8) Assume that the economy is initially operating at the natural level of output. A one-time 4% reduction in the nominal money supply will cause: A) a 4% increase in the price level in the medium run. B) a 4% reduction in the price level in the medium run. C) a 4% increase in the real money supply in the medium run. D) a 4% increase in the interest rate (i) in the medium run. E) a 4% reduction in investment in the medium run.

13) The aggregate demand curve shows a(n). relationship between the A) positive; interest rate and planned investment B) negative; interest rate and planned investment C) negative; interest rate and money demand D) inverse; price level and aggregate output
Assume the money supply is $1,000, the velocity of money is 12, and the price level is $4. Using the quantity theory of money: (a) Determine the level of real output. (b) Determine the level of nominal output. (c) Assuming velocity remains constant and that the economy is at full-employment equilibrium, what will happen if the money supply rises by 10%?
An IS curve shows: (a) that realized savings are most likely a function of interest rates, because changes in interest rates result in changes in precautionary demand for money; (b) the combinations of investments and incomes that result in the supply and demand for money being equal to one another; (c) the locus of all combinations of interest rates and incomes that will result in realized investment and realized savings being equal to one another; (d) that increases in output typically are caused by increases in interest rates.
The government of a country increases the growth rate of the money supply from 5 percent per year to 50 percent per year. a) What happens to prices? b) What happens to nominal interest rate? c) Why might the government be doing this?
The commodity market for a simple two-sector economy is in equilibrium when Y = C + I. The money market is in equilibrium when the supply of money (Ms) equals the demand for money (Md), which in turn is composed of the transaction-precautionary demand for money (Mt) and the speculative demand for money (Mz). Assume a two-sector economy where C = 5 + 0.8Y, I = 100 - 75i, Ms = 250, Mt= 0.3Y, and Mz = 50 - 150i. , find the IS and LM and equliprium in commodity and money markets.

When the money market is drawn with the value of money on the vertical axis, an increase in the money supply shifts the money supply curve to the a) right, lowering the price level. b) left, raising the price level. c) right, raising the price level. d) lefi, lowering the price level.
All else equal, suppose the interest rate rise from 3% to 3.5%. What will happen in the supply of money? a. Shifts to the right. b. Shifts to the left. c. An upward movement along the supply curve. d. An downward movement along the supply curve. e. The supply will remain unchanged.
d) Suppose the money demand function was of the following form: M^d / P = Y η What must the central bank do to achieve an inflation target of 2% over the long-run given a growth rate of income of 5% and an elasticity of money demand with respect to income of 0.8? You can assume that the real rate of interest, r, is fixed at 6%.
Question 8 If the quantity of money demanded exceeds the quantity of money supplied, then the: effect on the interest rate is indeterminate. interest rate will decrease. interest rate stays the same. interest rate will increase.
In class we assumed that money demand depends upon income, Md = L(Y, i). However, if people hold money as a medium of exchange it may be that money demand really should depend upon consumption, Md = L(C, i). In other words, if people consume more, they will also want to hold more money. Suppose that consumption, as usual, depends upon disposable income, C = C(Y – T). Money demand will then also, indirectly, depend upon disposable income, Md = L[C(y - T), i]. True or False: In this case, a tax cut will always increase in the short run
Question 45 By definition, the velocity of money is the a) difference between this year's inflation rate and last year's. b) inverse of the time the average commercial transaction takes. c) number of individual commercial transactions occurring each year. d) rate at which the money supply is growing. e) number of times per year a unit of money changes hands.
