Suppose the central bank decides to increase money supply (M) in an economy during "normal" times (i.e., without a crisis). Which of the following best describes the short-run effect of this policy in a closed economy? O a. There will be a rightward movement along the aggregate demand curve in the P-Y space due to higher interest rates driving investment. O b. There will be a rightward movement along the aggregate demand curve in the P-Y space due to lower interest rates driving investment. O c. Aggregate demand will shift to the right in the P-Y space due to higher interest rates driving investment. O d. Aggregate demand will shift to the right in the P-Y space due to lower interest rates driving investment.

2. Suppose country A has a central bank with full credibility, and country B has a central bank with no credibility. Assume that in 2020, both countries are hit with the same COVID-19 shock.If the both central banks announce an autonomous easing policy to reduce the unemployment rate, a) How does the credibility of each country’s central bank affect the speed of adjustment of the aggregate supply curve to policy announcements? b) How does this result affect output stability?

Question 1 There are three policy variables that the government and the Bank of Zambia control that have a major influence on the economy. Draw small sketch graphs and quick indications of the effects on Y and i of each variable moving both up and down while holding the other policy variables constant (i.e. there are six situations to consider). The first one is done for you as an indication of how to do the others: 1. Increase in G IS-LM Model i IS LM, Y increases i increases IS: IS, Y
