Suppose that an economy has a constant nominal money supply, a constant level of real output Y = 1500, and a constant real interest rate r = 0.05, and it’s expected rate of inflation is 2%, i.e, πe = .02. Suppose that the income elasticity of money demand is ηY = 0.5 and the interest elasticity of demand ηi = –0.2. (a) Suppose that Y decreases to 1425, r remains constant at 0.05 and there is no change in the expected rate of inflation. What is the percentage change in the equilibrium price level? (b) Suppose that r increases to 0.06 and Y remains at 1500. Assuming that expected inflation remains at πe = .02, what is the percentage change in the equilibrium price level? (c) Suppose that r increases to 0.06. Assuming that πe = .02, what would real output have to be for the equilibrium price level to remain at its initial value?

Exercise 1 cr+1 Consider the money supply Ms=mxB , m = cr+rr Assume that the demand for real money is given by the equation (M/P)d=0.25Y, and that the output has been growing 3% per year. Assume, further, that you have been called before Congress to testify about the long-run effects of increasing the growth of the money supply to 10 % per year. 1. State, compute and explain the long-run effects of this change on the inflation rate, on the nominal interest rate, on the real interest rate, on investment and on the real GDP. For each of them, argue both using the formulae that we studied and the macroeconomic dynamic beyond the effect. 2. Compute the implied money velocity. Suppose that the actual nominal value of the output (PY) is 1000, the value of the reserves is 50 and the toal value of the deposits is 75. Find the actual money multiplier. 3. State the different ways in which the central bank can achieve the change (+10%) in the money supply (think about the variables that can…
