- Which of the following statements concerning the demand for money is false? The speculative demand for money varies directly with the level of national income. The transactions, precautionary, and speculative demands for money all vary inversely with the level of interest.

- Suppose the money market for some hypothetical economy is given by the following graph, which plots the money demand and money supply curves. Assume the central bank in this economy (the Fed) fixes the quantity of money supplied. Suppose the price level decreases from 90 to 75. Shift the appropriate curve on the graph to show the impact of a decrease in the overall price level on the market for money. Following the price level decrease, the quantity of money demanded at the initial interest rate of 6% will be (greater/less) than the quantity of money supplied by the Fed at this interest rate. As a result, individuals will attempt to (increase/decrease) their money holdings. In order to do so, they will (buy/sell) bonds and other interest-bearing assets, and bond issuers will realize that they (have to offer higher/can offer lower) interest rates until equilibrium is restored in the money market at an interest rate of________% The following graph plots the…arrow_forwardShow the effects of a change in the nominal interest rate and a change in real GDP using the demand for money curve.arrow_forwardAnswer to 2 decimal digitsarrow_forward
