5. The slope and position of the long-run aggregate supply curve Suppose the Fed doubles the growth rate of the quantity of money in the economy. In the long run, the increase in money growth will change which of the following? Check all that apply. - The level of technological knowledge - The quantity of physical capital - The inflation rate - The size of the labor force Suppose the economy produces real GDP of $50 billion when unemployment is at its natural rate. Use the purple points (diamond symbol) to plot the economy's long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) curve on the graph. Suppose the government passes a law that significantly increases the minimum wage. The policy will cause the natural rate of unemployment to: - Not affect the long-run aggregate supply curve - Shift the long-run aggregate supply curve to the left - Shift the long-run aggregate supply curve to the right In the following table, determine how each event affects the position of the long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) curve: - Direction of LRAS Curve Shift - Many workers leave to pursue more lucrative careers in foreign economies. - Scientific breakthrough significantly increases food production per acre of farmland. - Government-sponsored training program increases the skill level of the workforce.
