During distributive bargaining negotiations, management was successful at conceding on vacation increases, but the unions lost on wage supplements.
Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)
True
Distributive bargaining focuses on dividing a fixed economic "pie" between the two sides. A wage increase, for example, means that the union gets a larger share of the pie, management a smaller share. It is a win-lose situation. Integrative bargaining has a win-win focus; it seeks solutions beneficial to both sides.

Suppose the economy is thought to be 2 percent below potential (i.e., the output gap is ?2 percent), when potential output grows 4 percent per year. Suppose the Fed is following the Taylor rule, with an inflation rate of 3 percent over the past year. The federal funds rate is currently 3 percent. The equilibrium real fed funds rate is 3 percent and the weights on the output gap and inflation gap are 0.5 each. The inflation target is 1 percent.
