Answer to Question 1

Monetary policy has three goals: price level stability, maximum employment, and moderate long-term interest rates. In the long run, these goals all coincide and are best met by keeping the inflation rate low. In the short run, however, there is a tradeoff: Higher inflation can lead to lower unemployment and hence higher employment. So in the short run, higher employment can be attained but at the cost of higher inflation.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
