4. Consider a simple economy with only one form of money, which is currency. In this economy, the demand for money is gi
Calculate (a) the equilibrium interest rate if the supply of
currency is fixed at $2000 and (b) the change in the interest rate
that would occur if the central bank increased the supply of
currency by 10% (calculate to two decimal places).
I already calculate part A. Need help with Part B.
Thanks!
4. Consider a simple economy with only one form of money, which is currency. In this economy, the demand for money is given by the equation: $100 Md = r
a. Md = $2000- $2000 = $100/r- r=5% b. Increase in Ms = 10% *2000 = 200'+ New Ms = $2000+$200 = $22004 New Md = $2200 $2200 = $100/r- r=4.55% Change in r = New eam r - Initial eam r = 4.55% - 5% = -0.45%
