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.

In an economy, the money supply growth rate is 5.0%, the equilibrium real interest rate is 1.5%, the potential growth rate is 4.0%, the economic growth rate is 1.0%, the inflation rate is 3.0%, the unemployment rate is 4.5%, and the rate of increase in the circulation speed is -2%. In this case, in an economy that pursues an inflation target of 2.0%, what is the appropriate interest rate target based on Taylor's rule?

A standard "money demand" function used by macroeconomists has the form In(m)=Bo+B₁In(GDP) + B₂R, Where m is the quantity of (real) money, GDP is the value of (real) gross domestic product, and R is the value of the nominal interest rate measured in percent per year. Supposed that B₁ = 1.51 and ₂ = -0.07. What is the expected change in m if GDP increases by 6%? The value of m is expected to (Round your respon by approximately %. ger) increase decrease

"In the framework of intertemporal choice theory, how does the introduction of a perfectly anticipated inflation affect the consumption - saving decision of a rational consumer with access to capital markets?" a) It encourages immediate consumption due to the decreased purchasing power of future savings. b) It has no effect on the consumption - saving decision since rational consumers are only influenced by real interest rates. c) It leads to increased savings as consumers anticipate higher nominal returns on savings in the future. d) It prompts consumers to invest in physical assets rather than save, diversifying away from monetary assets that are affected by inflation.

Suppose the public expects a 7 percent inflation rate, while the Federal Reserve unexpectedly allows the money growth rate to be 4 percent. In the short run, we expect that investment spending by firms will and consumer durable spending will 000 decrease; decrease increase; increase decrease; increase increase; decrease
It is not possible for the total value of production to increase unless the money supply also increases. After all, how can the value of the goods and services being bought and sold increase unless there is more money available.explain the assertion using the equation M = money supply, V = velocity of money, P = price level, Y = real GDP.
Assume GDP is currently $10,850 billion per year and the quantity of money is $833 billion. What is the velocity of money?
For the next two questions, consider an economy that has the following information: Its money supply is $2000, growing at a rate of 3 percent annually. The average dollar in this economy is spent 5 times per year. The price level is $2.5; inflation is 2 percent per year. We assume that velocity (income velocity of money) is constant. Calculate this economy's real output. Enter only numbers and a decimal point in your answer as needed. Round your answer to two decimal places as necessary.
A) Suppose the Fed conducts an open market purchase by buying $10 million in Treasury bonds from Acme Bank. Sketch out the balance sheet changes that will occur as Acme converts the bond sale proceeds to new loans. The initial Acme bank balance sheet contains the following information: Assets – reserves 30, bonds 50, and loans 50; Liabilities – deposits 300 and equity 30. B) All other things being equal, by how much will nominal GDP expand if the central bank increases the money supply by $100 billion, and the velocity of money is 3? C) Using your answer for C, answer the following: Suppose now that economists expect the velocity of money to increase by 50% as a result of the monetary stimulus. What will be the total increase in nominal GDP?
Suppose a country has a money demand function (M/P)ª = kY, where k is a constant parameter. The money supply grows by 12 percent per year, and real income grows by 4 percent per year. a. What is the average inflation rate? b. How would inflation be different if real income growth were higher? Explain. c. How do you interpret the parameter k? What is its relationship to the velocity of money? d. Suppose, instead of a constant money demand function, the velocity of money in this economy was growing steadily because of financial innovation. How would that affect the inflation rate? Explain.
Economics Suppose that on January 1, 2022, the price of a one-year Treasury bill with a face value of $1,000-is $926,78 Investors expect that the inflation rate will be 4% during 2022, but at the end of the year, the inflation rate turns out to have been 1%. The nominal interest rate on the bill (measured as the yield to maturity) is% (Round your response to two decimal places)
