Which of the following will occur as a result of this reduction in consumer confidence?A) The LM curve will shift up.B) The LM curve will shift down.C) The IS curve will shift rightward.D) The IS curve will shift leftward.E) The IS curve will shift rightward, and the LM curve will shift up.Answer: DDiff: 25) Suppose policy makers decide to reduce taxes. This fiscal policy action will cause which of the following to occur?A) The LM curve shifts and the economy moves along the IS curve.B) The IS curve shifts and the economy moves along the LM curve.C) Both the IS and LM curves shift.D) Neither the IS nor the LM curve shifts.E) Output will change causing a change in money demand and a shift of the LM curve. Answer: BDiff: 26) Suppose fiscal policy makers implement a policy to reduce the size of a budget deficit. Based on the IS-LM model, we know with certainty that the following will occur as a result of this fiscal policy action.A) Investment spending will decrease.B) Investment spending will increase.C) There will be no change in investment spending.D) Investment spending may increase, decrease, or not change.E) none of the aboveAnswer: DDiff: 37) For this question, assume that investment spending depends only on the interest rate and no longer depends on output. Given this information, a reduction in government spendingA) will cause investment to decrease.B) will cause investment to increase.C) may cause investment to increase or to decrease.D) will have no effect on output.E) will cause a reduction in output and have no effect on the interest rate.Answer: BDiff: 38) Suppose investment spending is not very sensitive to the interest rate. Given this information, we know thatA) the IS curve should be relatively flat.B) the IS curve should be relatively steep.C) the LM curve should be relatively flat.D) the LM curve should be relatively steep.E) neither the IS nor the LM curve will be affected.Answer: BDiff: 29) Explain the determinants of investment. Include in your answer an explanation of how a change in each determinant affects investment.Answer: Investment depends on the level of sales/output and on the interest rate. As output changes, the demand for goods will change and firms will change investment so that their capacity changes with the level of economic activity (and demand). I also depends on the interest rate. As the interest rate rises, the cost of borrowing rises. Firms will cut back on investment as borrowing costs rise.Diff: 210) What is the IS relation? Explain why IS curve is downward sloping.Answer: The IS relation shows the combinations of the interest rate and the level of output that are consistent with equilibrium in the goods market. An increase in the interest rate leads to a decline in output. Consequently, the IS curve is downward sloping.Diff: 211) Graphically derive the IS curve from the goods market equilibrium.Answer: Suppose the initial equilibrium in the goods market is at point A with interest rate i. Suppose now that the interest rate increases from its initial value i to a higher value i'. The increase in the interest rate decreases investment. The decrease in investment leads to a decrease in output. Now the new equilibrium point is at A', with a higher value of i and lower value of Y. After we plot the combinations of i and Y when the goods market is in equilibrium, we can connect these two points (A and A') to get a downward sloping IS curve.Diff: 25.2 Financial Markets and the LM Relation1) For each interest rate, the LM curve illustrates the level of output whereA) the goods market is in equilibrium.B) inventory investment equals zero.C) money supply equals money demand.D) all of the aboveE) none of the aboveAnswer: CDiff: 22) The LM curve shifts down (or, equivalently, to the right) when which of the following occurs?A) an increase in taxesB) an increase in outputC) an open market sale of bonds by the central bankD) an increase in consumer confidenceE) none of the aboveAnswer: EDiff: 23) Which of the following statements is consistent with a given (i.e., fixed) LM curve?A) A reduction in the interest rate causes investment spending to increase.B) A reduction in the interest rate causes money demand to decrease.C) A reduction in the interest rate causes an increase in the money supply.D) An increase in output causes an increase in demand for goods.E) An increase in output causes an increase in money demand.Answer: EDiff: 24) In late 2007 and early 2008, the U.S. Federal Reserve pursued expansionary monetary policy. Which of the following will occur as a result of this monetary policy action?A) The LM curve shifts down.B) The LM curve shifts up.C) The IS curve shifts rightward as the interest rate falls.D) The IS curve shifts leftward as the interest rate increases.E) none of the aboveAnswer: ADiff: 25) Suppose the demand for money is not very sensitive to the interest rate. Given this information, we know thatA) the IS curve should be relatively flat.B) the IS curve should be relatively steep.C) the LM curve should be relatively flat.D) the LM curve should be relatively steep.E) neither the IS nor the LM curve will be affected.Answer: DDiff: 36) Which of the following is the definition for the real supply of money?A) The stock of money measured in terms of goods, not dollars.B) The stock of high powered money only.C) The real value of currency in circulation only.D) The actual quantity of money, rather than the officially reported quantity.E) The ratio of the real GDP to the nominal money supply.Answer: ADiff: 17) First, define the LM curve. Second, explain why it has its particular shape.Answer: The LM curve illustrates the combinations of the interest rate and level of output that maintain financial market equilibrium. The curve is upward sloping because as income increases, money demand will rise. This increase in money demand will cause an excess demand for money and an excess supply of bonds. Bond prices will fall and the interest rate will increase until equilibrium is restored.Diff: 25.3 Putting the IS and the LM Relations Together1) Suppose the economy is currently operating on both the LM curve and the IS curve. Which of the following is true for this economy?A) Production equals demand.B) The quantity supplied of bonds equals the quantity demanded of bonds.C) The money supply equals money demand.D) Financial markets are in equilibrium.E) all of the aboveAnswer: EDiff: 12) Suppose the economy is operating on the LM curve but not on the IS curve. Given this information, we know thatA) the goods market is in equilibrium and the money market is not in equilibrium.B) the money market and bond markets are in equilibrium and the goods market is not in equilibrium.C) the money market and goods market are in equilibrium and the bond market is not in equilibrium.D) the money, bond and goods markets are all in equilibrium.E) neither the money, bond, nor goods markets are in equilibrium.Answer: BDiff: 23) Suppose the current level of output and the interest rate are such that the economy is operating on neither the IS nor LM curve.

