Questiоn 7 Answer the fоllоwing miscellаneous questions relаted to inflаtion. Suppose that you observe that, in the long run, the growth rate of real GDP is 1% per year and the growth rate of money is 5% per year for an economy. What is the long-run rate of inflation in this economy according to the quantity theory of money? Assume that, for some reason, the productivity in an economy is above its long-run trend. Explain why this economic situation could be consistent with an “inflation shock” in the short-run model. Your explanation should include a conclusion about whether this shock would be positive or negative (and should use the Phillips curve). Explain why a central bank may want to have an inflation target that is greater than zero. Specifically, comment on why a central bank might be unable to respond to economic shocks if the long-run inflation rate is too low.
