According to the Phillips curve analysis, disinflation happens when the actual rate of inflation is initially lower than the expected rate, temporarily raising the unemployment rate. However, as nominal wages decline, the unemployment rate will fall to its natural level and the actual and expected rates of inflation will balance out.
Disinflation refers to occurrences where the inflation rate has temporarily slowed and is used to indicate situations where it has only slightly decreased. Disinflation refers to the rate of change in the rate of inflation, as opposed to inflation and deflation, which talk about the direction of prices.

Answer:
<u>expansionary; will be equal to</u>
Explanation:
<em>Remember</em>, monetary policies are basically divided into:
- expansionary monetary policy, and
- contractionary monetary policy.
Indeed, as the name implies, the expansionary monetary policy is meant to in a sense boost up economic growth in terms of reducing interest rates thereby theoretically increasing spending and also leading to an increase in the money supply. When there is an increase in the money supply, this thus leads to an increased inflation rate, which would be expected if workers and firms have rational expectations.

Explanation:</h3><h3>Part (a):</h3>
Solved part is attached as an image.
<h3>
Part (b):</h3>
Let us first determine the amount required of each item to produce 1 bracket.
From the attached diagram, we can see that to manufacture 1 bracket, quantity of each item needed is,
Base = 1
Spring = 2
Clamp = 1 + 4 = 5
Housing = 2
Handle = (1 * 1) + (4 * 1) = 5
Casting = (1 * 1) + (4 * 1) = 5
Bearing = 2 * 2 = 4
Shaft = 2 * 1 = 2
Hence, for 50 Brackets, quantity of each item required will be,
Base = 1 * 50 = 50
Spring = 2 * 50 = 100
Clamp = 5 * 50 = 250
Housing = 2 * 50 = 100
Handle = 5 * 50 = 250
Casting = 5 * 50 = 250
Bearing = 4 * 50 = 200
Shaft = 2 * 50 = 100
<em>NOTE: The above quantities give exclusive quantities required for each item. In actual practice, we won't have to purchase base, clamp & housing separately as the will be assembled from their components which are already procured.</em>
<h3>Part (c):</h3>
As 25 bases are already in stock, parts for them will not be needed. I will refer the quantities subtracted due to this by indicating (B). Similarly, quantities subtracted due to clamps will be indicated as (C).
Base = 50 - 25 = 25
Spring = 50
Clamp = 250 - 100 - 25(B) = 125
Housing = 100 - (2*25)(B) = 50
Handle = 1 * 125 = 125
Casting = 1 * 125 = 125
Bearing = 2 * 50 = 100
Shaft = 1 * 50 = 50
Answer
Option C
Decrease in cost $132,672
Explanation:
T<em>o determine the increase or decrease in costs associated with making, we will compare the relevant costs of the two options as follows</em>
<em> $</em>
Variable cost of making 10
Variable cost buying <u>14</u>
Savings in cost per from making 4
Total cost savings (decrease) 4 × 33,168 = $132,672
Decrease in cost as result of making =$132,672
