Question 1

Suppose the central bank increases the money supply in an economy. According to the Quantity Theory of Money, what is the likely long-term effect on the price level if real output remains constant? Use the equation $$ M 	imes V = P 	imes Y  to $$support your answer.

Accepted Answer

The price level will increase proportionally to the increase in money supply, since $$ Y  is $$constant and $$ V  is $$stable.

Question 2

A country is experiencing high unemployment and low inflation. Which macroeconomic policy would be most appropriate to address this situation?

Accepted Answer

$$ k = 5 $$

Question 4

Which of the following best describes the concept of 'structural unemployment'?

Accepted Answer

Question 8

Question 13

A country has the following data: Consumption = $$500$$, Investment = $$200$$, Government Spending = $$150$$, Net Exports = $$-50. $$What is the GDP using the expenditure approach? Use the formula $$ GDP = C + I + G + (X - M) .$$

Accepted Answer

Question 14

Which of the following is an example of frictional unemployment?

Accepted Answer

A recent college graduate is searching for their first job.

Question 15

If the reserve requirement is 10%, what is the maximum potential increase in the money supply from a new deposit of $$1,000? Use the money multiplier formula $$ 	ext{Multiplier} = \frac{1}{	ext{Reserve Ratio}} $.

Accepted Answer

$$ 5,000 $$

Accepted Answer

Raising the central bank’s policy interest rate.

Question 17

If the labor force is 200 million and the number of unemployed is 10 million, what is the unemployment rate? Use the formula $$ 	ext{Unemployment Rate} = \frac{	ext{Unemployed}}{	ext{Labor Force}} 	imes 100 .$$

Accepted Answer

$$ 5\% $$

Question 18
