All other things being equal, by how much will nominal GDP expand if the central bank increases the money supply by $110 billion, and the velocity of money is 3.2? (Enter your answer in billions of dollars. That is, if you find an expansion of 1 billion enter 1 for your answer.)
Suppose that this year's money supply is $1,200 billion, nominal GDP is $6,000 billion and real GDP is $5,000 billion. (This question concerns the Equation of Exchange in the Classical Quantity Theory of Money). a) What is the price level (expressed as a percentage-i.e., as a price index)? b) What is the velocity of money? c) Suppose that velocity is constant and the economy's output of goods and services rises by 6 percent each year. If the Fed keeps the money supply constant, what will nominal GDP be next year? d) Under the conditions in c) what will happen to the price level next year? e) What money supply should the Fed set next year if it wants to keep the price level stable? 1) What money supply should the Fed set next year if it wants the inflation rate to be 8 percent?
2. Suppose that in the U.S., the income velocity of money (V) is constant. Suppose, too, that every year, real GDP grows by 2.5 percent (%ΔY/year = 0.025) and the supply of money grows by 10 percent (%ΔM/year = 0.10). a. According to the Quantity Theory of Money, what would be the growth rate of nominal GDP = P×Y? Hint: %Δ(X×Y)  %ΔX + %ΔY.
