![**Monetary Policy and its Impact**
**Diagrams:**
1. **Money Market Diagram:**
- The first graph represents the Money Market with interest rate (i) on the vertical axis and the quantity of money (MS/MD) on the horizontal axis.
- The downward sloping curve is the Money Demand (MD) curve.
- The vertical line is the Money Supply (MS) curve.
- The intersection of MD and MS curves determines the equilibrium point (E).
2. **Macro Economy Diagram:**
- The second graph represents the macro economy with the price level (P) on the vertical axis and real output (AD/AS) on the horizontal axis.
- The upward sloping curve is the Aggregate Supply (AS) curve.
- The downward sloping curve is the Aggregate Demand (AD) curve.
- The intersection of AD and AS curves determines the equilibrium point (E).
**Questions and Instructions:**
5. **Impact of Decreasing the Discount Rate:**
- When the Federal Reserve (the Fed) decreases the discount rate, it typically results in an increase in the money supply since borrowing becomes cheaper.
- **Money Market:**
- Draw a rightward shift of the Money Supply (MS) curve.
- The new intersection with the Money Demand (MD) curve will show a lower interest rate and higher quantity of money.
- **Macro Economy:**
- An increase in money supply lowers interest rates, encourages investment and consumption, shifting the Aggregate Demand (AD) curve to the right.
- This can lead to a higher price level and increased output in the short run.
6. **Impact of Selling Government Bonds:**
- When the Fed sells government bonds, it removes money from circulation, leading to a decrease in the money supply.
- **Money Market:**
- Draw a leftward shift of the Money Supply (MS) curve.
- The new intersection with the Money Demand (MD) curve will show a higher interest rate and lower quantity of money.
- **Macro Economy:**
- A decrease in money supply raises interest rates, discourages investment and consumption, shifting the Aggregate Demand (AD) curve to the left.
- This can lead to a lower price level and decreased output in the short run.
7. **Selling Government Bonds and Inflation:**
