Please explain

1. A permanent increase in money supply cannot affect any variable in the OLG model of money.

2. In the OLG model of money, Fiat money does not pay interest, so money's rate of return is 1.

3. Suppose that the government finances its expenditure through seigniorage revenue. There exists an upper limit on the amount of the seigniorage revenue that can be generated.

4. The original Phillips curve finds that there is a negative correlation between inflation and output growth.

5. The Lucas critique indicates that the government can use a random monetary policy to stimulate output.

. The following is the annual demand function for good A:

                Q_DA = 400 – 20P_A + 10P_B + 0.01Y

where P_A is the price of good A; P_B is the price of another good, good B; Y is income.

1. Is good A a normal good or an inferior good? Explain.
2. Is good B a complement or a substitute for good A? Explain.

Assume that the current price of good B is £5, income is £50 000, and the annual supply function for good A is:

                Q_SA = 100 + 10P_A

3. Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity.

4. Calculate price elasticity of demand if the price of good A rises by £5 from the equillibrium price and the demand decreases by 7% and what does this show about the product ?

5. Calculate the price elasticity of supply if the amount supplied increases by 26.60 units (from the equillibrium) and this results in a decrease in price of 4%. Suggest what this figure shows             

Why do people of all ages, income levels, and educational backgrounds not participate in political life? Can anything be done to engage these people?
