Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

When there is inflation, menu costs refer to the actual physical costs of changing prices, as would be necessary for printed material such as catalogs, price tags and restaurant menus. Shoe leather costs refer to the costs involved with holding less cash. When there is inflation, people will tend to want to hold less cash, since the value of cash being held will decrease. If less cash is held, more frequent trips to banks or ATMs will be necessary when people need cash.
