supply, because lending activity is subject
to rapid changes
an expansion of the money supply that is
less than the growth of output during the
same period will generally result in
deflation
O effects of changes in money supply are
seen in output before they are seen in
prices
central banks should focus on minimizing
the legal interest rates paid to depositors,
as ensuring the safety of banks was the
most important goal

- b) discuss how monetarists and keynesians view the role of government in relation to market intervention.arrow_forwardDuring a period of high inflation, a country's central bank decides to use a monetarist model, which focuses on controlling the money supply to stabilize prices. The bank implements policies to reduce the growth rate of the money supply, based on the theory that inflation is primarily caused by excessive growth in money supply. The main goal of adopting a monetarist approach in this case is to:A) Increase the money supplyB) Control inflation and stabilize the economyC) Decrease government spending and taxesD) Encourage rapid economic growth Note:- Please avoid using ChatGPT and refrain from providing handwritten solutions; otherwise, I will definitely give a downvote.

The arguments were listed as: Proposition 1: Monetary Policy has powerful short-run effects on the real economy. In the long run, however, changes in the money supply have their primary effect on the price level. Proposition 2: Despite the powerful short-run effect of money on the economy, there is little scope for using Monetary Policy actively to try to smooth business cycle. Proposition 3: Even if there is some scope for using Monetary Policy to smooth business cycles, the Central Bank (the Federal Reserve) cannot be relied on to do so effectively. Proposition 4: The Central Bank (the Federal Reserve) should choose a specific monetary aggregate (such as M1 or M2) and commit itself to making that aggregate grow at a fixed percentage rate, year in and year out.

Changes in the velocity of money are unpredictable. Aggregate demand depends on money velocity but not on the money supply. The economy is unstable; wages and prices are inflexible. The short-run aggregate supply curve slopes upward. Initially, the economy is in long-term equilibrium. Suppose there is an increase in velocity-that is, there is an increase in the average number of times a dollar is spent to buy goods and services. Show the long-run effect of this change according to the monetarist view, ceteris paribus, by dragging one or both curves on the graph below.
