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 that a country’s economy is in a short-run equilibrium and the actual unemployment rate is lower thanthe natural rate of unemployment.(a) Using a correctly labeled graph of the long-run aggregate supply curve, short-run aggregate supply curve,and aggregate demand curve, show each of the following.(i) Current price level, labeled PL1, and current output level, labeled (b) What open-market operation can the country’s central bank use to move the economy toward its long-runequilibrium?(c) Use a correctly labeled money-market graph to show how the country’s central bank action to move theeconomy toward its long-run equilibrium affects the equilibrium nominal interest rate in the short run.(d) Based on the interest rate change from part (c), will each of the following increase, decrease, or remain thesame in the short run?(i) Real output.

Question 4Suppose a country’s inflation level is higher than desired, and unemployment levels arelower than expected – the central bank decides that the economy is ‘overheated’ andattempts to use the appropriate monetary policy to deal with the situation. Describe,with the help of the appropriate figure, how a central bank might go about implementingsuch monetary policy, the subsequent effects this has on interest rates, the quantity ofmoney in the market, and the process through which this affects the level of expenditurein the economy.

Suppose country A has a central bank with full credibility, and country B has a central bank with no credibility. Assume that in 2020, both countries are hit with the same COVID-19 shock.If the both central banks announce an autonomous easing policy to reduce the unemployment rate,How does the credibility of each country’s central bank affect the speed of adjustment of the aggregate supply curve to policy announcements? How does this result affect output stability?
If velocity and aggregate output are reasonably constant(as the classical economists believed), what will happento the price level when the money supply increasesfrom $1 trillion to $4 trillion?
On the topic of "Stabilization Policies, Monetary Institutions and Strategies" Suppose that it there is an expected increase in the production productivity. Using AE/PC Model, explain the followings with the aid of graphs. a) What will be the impact on current inflation and on output if the central bank does not involve to the market (do nothing)? b) Assume that initially inflation equals to the central bank’s inflation target and an output gap of zero. When the shock occurs, what are the options that the central bank has to influence to the market?

Now, consider an economy in which the demand for money is of the formY(1 + it)for t = 0, 1, 2, · · · , where output is 150 and it denotes the nominal interest rate inperiod t. The REAL INTEREST RATE, denoted r, is constant and equal to 4%. In period0 and 1, the money supply is 100 and people expect that money supply wouldbe 100 forever. People have rational expectations. In period 2, the central banksurprises people and sets the money supply will grow at 2 percent forever, that is,M0 = 100, M1 = 100, M2 = (1.02)M1, M3 = (1.02)M2, and so on. A. Find the inflation rate, nominal interest rate, real money balance in period 1,and expected inflation in period 2, given the information available in period1, π1, i1,M1 / P1, and, E1π2. B.
