The period 1970’s was known as stagflation, a situation in which economy experiences a steady increase in the inflation and unemployment.

Q.95:

The correct option is (A).

The level of structural unemployment will decline as people acquire skills that are necessary to switch industries.

Q.97

The correct option is (A).

A change in the technology shifts the LRAS curve by changing the potential output from the same amount of inputs in the long-term.

Q.98:

The correct option is (D).

Lower Interest rates push additional investment spending. This gives the economy a boost in times of slow economic growth.

Q.100:

The correct option is (D).

The long-run aggregate supply curve reflects the relation between real production and the price level.

Real production remains constant at the full-employment level, with an increase in the price level.

If the price level falls, real production remains constant at the full-employment level.

Due to flexible prices, the same level of real production is generated at every price level.
