B) If money growth increases by 1.5 percentage points and consumption growth increases by 0.5 percentage points, what is the new rate of spending growth?

Consider again the economy with a total money supply of $2 million and nominal GDP of $6 million. In this economy, the money supply is growing at a rate of 3 percent per year, prices are falling at a rate of 1 percent, and velocity is constant. This economy's real output is growing at a rate of _________ percent. (Enter your answer "as a percent, but without a percentage sign." In other words, if you think output is growing at a rate of 99.99%, enter only 99.99 in the blank. Use a positive sign to indicate an increase and a negative sign to indicate a decrease.)
Do not type in dollar signs or round any of your answers. In year one, the money supply (M) is equal to 500, the velocity of money (V) is 5, and the price level is 1.0. According to the equation of exchange, in year 1, nominal and real GDP are both equal to In year 2, the money supply is increased to 530.4 and velocity is unchanged. If the economy grew at the rate of 4 percent, real GDP in year 2 is equal to while nominal GDP in year 2 is equal to As a result of the Fed's decision to increase the money supply from 500 to 530.4, the price level rose from 1.0 to indicating that the inflation rate was percent.
Suppose the supply of money, measured by M1, is $3.0 trillion, output, measured by real GDP, is $18.7 trillion, and the velocity of money is 7.1. Suppose the supply of money increases to $3.7 trillion but GDP and the velocity of money do not change. What is the percent by which prices change? Provide your answer as a percentage rounded to two decimal places. Do not include any symbols, such as "$," "," "%," or "," in your answer. Your Answer: Answer
Suppose that this year's money supply is $600 billion, nominal GDP is $15 trillion, and real GDP is $3 trillion. The price level is , and the velocity of money is . Suppose that velocity is constant and the economy's output of goods and services rises by 4 percent each year. Use this information to answer the questions that follow. If the Fed keeps the money supply constant, the price level will , and nominal GDP will . True or False: If the Fed wants to keep the price level stable instead, it should keep the money supply unchanged next year. True False If the Fed wants an inflation rate of 9 percent instead, it should the money supply by . (Hint: The quantity equation can be rewritten as the following percentage change formula: (Percentage Change in M)+(Percentage Change in V)=(Percentage Change in P)+(Percentage Change in Y)Percentage Change in M+Percentage Change in V=Percentage Change in P+Percentage Change in Y.)
If the money supply is growing at a rate of 6 percent per year, real GDP (real output) is growing at a rate of 2 percent per year, and velocity is constant, what will the inflation rate be? 4%. (Enter your response as an integer value.) If the money supply is growing at a rate of 6 percent per year, real GDP (real output) is growing at a rate of 2 percent per year, and velocity is growing at 2 percent per year instead of remaining constant, what will the inflation rate be? %. (Enter your response as an integer value.)
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?
Suppose that the Price level = 120, Supply of Money = $20 billion, and Real GDP = $4 billion. If the velocity of the money stays the same but Real GDP increases by 5%, what will happen to the price level if the supply of money increases by $5 billion? Select one: a. It will increase to 142.9 b. It will increase to 135.4 c. It will increase to 128.5 d. It will increase to 122.5 e. It will stay 120. These changes are offsetting
Suppose that this year's money supply is $500 billion, nominal GDP is $10 trillion, and real GDP is $5 trillion. The price level is 2, and the velocity of money is 20 Suppose that velocity is constant and the economy's output of goods and services rises by 4 percent each year. Use this information to answer the questions that follow. If the Fed keeps the money supply constant, the price level will fall by 4% and nominal GDP will stay the same True or False: If the Fed wants to keep the price level stable instead, it should increase the money supply by 4% next year. True False If the Fed wants an inflation rate of 11 percent instead, it should be rewritten as the following percentage change formula: the money supply by %. (Hint: The quantity equation can (Percentage Change in M) + (Percentage Change in V) = (Percentage Change in P) + (Percentage Change in Y).)
The money supply in Freedonia this year is $150 billion. Nominal GDP is $750 billion and real GDP is $250 billion. Assuming that velocity of money is stable, real GDP grows by 2% this year, and the money supply does not change. What are the velocity, price level, and inflation rate this year?
Suppose real GDP is equal to $100 trillion, the money supply is equal to $50 trillion and the price level is equal to 2. In this case, the velocity of money is equal to ________.
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?
