The target level of inflation is achieved at the equilibrium point B. In order to move the economy to the target level the central bank must raise the interest rate to create a fall in aggregate demand. Figure 8 shows a range of possible monetary rule (MR) curves that vary with the central bank inflation preference. Under which monetary rule (MR) curve will the central bank initially hike up the real interest rate to 11%? Output
