Question 1

In 1968,economist Milton Friedman published a paper criticizing the Phillips curve on the grounds that&#10;A)it seemed to work for wages but not for inflation.&#10;B)monetary policy was ineffective in combating inflation.&#10;C)the Phillips curve did not apply in the long run.&#10;D)Phillips had made errors in collecting his data.

Accepted Answer

Friedman argued that the Phillips curve only applied in the short run and that in the long run, there was no trade-off between inflation and unemployment. He believed that any attempt to keep unemployment below its natural rate through expansionary monetary policy would only lead to higher inflation in the long run. Therefore, he rejected the Phillips curve as a reliable tool for economic policy.

Question 2

Milton Friedman and Edmund Phelps argued in the late 1960s that in the long run the Phillips curve is&#10;A)downward-sloping,which implies that monetary and fiscal policies can influence the level of unemployment in the long run.&#10;B)downward-sloping,which implies that monetary and fiscal policies cannot influence the rate of inflation in the long run.&#10;C)vertical,which implies that monetary and fiscal policies cannot influence the level of unemployment in the long run.&#10;D)vertical,which implies that monetary and fiscal policies cannot influence the rate of inflation in the long run.

Accepted Answer

Milton Friedman and Edmund Phelps argued that in the long run, the Phillips curve is vertical, indicating that monetary and fiscal policies cannot permanently alter the natural rate of unemployment. This suggests that attempts to reduce unemployment below its natural rate through monetary and fiscal policies would only lead to higher inflation in the long run without affecting long-term unemployment.

Question 3

One way to express the classical idea of monetary neutrality is to draw&#10;A)a downward-sloping short-run Phillips curve.&#10;B)an upward-sloping short-run Phillips curve.&#10;C)a downward-sloping long-run Phillips curve.&#10;D)a vertical long-run Phillips curve.

Accepted Answer

The classical idea of monetary neutrality suggests that changes in the money supply only affect nominal variables in the long run, but not real variables. This is represented by a vertical long-run Phillips curve, indicating that changes in the money supply do not impact the rate of unemployment in the long run, and that the natural rate of unemployment is independent of changes in the money supply.

Question 4

According to the long-run Phillips curve,in the long run monetary policy influences&#10;A)both the inflation rate and the unemployment rate.&#10;B)the inflation rate but not the unemployment rate.&#10;C)the unemployment rate but not the inflation rate.&#10;D)neither the unemployment rate nor the inflation rate.

Accepted Answer

According to the long-run Phillips curve, in the long run, monetary policy only influences the inflation rate and not the unemployment rate. In the long run, the unemployment rate is determined by non-monetary factors such as the level of technology, demographics, and institutional factors.

Question 5

According to classical macroeconomic theory,in the long run&#10;A)monetary growth affects both real and nominal variables.&#10;B)the only real variable affected by monetary growth is the unemployment rate.&#10;C)a number of factors that affect unemployment are influenced by monetary growth.&#10;D)monetary growth affects nominal but not real variables.

Accepted Answer

According to classical macroeconomic theory, in the long run, monetary growth affects only nominal variables and not real variables. This is because classical theory assumes that changes in the money supply do not affect the economy's productive capacity but only affect the price level. Real variables, such as output and employment, are determined by factors such as technology and labor supply, which are outside the realm of monetary policy.

Question 6

A vertical long-run Phillips curve is consistent with&#10;A)the conclusion of Friedman and Phelps,but it is not consistent with the classical idea of monetary neutrality.&#10;B)the classical idea of monetary neutrality,but it is not consistent with the conclusion of Friedman and Phelps.&#10;C)both the conclusion of Friedman and Phelps and the classical idea of monetary neutrality.&#10;D)neither the conclusion of Friedman and Phelps nor the classical idea of monetary neutrality.

Accepted Answer

The vertical long-run Phillips curve is consistent with both the conclusion of Friedman and Phelps, who argued that in the long run, there is no trade-off between inflation and unemployment, and the classical idea of monetary neutrality, which posits that changes in the money supply only affect nominal variables and not real variables like unemployment in the long run.

Question 7

In the long run,if the Fed decreases the growth rate of the money supply,&#10;A)inflation will be lower.&#10;B)unemployment will be higher.&#10;C)real GDP will be lower.&#10;D)All of the above are correct.

Accepted Answer

If the Fed decreases the growth rate of the money supply, it will lead to lower inflation in the long run as there will be less money chasing the same amount of goods and services. However, it may not have a direct effect on unemployment or real GDP.

Question 8

According to the Phillips curve,unemployment and inflation are negatively related in&#10;A)the short run and in the long run.&#10;B)the short run,but not in the long run.&#10;C)the long run,but not in the short run.&#10;D)neither the long run nor the short run.

Accepted Answer

The Phillips curve suggests that there is a negative relationship between unemployment and inflation in the short run. However, in the long run, this relationship may break down due to a variety of factors, such as changes in expectations or structural changes in the economy. Therefore, while there may be a negative correlation between these variables in the short run, it is not necessarily true in the long run.

Question 9

In the late 1960s,Milton Friedman and Edmund Phelps argued that&#10;A)the trade-off between inflation and unemployment did not apply in the long run This claim is consistent with monetary neutrality in the long run.&#10;B)the trade-off between inflation and unemployment did not apply in the long run.This claim is inconsistent with monetary neutrality in the long run.&#10;C)the trade-off between inflation and unemployment applied in both the short run and the long run.This claim is consistent with monetary neutrality in the long run.&#10;D)the trade-off between inflation and unemployment applied in both the short run and the long run.This claim is inconsistent with monetary neutrality in the long run.

Accepted Answer

Friedman and Phelps argued that in the long run, the trade-off between inflation and unemployment did not exist. This means that even with increased inflation, there would not be a decrease in unemployment. This claim is consistent with monetary neutrality, which suggests that changes in the money supply only have a temporary effect on the economy in the short run, but not in the long run.

Question 10

In the late 1960s,economist Edmund Phelps published a paper that&#10;A)argued that there was no long-run tradeoff between inflation and unemployment.&#10;B)disproved Friedman's claim that monetary policy was effective in controlling inflation.&#10;C)showed the optimal point on the Phillips curve was at an unemployment rate of 5 percent and an inflation rate of 2 percent.&#10;D)argued that the Phillips curve was stable and that it would not shift.

Accepted Answer

Phelps' paper challenged the prevailing belief at the time that there was a stable tradeoff between inflation and unemployment, known as the Phillips curve. He argued that in the long run, there was no such tradeoff and that attempts to reduce unemployment below its natural rate would only lead to higher inflation. This idea became known as the "natural rate of unemployment" and had important implications for economic policy.
