Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

The target for the federal funds rate responds differently. The output gap is negative with both recessions, but the current inflation rate and the inflation gap differ. The decrease in short-run aggregate supply will increase current inflation and the inflation gap (current inflation rate minus the target inflation rate). The decrease in aggregate demand will decrease both current inflation and the inflation gap. The target for the federal funds rate will be higher for the recession caused by a decrease in short-run aggregate supply.
