International Gold Standard (19th century): If different countries fix the price of their currencies e in terms of gold this immediately implies that e are fixed. If the Central Bank of two countries stand ready to buy and sell gold at a fixed price in terms of their respective domestic currencies, then there is only one value of e that eliminates the possibility of arbitrage. Suppose that S100 buys 1 ounce of gold and 100 pounds buys lounce of gold. Under fixed exchange rates, this implies that IS buys Ipound.

Consider two countries, Canada (Home) and US (Foreign). In 2018, Canada experienced relatively slow output growth (2%), whereas US had relatively robust output growth (4.2%). Suppose the Bank of Canada allowed the money supply to grow by 2% each year, whereas the Federal Reserve (Fed), the US central bank, chose to maintain relatively high money growth of 10% per year. For the following questions, use the simple monetary model (where I is constant).Consider the general monetary model, in which L is no longer assumed constant and money demand is inversely related to the nominal interest rate. In addition to the scenario described in the beginning of the question, the bank deposits in Canada pay 3% interest. Suppose the Fed increases the money growth rate from 10% to 12% and the inflation rate rises proportionately (one for one) with this increase. Using time series diagrams, illustrate how this increase in the money growth rate affects the US money supply, interest rate, prices, real…
