Use the figure below for the following questions. Figure 30-1 -Refer to Figure 30-1. If the current money supply is located at MS₁ and the value of money is 2, what is the excess demand or supply?

Velocity in the country of Nemedia is always stable. In 2009, the money supply was $100 billion and real GDP was $300 billion. In 2010, the money supply increased by 10 percent, real GDP increased by 5 percent, and nominal GDP equalled $660 billion. By how much did the price level increase between 2009 and 2010?

Which of the following best describes the impact of open-market purchases by the Bank of Canada?

Which of the following are people required to report on income tax forms?

Assuming that velocity is stable, if real GDP grows by 10 percent this year, and if the money supply does not change this year, how does the price level change?

When prices are falling, which of the following terms do economists use?

Using separate graphs, demonstrate what happens to the money supply, money demand, the value of money, and the price level if: a.the Bank of Canada increases the money supply. b.people decide to demand less money at each value of money.

In this problem we try to establish a link between the quantity equation, M^dV = PY, and the money demand-money supply diagram (M^d is the quantity of money demanded). -Show in your graph how this curve changes when Y changes.

The quantity theory implies that if output and velocity are constant, then a 50 percent increase in the money supply would lead to less than a 50 percent increase in the price level.

You put money in an account that earns 6 percent. The inflation rate is 4 percent, and your marginal tax rate is 10 percent. Which of the following is your after-tax real rate of interest?

In 2009, Canadian economic activity was reduced by approximately 2.5 percent. What would our money demand-money supply model predict would happen to prices if money supply and velocity would have remained constant? Did this happen in reality? (Hint: to answer this question, you will need to look for information about the inflation level in 2009.) If you have found that your prediction was not supported by data, why do you think this happened?
