In the figure above, assume that output is $10.5 trillion, while potential output is $12 trillion. If there is no policy intervention, we should expect ________. A) rightward shifts of IS & AD, so that both output and inflation rise B) a decrease in inflation to shift the MP curve, raising the real interest rate C) declines in both the inflation rate and the real interest rate as output rises D) a decrease in inflation to shift the AD curve, causing output to rise E) none of the above
