The Office for National Statistics (ONS) in the UK last year proposed a new price index-a CPI that includes housing costs-called the CPIH. The rationale given for this proposal is that
"the biggest cost for most homeowners is the cost of repaying their mortgage. But mortgage interest payments are not included in the CPI, nor are a variety of other costs, such as house depreciation, buildings insurance and ground rent, and house transaction costs such as estate agents' fees, survey costs and conveyancing charges. Council tax is not included in the CPI either."
Briefly evalute this proposal. What are its advantages and disadvantages? How do you think the CPIH would have behaved in the past 5 years relative to the CPI? Would the CPIH be a useful inflation target measure?

"I think this country can have an unemployment rate close to 4.5 per cent [as opposed to the commonly assumed 5, or 5.5 per cent] without wage growth causing problems for inflation."
Shortly after, journalist A suggested this is good news for the government. In contrast, two days later, another journalist, journalist B, argued the opposite, that this is bad news for the government, citing the high rate of underemployment in Australia.
a) Which well-known macroeconomic concept is Governor Lowe referring to and what is it called?
b) What arguments would support the two journalists' assessments, respectively? Briefly explain.
c) Briefly explain some of the key characteristics that make the labour market different from, say, the market for chocolate bars?

Y=C + I +G Demand for Money; r = 100 - M
C = 100 + 0.8 (Y –T) Supply of Money : M* = 90
I = 400 – 20 r
G =120
T = 100
Where Y is GDP, C is consumption, I is investment, G is government purchases, T is taxes, and r is the interest rate (%). And M is the stock of money. If the economy were at full employment (that is at its natural rate), GDP would be 2,000.
Y* =_____________________
M*=90 to M**=80. Then what is new equilibrium level of GDP(Y**)? Y**=__________
