QUESTION THREE Assuming a constant velocity of money while the money supply is growing 10% per year, real GDP is growing at 4% per year, and the real interest rate is r = 8%. Assume that actual Inflation is equal to expected inflation. a) Find the value of the nominal interest rate in this economy b) If the central bank increases the money growth rate by 4% per year, find the change in the nominal interest rate Ai C) Suppose the growth rate of Y falls to 2% per year. What will happen to inflation? What must the central bank do if it wishes to keep inflation constant?
According to the long-run relationship between money growth, income growth, and the change in the price level, if European inflation is higher than U.S. inflation but money growth is the same, it must be that: a) real income growth in Europe and the United States is the same. b) real income growth in Europe is larger than real income growth in the United States. c) real income growth in the United States is higher than in Europe. d) the level of nominal income is higher in Europe than in the United States.
The aggregate economy of India has a rate of money growth equal to 7. Initially the velocity of money is not changing. The long-run aggregate supply curve equals 2 But then there is a banking panic, causing the growth rate of the velocity of money to fall to -6 percent per year. In the absence of government intervention, the resulting recession would last for 3 years (meaning it would grow at the recession growth rate for 3 years, then return to long-run equilibrium after that). Assume that just before the recession started, India's level of GDP was equal to $100 billion. Your boss has proposed that the government should step in and use fiscal policy to end the recession immediately. But Raj Kumar, a member of the opposition, has claimed that fiscal policy is too expensive, and anyways there is no reason to end the recession because it will end on its own. To counter his argument, your boss has asked you to calculate how much lower GDP would be by the end of the recession if the…
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.
28) When the Fed raises the federal funds rate A) the value of the dollar rises on the foreign exchange market. B) consumption increases. C) net exports increase. D) the value of the dollar falls on the foreign exchange market. 29) An inflation rate targeting rule A) reduces uncertainty about monetary policy. B) means that the inflation rate must exceed 5 percent in order for the rule to be effective. C) has been adopted the by the Fed in response to the financial crisis of 2008-2009. D) will not work if the Fed continues to sue open market operations.
According to the quantity theory, if constant growth in the money supply is combined with fluctuating velocity, which of the following is most likely to result? a) innovations relating to banking and finance b) unpredictable rises and falls in nominal GDP c) quantity of credit rises above where it otherwise be 4. d) monetary policy will become inevitably imprecise
In general, when there is less competition in the banking sector ( a lower supply of firms), nominal interests rates decrease, which makes it easier for business owners to obtain a loan. inflation decreases, which is better for the economy as a whole. nominal interest rates increase, which is good for businesses. nominal interest rates increase, making it more difficult for business owners to obtain loans, which is bad for the economy as a whole.

Suppose the money supply M has been growing at 19% per year and nominal GDP, PY, has been growing at 77% per year. The data are as follows (in billions of dollars). M PY V 2021 400 4000 2022 476 7080 2023 566.44 12,532 Calculate the velocity V in each year. (Fill in the table above, rounding to one decimal place.) Velocity is growing at an approximate rate of % per year. (Round to the nearest whole number.)
Actions by the Fed to fight rising rates of inflation likely will initially: (a) reduce long-term interest rates; (b) expand the size of the Fed’s balance sheet; (c) cause the Treasury Department to issue fewer repurchase agreements; (d) increase short-term interest rates
