Consider a model economy in which each young person receives 200 units of the consumption good. There are 50 young people born each period. The total stock of fiat money is constant and equal to $10,000. Suppose a person's preferences are such that they only want to consume when old and they dislike risk. We assume the probability that a person moves is 10 percent. The gross return on capital is 1.10. A bank accepts deposits from all young people. a. What is the state contingent rate of return oşered by banks on deposits? b. Write down the money market-clearing condition for this economy. c. Compute the equilibrium value of money for this economy. [Champ, Bruce/Freeman, Scott/Haslag, Joseph. Modeling Monetary Economies]

Consider the following functions for consumption and investment: C = 1,000 + (2/3)*(Y – T) and I = 1,200 – 100*r. Furthermore, Y = 8,000, G = 2500, T = 2,000. Compute private, public, and national savings for this economy, and find the equilibrium real interest rate (r). Assume that G declines by 500 units. How will it change your answers in part (a)? What happens to the national savings, given everything else, if the public decides to consume less out of their disposable income (assume that the propensity of consume falls by 10 percent)? Given your answer in part (c), what happens to investment and real interest rate? Answer all four.
If you draw the cash flows from any investment, you would have negative cash flows at the beginning, and then you would receive a stream of positive cash flows thereafter. So why do we need the separate concept of a J-curve? In other words, what is the difference between a J-curve and the cash profile of any other investment?
Suppose as a hypothetical scenario that you deposit $400 today into a savings account with a variable interest rate and will collect a payment in one year. True or False: If over the course of the year the interest rate falls, this increases the future value of your investment. True False

1. How does the U.S. savings rate compare to that of another country? 2. How is the U.S. doing? 3. What does the Bible say about saving and/or investing? According to Prov. 13:22, Prov. 22:7, Rom. 13:8, Matt. 25:14-30, and Luke 19:12-26.
A consumer lives three periods, called the learning period, the working period, and the retirement period. Her income is 150 during the learning period, 1000 during the working period, and 400 during the retirement period. The consumer's initial assets are 100. The real interest rate is zero. The consumer desires perfectly smooth consumption over her lifetime. What are consumption and saving in each period, assuming no borrowing constraints (saving can be negative)? Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion
The amount that personal households and nonprofit organizations have invested in time and savings deposits can be modeled by D(t) = 65.3(t-3.3)²+ 4585 where D(t) represents the amount in billions of dollars the households and nonprofit organizations have deposited in time and savings accounts t years since 2002. How much did personal households and nonprofit organizations have invested in 2013? Round your final answer to two decimal places.

2. In a two-period model, Jennifer expects to earn income of £15,000 in the second period but nothing in the current period; whereas Martin has income of £15,000 in the current period (everything adjusted for inflation). The real interest rate for both borrowing and lending is 30%. a) What is the present value of Jennifer’s future income? b) Show diagrammatically why Martin is better off than Jennifer. c) Show diagrammatically the impact of a fall in the interest rate for both Martin and Jennifer. Is it possible for a fall in interest rates to make Jennifer better off than Martin? d) Comment briefly on the implication of your answer to part (c) for the effectiveness of monetary policy carried out by changing the central bank interest rate.
Suppose consumption in year 2 (C2) is on the horizontal axis and consumption in year 1 (C1) is on the vertical axis. How would an increase in the interest rate affect the consumer's choices? (which curve(s) would shift/change shape and how?) You may, but do not have to, draw a diagram.
