For this question, assume that the Fed sets monetary policy according to the Taylor rule. Suppose current U.S. macroeconomic conditions are represented by the following: π < π?* and u > un. Given this information, we would expect that the Fed will: A.implement a monetary contraction. B.more information is need to answer this question. C.maintain its current stance of monetary policy. D.implement a monetary expansion. Which of the following would cause an increase in M1? A.a reduction in the required ratio of reserves to deposits B.an increase in the discount rate C.an open market operation where the Fed buys bonds D.thes all of these E.none of these

A country's central bank is engaging in monetary contraction, with M going from M0=40 to M1=20. Its economy is as follows. Goods: slc = 3 MPC = 0.7 G = 10 T = 9 Before the policy, the goods market equilibrium is at Y0 = 54. Financial: I = 18-200r Before the policy, the loans market equilibrium is at r = 4.25% and I = 9.5 Money: M0 = 40 P0 = 2 M/P = 0.02 / (r - Y/5000)^2 and finally, Labor: w = MPL = 0.5 * 4.5 * 16^0.5 / L^0.5 w = EP / P0 * L^0.5 Where workers currently expect the price level of EP=2. How does the monetary contraction directly and immediately affect the goods market?   There are four endogenous variables that adjust in response to shock/policy: Y, I, r, P. The policy variable of interest is M. Therefore, let's approach our solution by first recognizing that all other letters are just constants and plug them in. For example: Y = 2 + 0.5(Y-6)+7+I becomes Y = 12 + 2*I First, express the goods market as expenditure being a linear function of investment I of the form: Y = a…

Question 7. Using the models learned in class, graphically illustrate and explain the impact of the following policy and explain your answer. Suppose the Bank of Canada reduces the money supply by 5%. a. What happens to the aggregate demand curves? b. What happens to the level of output and the price level in the short run and in the long run? c. What happens to the real interested rate in the short run and in the long run?

Suppose inflation is still high be mid-2022 and the Fed chair announces his/her policy. Suppose his or her approach to monetary policy can be summarized by the following statement: “I care only about inflation. Unemployment is at very low levels for quite some time” b) What would be the effect on the aggregate demand curve?
