Given the latest data on the state of the U.S. economy, the Fed signals the next increase in the target for the federal funds. The increase won’t happen until the Fed’s meeting in December of 2016. Explain the following • What open market operations the Fed would have to take to achieve the stated desired change in the federal funds rate? • What will happen to bonds prices and interest rates associated with these bonds? • Is the Fed making the policy more expansionary or contractionary? Explain why?
1. Suppose the IS curve is Y = 3945-100i and Y = 1500 + 250i is the LM curve. Using these compute: a) The equilibrium interest rate and output (i*and Y*). b) If government spending was increased by 100m with an immediate impact elasticity of 2.5 in the goods market, determine new income and interest rate. c) Determine the magnitude of the change in money supply required to eliminate any crowding out effect in (c) above. Suppose di/dMs = -0.1X, where X is the last digit of your ID number. d) Explain the dynamics represented in (a-d) using an IS-LM space. (You may insert a snapshot of the graph if drawn manually).
For the economy described below: C = 2,800+ 0.5(YT) - 8,000r 8,000r IP = 2,000 G = 2,500 NX-0 T = 3,600 a. Suppose that potential output Y* equals 9,080. What real interest rate should the Fed set to bring the economy to full employment? You may take as a given that the multiplier for this economy is 2. Instructions: Enter all your responses as whole numbers. Real rate of interest: % b. Suppose that potential output Y' equals 7,800. What real interest rate should the Fed set to bring the economy to full employment? You may take as given that the multiplier for this economy is 2. Real rate of interest: % c. Show that the real interest rate determined in part a sets national saving equal to planned investment when the economy is at potential output. This result shows that the real interest rate must be consistent with equilibrium in the market for saving when the economy is at full employment. Planned investment P= National saving S=
You are provided with the following information: a bank has a net income after taxes of $7.0 billion; it has assets of $300 billion; and bank capital of $25 billion. What is the bank's return on assets; its return on equity, and its equity multiplier? Your answer
Which of the following best explains why a large increase in the supply of bank reserves can have no effect on the equilibrium effective federal funds rate? The demand for bank reserves becomes perfectly elastic at the interest rate the Fed pays on reserves. The supply curve for bank reserves is upward sloping relative to the federal funds rate, The quantity of reserves demanded by banks is negatively related to the federal funds rate. O The supply of bank reserves become perfectly elastic at the primary discount rate set by the Fed.

Consider this frugal governed closed economy with a money market. Note there are no taxes in this economy. C = 100 + 0.3 Y I^d = 1500 − 1000 r G = 600 M^D = 500 − 200 r M^S = 480 The investment multiplier is 1.43. And the level of investment is currently $1,400. Assume that the central bank engages in open market operations which increase aggregate output/income (Y) by $100 . What is the value of the money supply after the Fed's policy is implemented? a)$475 b) $574 c) $494 d) $450
Assume that increasing price levels cause the above shift in money demand. If the central bank desired to keep levels of investment consistent with those prior to the shift of MD, what would be their optimal solution using open market operations? a. Decrease the discount rate b. Increase the federal budget deficit c. Enforce tariffs on imported resources d. Increase money supply by purchasing securities e. Sell securities in order to increase borrowing activity
Please explain the relationship between bond market and money market. Explain the process how an increase in the money supply by the Fed lowers the interest rate through the BOND MARKET to reach the new equilbrium interest rate. Explain the impact of increase in GDP on the interest rate.
A series of oil price increases in the 1970s drove the U.S. economy into stagflation.
