The available options

A. The​ self-correcting mechanism stops working because the falling inflation produced by a negative output gap produces higher rather than lower real interest rates when the policy rate hits the zero lower​ bound, and this increase depresses planned spending and further widens the output gap.

B. The​ self-correcting mechanism stops working because the falling inflation produced by a negative output gap produces lower rather than higher real interest rates when the policy rate hits the zero lower​ bound, and this decrease depresses saving and investment and therefore further widens the output gap.

C. The​ self-correcting mechanism stops working because the rising inflation produced by a negative output gap produces lower rather than higher real interest rates when the policy rate hits the zero lower​ bound, and this decrease depresses planned spending and further widens the output gap.

D. The​ self-correcting mechanism stops working because the rising inflation produced by a positive output gap produces lower rather than higher real interest rates when the policy rate hits the zero lower​ bound, and this decrease enhances planned spending and further widens the output gap.

Answer:

A

The monopolist, like the perfect competitor, will maximize profits at the output where marginal revenue equals marginal cost.
spayn [35]
