3. Changes in the money supply The following graph represents the money market in a hypothetical economy. As in the Unit
INTEREST RATE (Percent) 6.0 5.5 5.0 4.5 4.0 3.5 3.0 2.5 20 0 Money Demand 0.1 0.2 Money Supply 0.3 0.4 0.5 MONEY (Trillions of dollars) 0.6 0.7 0.8 New MS Curve New Equilibrium (?)
Suppose the Fed announces that it is lowering its target interest rate by 75 basis points, or 0.75 percentage point. To do this, the Fed will use open- market operations to the money by the public. Use the green line (triangle symbol) on the previous graph to illustrate the effects of this policy by placing the new money supply curve (MS) in the correct location. Place the black point (plus symbol) at the new equilibrium interest rate and quantity of money. Suppose the following graph shows the aggregate demand curve for this economy. The Fed's policy of targeting a lower interest rate will the cost of borrowing, causing residential and business investment spending to at each price level. and the quantity of output demanded to Shift the curve on the graph to show the general impact of the Fed's new interest rate target on aggregate demand. ?
