Hailey's wage and the prices of puzzle books and lattes double as the Fed increases the money supply between 2012 and 2017. Since all prices have doubled, the relative price of a puzzle book remains $14.00$8.00=1.75 lattes. The money-denominated, or nominal, value of Hailey's wage increases over this period. Hailey's real wage, however, does not change. Her relative wage is still $56.00$14.00=4 puzzle books per hour or $56.00$8.00=7 lattes per hour after the increase in the money supply. Hailey's experience is consistent with monetary neutrality, which is the proposition that a change in the money supply affects nominal variables but does not affect real variables.
