- Consider a simple economy that produces only pens. The following table contains information on the economy's money supply, velocity of money, price level, and output. For example, in 2017, the money supply was $280, the price of a pen was $7.00, and the economy produced 600 pens. Fill in the missing values in the following table, selecting the answers closest to the values you calculate. Year Quantity of Money (Dollars) Velocity of Money Price Level (Dollars) Quantity of Output (Pens) Nominal GDP 2017 280 7.00 600 2018 294 15 600 The money supply grew at a rate of ____ % from 2017 to 2018. Since pen output did not change from 2017 to 2018 and the velocity of money (a. increased, b. decreased, c. remained the same), the change in the money supply was reflected (a. entirely, b. partially) in changes in the price level.
