Question 1
a. Increasing prices erode the purchasing power of the dollar. It is interesting to compute what goods would have cost at some point in the past after adjusting for inflation. Go to the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, FRED database website at https://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/and find the consumer price index for all urban consumers. What would a car that cost $25,000 today have cost the year 1996?
b. Many countries have central banks that are responsible for their nation’s monetary policy. Go to www.bis.org/cbanks.htm and select one of the central banks (for example, ECB, Norway). Review that bank’s Web site to determine its policies regarding application of monetary policy. How does this bank’s policies compare to those of the U.S. central bank?
Briefly explain the quantity theory of money and how it is related to inflation.
Briefly describe the "Quantity Theory of Money."
