Did anyone find that there weren't many C's in the MCQ?

I defined spare capacity, I drew the pbb and put point x inside the pbb saying that it shows spare capacity exists, I then spoke about how fiscal supply side policy such as increased spending on education shifts the lras to the right , I drew that too and then I said that inflation is decreasing from pl1 to pl1 and that this also makes us more internationally competitive

Please tell me you also got something similar


the question asked, how a reduction in spare capacity(meaning increased output) will impact inflation.

Yeah I found that! Had quite a few D's (stop sniggering) which I thought was weird... Did anyone else find that?

I am 100% sure your not allowed to include A2 in AS retakes, it's like doing an A2 monopoly diagram in an AS monopoly question on market failure..

Yes I thought I might have misinterpreted slightly .. However I still explained it by saying growth demand strips supply and how actual growth would exceed trend and the whole positive output gap malarkey.. I know i won't get full marks but hopefully close to it ..

People who did Context 2, did any of you use the Keynesian Long-run Aggregate Supply curve to show how the price level (inflation) rises when the economy nears it's productive potential??


Or is that all wrong, if so I'm screwed :frown:

Damn for context 2 12 marker, I said that lras will shift to the left and Ad will shift inwards , due to miss match in skills. Would I get any marks at all ?????

probably not, you will get definition marks and marks for a diagram if you drew one

If the diagram is labled correctly but not relevant to the question ie not answering the question will you still get marks ?
