Q: If the quantity of money grows at a rate of 10 percent a year and potential GDP grows at 3 percent a year, what is the inflation rate in the long run?

  1. V=constant

    Y=+3%=1.03

    M/P=Y/V

    1.1/P=1.03/1

    P=1.1/1.03=1.06796=+6.796%

    Answer: long-run average inflation will be 6.796%
