- Refer to table below. Suppose that the Fed had decided to set the U.S. money supply in December 1932 and in December 1933 at the same value as in December 1930. a. Assuming that the values of currency held by the public and the reserve-deposit ratio had remained as given in the table, what should the values of bank reserves be to reach the stated target for the U.S. money supply? Instruction: enter all responses rounded to two decimal places Money Supply Currency held by public Reserve-deposit ratio Actual Bank reserves Needed Bank reserves December 1930 $44.1 billion $3.85 billion 0.075 $3.31 billion $3.31 billion December 1932 $44.1 billion $4.82 billion 0.109 $3.18 billion billion December 1933 $44.1 billion $4.85 billion 0.133 $3.45 billion billion b. In order to accomplish this objective, the Fed would have had to conduct open market purchases to increase bank reserves by $ _______ billion in 1932 and $_________ billion in 1934.Consider two countries, Canada (Home) and US (Foreign). In 2018, Canada experienced relatively slow output growth (2%), whereas US had relatively robust output growth (4.2%). Suppose the Bank of Canada allowed the money supply to grow by 2% each year, whereas the Federal Reserve (Fed), the US central bank, chose to maintain relatively high money growth of 10% per year. For the following questions, use the simple monetary model (where I is constant).Consider the general monetary model, in which L is no longer assumed constant and money demand is inversely related to the nominal interest rate. In addition to the scenario described in the beginning of the question, the bank deposits in Canada pay 3% interest. Suppose the Fed increases the money growth rate from 10% to 12% and the inflation rate rises proportionately (one for one) with this increase. Using time series diagrams, illustrate how this increase in the money growth rate affects the US money supply, interest rate, prices, real…1.Discuss THREE monetary strategies currently implemented in the commonwealth of Dominica.2.

What is the critical difference in the assumptions that changed this finding and what is your own assessment of their plausibility? Does the W–M–M theorem hold or not hold in modern developed economies? Does it do so in the LDCs with poorly developed financial markets? Discuss.(ii) If currency (a fiat money) is intrinsically useless for firms and households, are demand/checking deposits also intrinsically useless for them? Why, then, do they hold these when there are other highly liquid assets such as savings deposits and money market mutual funds (MMMF) that offer higher returns than demand deposits? If the only demand for checking deposits is for holding savings, as in the OLG models of money, why do banks offer such checking accounts and not confine themselves to savings and term deposit accounts? Why do they offer the latter rather than…1)Identify one possible expansionary monetary policy. 2)Carefully explain in as much detail as possible, how the chosen action will impact the money market? 3)illustrated the overall impact of the chosen action on the money market In 2019, while there was a mixed approach to monetary policy-setting in the Caribbean, overall the monetary policy stance in the region remained accommodative.
