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 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. Expected future exchange rate is also 100. a) Find short-run equilibrium level of output (Y) and trade balance (NX). Is there a trade deficit or surplus? b) Assume the governent cuts tax level to ?′ = 400. What is the new short run equilibrium level of output (?′) and trade balance (NX'). Is this economy suffering from twin deficits (trade and budget). What policy change could help?c) what is the value of the fiscal multiplier fromt he tax cut? if it were a closed economy would it be greater or smaller? d) What effects will the tax cuts have on investments and on the…
All of the following items, except one, are part of the equation of exchange. Which is the exception? Multiple Choice a)Real output. b) The interest rate. c)The money supply. d)The velocity of money. e)The price level.
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. Expected future exchange rate is also 100. Then assume the governent cuts tax level from T=480 to T′ = 400: a) Find the short run equilibrium level of output and trade balance? a) If the economy was at potential before, what effects will the tax cut form 480 to 400 have on investments and on trade balance in the medium run?
For this question, let it represent the interest rate on the U.S. one-year discount bond, i ∗ t represent the interest rate on the British one-year discount bond, and E represent the dollar price of the British pound. Assume that policy makers are pursuing a flexible exchange rate regime, and that P is fixed (therefore, ignore any AS/AD analysis.) (a) Suppose the Fed decides to increase the money supply. Based on your understanding of the market for foreign exchange, graphically illustrate and explain what effect this expansionary monetary policy will have on the market for foreign exchange and on the exchange rate (E). (b) Now, suppose there are two countries identical in every way with the following exception: country A is closed in terms of both the goods and financial markets while country B is open with a flexible exchange rate regime. Further suppose that the central banks in both countries increase the money supply by the same amount. Briefly explain the extent to which, if…
Question 2 If a country wants to keep its exchange rate unchanged, then the Central Bank must sacrifice full oversight of monetary policy. Is the statement true or false. Explain your answer. (b) With the existing economic development, it is found that monetary policy is not always in accordance with the theory. Therefore Robert Lucas and Thomas Sargent then developed an analysis to evaluate monetary policy theory, and then Lucas and Sargent explained rational expectations. Explain what is meant by rational expectation and how it impacts the effectiveness of monetary policy. ..
Consider two countries: Japan and South Korea. In 1996 Japan experienced relatively slow output growth (1%), while South Korea had relatively robust output growth (5%). Suppose the Bank of Japan allowed the money supply to grow by 1% each year, while the Bank of Korea chose to maintain relatively high money growth of 15% per year. Treat South Korea as the home country and Japan as the foreign country, and use the simple monetary model (with constant L) to answer the following questions: a. What is the inflation rate in South Korea ()? How about Japan ()? b. What is the expected rate of depreciation in the Korean won relative to the Japanese yen? c. Suppose the Bank of Korea decreases the money growth rate from 15% to 10%. What is the new inflation rate in South Korea? d. Using time series diagrams (impulse graphs), illustrate how this decrease in the money growth rate affects South Korea’s nominal money supply MK; prices PK, real money…
Which of the following statements is false? a. The exchange equation assumes that velocity is constant. b. Velocity is the average number of times a dollar is spent to buy final goods and services in a year. c. The simple quantity theory of money predicts that changes in the money supply lead to strictly proportional changes in the price level. d. In the simple quantity theory of money the aggregate supply curve is vertical.
