Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

An increase in capital increases labor productivity. It shifts the production function upward and, because productivity has increased, it increases the demand for labor. Equilibrium employment increases because of the increase in demand for labor. Potential GDP increases because employment increases and because the production function has shifted upward.
