  Which of the following is a TRUE statement concerning the differences between what happens when the central bank action is unanticipated and when it is anticipated?

When the increase in aggregate demand is unanticipated, the economy moves to B in the short run, but when the increase in aggregate demand is anticipated, short-run aggregate supply shifts when the aggregate demand curve shifts, and the economy moves immediately to point C.
  B) The new long-run equilibrium when the increase in aggregate demand is unanticipated is point B while the new long-run equilibrium when the increase in aggregate demand is anticipated is point C.

  D) The new long-run equilibrium when the increase in aggregate demand is unanticipated is point B while the new long-run equilibrium when the increase in aggregate demand is anticipated is point A.
