Suppose Toyota replaces its 2018 model Camry with a 2019 model that is priced at 5 percent more, but for which consumers are willing to pay 10 percent less. Suppose the government treats the 2019 Camry as equal in quality to the 2018 model. Will this cause the Government to over or underestimate the inflation rate? Will it cause the government to over or underestimate the growth rate in real GDP?
Homework Answers
If the government treats the 2019 model car similar to 2018 model car, this will cause the government to overestimate the Inflation rate (as 2019 prices are higher than 2018)
This will cause the government to underestimate the growth rate in real GDP because increased quality of car is not taken into account (which ideally is an improvement in the GDP of the economy if u consider quality)

1. Consider two countries, U.S. and Thailand. In 2019, the U.S. experienced an output growth of 2%, whereas Thailand had an output growth of 4.5%. Suppose the U.S. Federal Reserve allowed the money supply to grow by 4.5% each year, whereas the Bank of Thailand chose to maintain relatively high money supply growth of 6% per year. For the following questions, use the simple monetary model. Treat the U.S. as the home country and Thailand as the foreign country. (a)...

In 2019, the United States is experiencing an unemployment rate that is below its natural rate of unemployment. That is, its labor force is more than fully employed.

In addition, after years of quantitative easing in the wake of the 2008-09 financial crisis and economic recession, the Federal Reserve must now roll back its quantitative easing and shrink its...
