Questiоn 6 Assume thаt, fоr sоme reаson, the productivity in аn economy is below its long-run trend. Explain why this economic situation could be consistent with an “inflation shock” in the short-run model. Your explanation should include a conclusion about whether this shock would be positive or negative. Explain how the central bank might respond to this shock in the IS-MP model with the goal of keeping inflation constant. Specifically, draw an IS-MP diagram and include IS and MP curves for the time period during this shock. (You can assume inflation expectations are adaptive and that the central bank knows the shock values.) Would your answer in part (2) change if there was also a negative demand shock during this time?