following occurs?A) a reduction in the money supplyB) a reduction in government spendingC) an increase in the interest rateD) all of the aboveE) none of the aboveAnswer: BDiff: 232) Which of the following occurs as the economy moves rightward along a given IS curve?A) A reduction in the interest rate causes investment spending to decrease.B) A reduction in the interest rate causes money demand to increase.C) A reduction in the interest rate causes a reduction in the money supply.D) An increase in government spending causes a reduction in demand for goods.E) A reduction in taxes causes a reduction in demand for goods.Answer: ADiff: 233) When the central bank pursues contractionary monetary policy, we that this policy will result in an increase in the interest rate, a reduction in investment, a reduction in demand, and a lower level of equilibrium output. Explain what happens to the position of the IS curve as the central bank pursues contractionary monetary policy.Answer: Changes in the interest rate do cause changes in investment, demand, and output. However, they do not cause shifts of the IS curve. Changes in the interest rate cause movements along the IS curve.Diff: 234) A fiscal expansion (e.g. a tax cut) will result in an increase in income, an increase in money demand, and an increase in the equilibrium interest rate in financial markets. Explain what happens to the position of the LM curve as policy makers pursue expansionary fiscal policy. Answer: The fiscal expansion will cause an increase in output. However, changes in Y only cause movements along the LM curve. The effects of changes in Y on the interest rate are embedded in the shape of the LM curve.Diff: 2IS curve.Answer: A Fed sale of bonds will cause a reduction in H and a reduction in the money supply. This will cause an excess demand for money and the interest rate must increase to restore money market equilibrium. The LM curve will shift up as a result of this to reflect the now higher interest rate. The IS curve does not shift as a result of this. We would simply observe a movement along the IS curve.Diff: 236) Explain in detail what effect a reduction in government spending will have on: (1) the LM curve; and (2) the IS curve.Answer: A reduction in taxes will cause an increase in disposable income and an increase in consumption. The rise in C will cause an increase in demand and the equilibrium level of output in the goods market will be higher. This is reflected in a rightward shift in the IS curve. Goods market events such as this will not cause a shift in the LM curve (only a movement along it). Diff: 237) Based on your understanding of the IS-LM model, graphically illustrate and explain what effect a reduction in consumer confidence will have on output, the interest rate, and investment. Answer: A reduction in consumer confidence will cause a reduction in consumption and, therefore, a reduction in demand and a leftward shift in the IS curve. As Y decreases, money demand will decrease causing the interest rate to fall. The effects on I are ambiguous. The lower Y will cause I to fall while the lower interest rate will cause I to increase.Diff: 238) Based on your understanding of the IS-LM model, graphically illustrate and explain what effect a monetary expansion will have on output, the interest rate, and investment.Answer: An increase in M will cause the LM curve to shift down and the interest rate to fall. As the interest rate falls, firms will increase investment causing an increase in demand and subsequent increase in output. So, the interest rate will fall and Y will rise. I will be higher due to the rise in Y and drop in the interest rate.Diff: 239) Increases in the budget deficit are believed to cause reductions in investment. Based on your understanding of the IS-LM model, will a fiscal policy action that causes a reduction in the budget deficit cause an increase in investment? Explain.Answer: A policy that causes a reduction in the budget deficit will have an ambiguous effect on investment. Output will fall which will tend to depress I. However, the interest rate will also fall which will tend to increase I. I could increase, decrease, or remain unchanged.Diff: 2the IS curve.Answer: A Fed purchase of bonds will cause an increase in H and an increase in the money supply. This will cause an excess supply of money and the interest rate must decline to restore money market equilibrium. The LM curve will shift down as a result of this to reflect the now lower interest rate. The IS curve does not shift as a result of this. We would simply observe a movement along the IS curve.Diff: 241) Explain in detail what effect an increase in government spending will have on: (1) the LM curve; and (2) the IS curve.Answer: An increase in government spending will cause an increase in demand and the equilibrium level of output in the goods market will be higher. This is reflected in a rightward shift in the IS curve. Goods market events such as this will not cause a shift in the LM curve (only a movement along it).Diff: 25.4 Using a Policy Mix1) Suppose there is a simultaneous fiscal expansion and monetary expansion. We know with certainty thatA) output will increase.B) output will decrease.C) the interest rate will increase.D) the interest rate will decrease.E) both output and the interest rate will increase.Answer: ADiff: 22) Suppose there is a simultaneous fiscal expansion and monetary contraction. We know with certainty thatA) output will increase.B) output will decrease.C) the interest rate will