Question
4. If nominal money demand doubles and the real money supply also does what happens to...


Answers
(4) (c)
Nominal money supply = Real money supply x Price level, therefore
% Change in Nominal money supply = % Change in Nominal money supply + % Change in Price level
100% = 100% + % Change in Price level
% Change in Price level = 0
(5)
If Fed sells government securities, money supply would increase, the money base would increase, the money multiplier would remain the same and amount of currency would remain the same and amount of deposits would increase. Such action would shift money supply curve to the right, and cause the interest rate to decrease.

Money supply (MS) = Currency (C) + Deposits (D)
1200 = D + (D/5)
1200 = 6D/5
Deposit (D) = (1200 x 5)/6 = 1000
Currency (C) = 1000/5 = 200
Currency-deposit ratio (cr) = C/D = 200/1000 = 0.5
Reserve-deposit ratio (rr) = R/D = 100/1000 = 0.1
Money multiplier = (1 + cr) / (cr + rr) = (1 + 0.5) / (0.5 + 0.1) = 1.5 / 0.6 = 2.5
Reserve ratio = 0.1
