Questions and Answers

According to the classical theory of money, how is the aggregate supply (AS) represented?

  • As a vertical line indicating constant total outputs regardless of price levels (correct)
  • As a downward-sloping line indicating decreasing total outputs with increasing price levels
  • As a horizontal line indicating constant price levels regardless of total outputs
  • As an upward-sloping line indicating increasing total outputs with increasing price levels
  • What does the classical theory assume about the flexibility of prices and wages?

  • They are flexible only in the short run but not in the long run
  • They are completely flexible and can be determined by market forces (correct)
  • They are rigid and cannot be determined by market forces
  • They are completely inflexible and determined by government regulations
  • How does the classical theory explain the impact of changes in aggregate demand (AD) on prices and wages?

  • Changes in AD have no impact on prices and wages
  • Changes in AD only impact prices but not wages
  • Changes in AD can impact prices and wages without changing aggregate supply (AS) (correct)
  • Changes in AD can impact aggregate supply (AS) without impacting prices and wages
