(a) Explain the meaning of velocity of money (b) Suppose the money supply M has been growing at 10% per year, and nominal GDP, PY, has been growing at 20% per year. The data are as follows (in billions of dollars): Year 2018 2019 2020 M 100 110 121 PY 1000 1200 1440 Calculate the velocity for each year. At what rate is the velocity growing? (c) Calculate what happens to nominal GDP if velocity remains constant at 5 and the money supply increases from $200 billion to $300 billion.
