The Federal Reserve uses an inflation target of 2-3%; most economists agree that the US natural rate of unemployment is around 4.5%. Imagine that you are a policy analyst observing the government and the Federal Reserve. You determine that inflation is 1% (very low) and unemployment is hovering around 6.5% (quite high.) The Federal Reserve responds by cutting interest rates and beginning to buy government bonds in open-market operations. The government takes the position that the only way out of a recession is to decrease government spending and passes a budget with very little spending (this is called "taking austerity measures"). What effects would the Fed's actions have, if taken alone? What effects would the government's actions have, if taken alone? What do you predict will occur when both actions are taken? Who do you think is making the right suggestion?
