a) Using aggregate supply and demand curves illustrate the different effects on output of demand-pull and cost-push inflation. b) Show using an aggregate supply and demand curve diagram, how an initial increase in aggregate demand though monetary policy may have no effect on output if workers with "rational expectations" seek wage rises to compensate for the expected higher price level.

Be sure to includeboth short-run aggregate supply and long-runaggregate supply.b. The central bank raises the money supply by5 percent. Use your diagram to show whathappens to output and the price level as theeconomy moves from the initial equilibrium to thenew short-run equilibrium (call it point B).c.
