Right now, the Federal Reserve is trying to reduce its balance sheet by making open marketsales. Use the market for reserves supply and demand model to show what would happen to thefederal funds rate, non-borrowed reserves, and borrowed reserves. (Assume that in the initialequilibrium, the downward-sloping part of the demand curve intersects the vertical part of thesupply curve. Be sure to label your graph and clearly state what happens to the federal fundsrate, borrowed reserves, and non-borrowed reserves.)b) Now, let's suppose that the Federal Reserve doesn't want to change the federal funds rate andwants to counteract the policy explained in the previous graph. What can the Federal Reserve doto keep the federal funds rate at its initial value (before the open market sale)? Clearly state apolicy different from open market operations to achieve this
Assume that the following asset values (in millions of dollars) exist in Ironmania: Federal Reserve Notes in circulation = $700; Money market mutual funds (MMMFs) held by individuals = $400; Corporate bonds = $300; Iron ore deposits = $50; Currency in commercial banks = $100; Savings deposits, including money market deposit accounts (MMDAs) = $140; Checkable deposits = $1500; Small-denominated (less than $100,000) time deposits = $100; Coins in circulation = $40. Recall, M1 equals Federal Reserve Notes in circulation plus checkable deposits plus Coins in circulation. M2 equals M1 plus Savings deposits, including Money market deposit accounts (MMDAs) plus Small-denominated (less than $100,000) time deposits plus Money Market Mutual Funds (MMMFs) held by individuals. 1.1 What is M1 in Ironmania? 1.2.

To understand the important role played by banks in the economy, we need to imagine a world without banks. REQUIRED: A. Explain how economic transactions between household savers of funds and corporate users of funds would occur in a world without financial intermediaries. Identify and explain three economic disincentives that probably would dampen the flow of funds between household savers of funds and corporate users of funds in an economic world without financial intermediaries. Identify and explain the two functions in which FIs may specialize that would enable the smooth flow of funds from household savers to corporate users. In what sense are the financial claims of FIs considered secondary securities, while the financial claims of commercial corporations are considered primary securities?
The equilibrium rate of interest in the market for money is determined by the intersection of the A) supply-of-money curve and the asset-demand-for-money curve.
