5. Imagine an economy with v = 1/5. Inflation expectations are zero. The economy receives a cost push shock & = 0.1. How negative must short run-output be so that SO %3D inflation is equal to 2%. 6. Imagine inflation is 10%, and the central bank wants to have inflation equal to 2%. When announcing information about future monetary policy, the central bank brings inflation expectations to 4%. The slope of the Phillips Curve is 1/3. Cost push shocks are zero. How much must short-run output fall to achieve the goal of 2% inflation? 7. Repeat the last exercise assuming that the announcement of future monetary policy is less effective, bringing inflation expectations to 8%.
