Answer to Question 1

E

Answer to Question 2

A rightward shift of the short-run Phillips curve worsens the tradeoff between inflation and unemployment. With the rightward shift, a given level of inflation is now associated with a higher unemployment rate, or stated another way, a given unemployment rate is now associated with a higher inflation rate. A leftward shift of the short-run Phillips curve improves the tradeoff between inflation and unemployment. With the leftward shift, a given level of inflation is now associated with a lower unemployment rate, or stated another way, a given unemployment rate is now associated with a lower inflation rate.
