Answer to Question 1

Both models recognize the influence of expectations on aggregate demand and, thus, on inflation. Both models imply that expected high inflation is a self-fulfilling prophecy, which is likely to have a negative effect on output. In the new Keynesian model, an upward shift of the short-run aggregate supply curve causes output to fall below potential output. In the real business cycle framework, high inflation distorts incentives and disrupts capital markets, causing a decrease in (potential) output.

Answer to Question 2

C
