Question:
Assume that the monetary policy curve is given by r = 1.5 + 0.751π.
a. Calculate the real interest rate when the inflation rate is 2%, 3%, and 4%.
b. Draw a graph of the MP curve, labeling the points from part (a).
c. Assume now that the monetary policy curve is given by r = 2.5 + 0.751π. Does the new monetary policy curve represent an autonomous tightening or loosening of monetary policy?
d. Calculate the real interest rate when the inflation rate is 2%, 3%, and 4%, and draw the new MP curve, showing the shift from part (b).
