Explanation / Answer

'

92. a. our income will buy more goods.
Basically with a decline in price, the real income increases which means that our purchasing power increases and hence we buy more goods.

93. e. Milton Friedman.
Milton Friedman said the given statement.

94. b. increase output.
IF the AD increases, then we expect that the output will increase but in long run price level will increase.

95. b. wage and price rigidities exist
Due to wage and price rigidities, the benefit of monetary policy may not be passed since the price variable may not change at all.
