login to view full explanation

Suppose the Federal Reserve decreases interest rates from 4% to 3%, which shifts aggregate demand and increases short-run output to 5.0%. If there are no other shocks to the economy, and the resulting change in inflation is 2.0 percentage points, what is the value of the parameter 𝜈 ¯ ? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
