Which monetary policy tool can the Federal Reserve use to conduct an expansionary monetarypolicy (please state at least one instrument)? Which monetary policy instrument can the Fed useto conduct a restrictive monetary policy? Assume the country is experiencing highunemployment and a recession, such as during 2001, 2008-2009, and 2020. What is the Fedlikely to do in this scenario? Discuss the effects of such policy on the economy. Can you givea specific example to what the Fed did during any of those recessions? This is not a writing, it is economic.
Suppose that the Fed sets the interest rate and adjusts the money supply accordingly (i.e., horizontal LM curve) and the economy is in recession. (a) In this part, suppose also that private business investment spending depends only on sales expectations. What kind of policy mix would be able to increase output? Why? Explain. [Hint: Begin with showing the implications of assumptions first.] (b) In this part, suppose also that private business investment spending depends on both sales expectations and the rate of interest. How would your answer in part (a) change? What if the interest rate is already equal to zero (i.e., the zero lower bound). What kind of policy mix would be able to increase output? Why? Explain.
