Answer to Question 1

The Fed will follow expansionary monetary policy to increase aggregate demand, which will increase inflation and reduce unemployment, if the Fed is focused on restoring real GDP in the economy. If the Fed is focused on reducing inflation, however, it will follow contractionary monetary policy, although employment and real GDP will be negatively affected.
