Suppose there is a permanent decrease in the U.S. money supply. Trace the short-run and longrun effects on the current and expected exchange rate, interest rate, and price level. Draw the twosided diagram to help explain your answer. Also draw the time paths of each of these variables. (We assume the economy starts with all variables at their long-run levels and that output remains constant as the economy adjusts to the changes in money supply, i.e. real output Y is given.) Include in your answer a brief description of how exchange rate overshooting or undershooting may appear in this case. Suppose the Federal Reserve wants to fix the U.S. exchange rate with the yen at $0.008 per yen. If the equilibrium market exchange rate were significantly lower at $0.007 per yen, what would the Fed need to do to maintain the fixed rate of $0.008 per yen? What would be the effect of these actions on the money supply in the U.S.? Explain. Upon reading in the newspaper that the dollar…
With respect to their impact on aggregate demand for the U.S. economy, which of the following represents the cor-rect ordering of the wealth effect, interest-rate effect, and exchange-rate effect from most important to least im-portant?a. wealth effect, exchange-rate effect, interest-rate effectb. exchange-rate effect, interest-rate effect, wealth effectc. interest-rate effect, wealth effect, exchange-rate effectd. interest-rate effect, exchange-rate effect, wealth effect
This question considers how the FX market will respond to changes in monetary policy in South Korea. For these questions, define the exchange rate as South Korean won per Japanese yen, Ewon/¥. Use the FX and money market diagrams to answer the following questions. On all graphs, label the initial equilibrium point A. a. Suppose the Bank of Korea permanently decreases its money supply. Illustrate the short-run (label equilibrium point B) and long-run effects (label equilibrium point C) of this policy. b. Now, suppose the Bank of Korea announces it plans to permanently decrease its money supply but doesn’t actually implement this policy. How will this affect the FX market in the short run if investors believe the Bank of Korea’s announcement? Please illustrate your answer graphically as well labeling the short run equilibrium B. c. Finally, suppose the Bank of Korea permanently decreases its money supply, but this change is not anticipated. When the Bank of Korea…
Consider the relationship among exchange-rate changes, aggregate demand, and monetary policy. Assume we begin in a situation with real GDP equal to Y∗.Y*. Suppose the world price for raw materials rises because of growing demand for these products. Given that Canada is a net exporter of raw materials, what is the likely effect on Canadian aggregate demand? Show this in an AD/AS diagram (assuming no change in the exchange rate). Suppose instead that there is an increase in the demand by foreigners for Canadian financial assets such as government bonds. What is the direct effect on Canadian aggregate demand? Show this in an AD/AS diagram (assuming again no change in the exchange rate). Both of the shocks described above are likely to cause an appreciation of the Canadian dollar on foreign-exchange markets. As the Canadian dollar appreciates, what are the effects on aggregate demand in part (a) and in part (b)? Show these “secondary” effects in your diagram and explain. Given your…
Suppose the Federal Reserve purchases $1,000,000worth of foreign assets.a. If the Federal Reserve purchases the foreign assetswith $1,000,000 in currency, show the effect of thisopen market operation, using T-accounts. Whathappens to the monetary base?
Assume that the central bank of Country X wants the economy to be in full-employment equilibrium. What open-market operation should the central bank initiate? Given your answer in part (c), what will be the effect of the central bank’s open-market operation on each of the following in the short run? The nominal interest rate Employment. Explain. Assume that the real interest rate increases in Country X. Will the international value of Country X’s currency increase, decrease, or remain unchanged on the foreign exchange market? Explain. Assume that Country X’s financial account (formerly called capital account) balance is initially zero. Given your answer to part (e), will its financial account balance now be in surplus, be in deficit, or remain at zero?

Consider the following: C = 400 + 0.5·(Y – T) I = 80 + 0.1·Y – 1000·(i – πe + x)NX = 0.01·Y*– 0.1·Y – 4·(E – 100) G = 600 T = 480 Y* = 20,000 The central bank anchored inflation expectations at target inflation rate of π̅= 0.02. Household borrowing rates and businesses include a 4% risk premium over policy rate (i) so: x - 0.04. The central bank has set policy rate equal to 2% (, ī = 0.02). The Exchange rate (E) is 100.
