Homework Answers
1. Increase in price level = ((246.218-245.933)/245.933)*100 = 0.12 percent
2. With the expectation of prices to fall, the demand reduces so that the consumers could purchase in future. But deflation is observed when price level goes down 0 percent which reduces supply, increases unemployment and reduces economic growth.

Use the intertemporal model to argue your answer.
If the central bank conducts an open market sale then
it will trigger inflation and the output level will decrease (
this option is incorrect)
2)
In the model we discussed in class where we use a cash in
advance constraint to make money "valuable", the velocity of
money
increases when the price level increases ( this option is
incorrect)
3)
