Answer:

The correct answer is: zero; zero.

Explanation:

If a monopolist discovers a way to perfectly discriminate, it means that the monopolist will charge equal to the willingness to pay from each consumer.

The consumer surplus is the difference between the maximum price a consumer is willing to pay and the price it actually pays.

Since each consumer is paying price equal to its willingness to pay, the consumer surplus will be zero.

There will be no efficiency costs. The monopolist will sell output where the maximum price the consumer is willing to pay is equal to or greater than the marginal cost. So all efficient trades will occur, there will be no efficiency costs.

Answer:

<u>expansionary; will be equal to</u>

Explanation:

<em>Remember</em>, monetary policies are basically divided into:

  1. expansionary monetary policy, and
  2. 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.
