Macroeconomists generally believe that year-to-year fluctuations in real GDP around its trend are best thought of as
temporary departures from long-run equilibirum
measurement error
the sign of a healthy dynamic economy
variations in the economy's equilibrium rate of growth
Deflation is particularly bad for an economy in recession for all of the following reasons EXCEPT
a-with deflation people spend less expecting prices to be lower in the future
b- the rising prices makes goods more expensive
c- with deflation the value of assets declines while the value of loans does not - this lowers wealth and further depresses spending
The trough of the business cycle:
O is a temporary maximum level of real GDP.
comes before the recession phase.
comes right after the expansion phase.
is a temporary minimum level of real GDP.