increase.D) the interest rate will decrease.E) both output and the interest rate will increase.Answer: CDiff: 23) For this question, assume that investment spending depends only on output and no longer depends on the interest rate. Given this information, an increase in government spendingA) will cause investment to decrease.B) will cause investment to increase.C) may cause investment to increase or to decrease.D) will have no effect on output.E) will cause an increase in output and have no effect on the interest rate.Answer: BDiff: 34) A reasonable dynamic assumption for the IS-LM model is thatA) the economy is always on both the IS and LM curves.B) the economy is always on the IS curve, but moves only slowly to the LM curve.C) the economy is always on the LM curve, but moves only slowly to the IS curve.D) the money market is quick to adjust, but the bond market adjusts more slowly.E) adjustment to the new IS-LM equilibrium is instantaneous after an LM shift, but not after an IS shift.Answer: CDiff: 25) Under the reasonable dynamic assumptions discussed in the text, a monetary contraction should result inA) an immediate rise in the interest rate, and no further interest rate changes.B) an immediate rise in the interest rate, and then a fall in the interest rate over time.C) an immediate rise in the interest rate, and then a further rise over time.D) a very gradual but steady rise in the interest rate to its new equilibrium level.E) no change in the interest rate initially, and then a sudden rise to its new equilibrium value. Answer: BDiff: 26) For this question, assume that investment spending depends only on the interest rate and no longer depends on output. Given this information, a reduction in the money supplyA) will cause investment to decrease.B) will cause investment to increase.C) may cause investment to increase or to decrease.D) will have no effect on output.E) will cause a reduction in output and have no effect on the interest rate.Answer: ADiff: 37) Suppose there is a Fed purchase of bonds and simultaneous tax cut. We know with certainty that this combination of policies must causeA) an increase in the interest rate (i).B) a reduction in i.C) an increase in output (Y).D) a reduction in Y.Answer: CDiff: 28) Suppose there is a simultaneous Fed sale of bonds and increase in consumer confidence. We know with certainty that these two simultaneous events will causeA) an increase in the interest rate (i).B) a reduction in i.C) an increase in output (Y).D) a reduction in Y.Answer: ADiff: 29) Suppose there is a simultaneous central bank purchase of bonds and increase in taxes. We know with certainty that this combination of policies must causeA) an increase in the interest rate (i).B) a reduction in i.C) an increase in output (Y).D) a reduction in Y.Answer: BDiff: 210) Suppose there is a simultaneous central bank sale of bonds and tax increase. We know with certainty that this combination of policies must causeA) an increase in the interest rate (i).B) a reduction in i.C) an increase in output (Y).D) a reduction in Y.Answer: DDiff: 211) First, briefly explain what is meant by the policy mix. Second, explain what effect different policy mixes might have on the level of output, investment, and the interest rate.Answer: The policy mix refers to the possible combinations of monetary (exp. or contr.) and fiscal (exp. or contr.) that can be simultaneously implemented. There are a number of different answers that could be given to the latter part of the question. The effects on output, the interest rate, and investment will depend on the type of mix.Diff: 212) Use the IS-LM model to answer this question. Suppose there is a simultaneous increase in government spending and reduction in the money supply. Explain what effect this particular policy mix will have on output and the interest rate. Based on your analysis, do we know with certainty what effect this policy mix will have on investment? Explain.Answer: In this case, the LM curve shifts up and the IS curve shifts to the right. The interest rate will clearly be higher. The effects on output depend on the relative magnitude of the two policies. The effects on I are also ambiguous. If output falls, I will be lower. However, it is possible that output will rise here which creates the ambiguity.Diff: 213) Use the IS-LM model to answer this question. Suppose there is a simultaneous increase in taxes and reduction in the money supply. Explain what effect this particular policy mix will have on output and the interest rate. Based on your analysis, do we know with certainty what effect this policy mix will have on investment? Explain.Answer: In this case, the LM curve shifts up and the IS curve shifts to the left. In this case, output will clearly fall. What happens to the interest rate depends on the relative magnitude of the two policies. The effects on I are again ambiguous.Diff: 214) Use the IS-LM model to answer this question. Suppose there is a simultaneous increase in government spending and increase in the money supply. Explain what effect this particular policy mix will have on output and the interest rate. Based on your analysis, do we know with certainty what effect this policy mix will have on investment? Explain.Answer: In this case, the LM curve shifts down and the IS curve shifts to the right. The output will clearly be higher. The effects on interest rate depend on the relative magnitude of the two policies. The effects on I are also ambiguous. If interest rate falls, I will be higher. However, it is possible that interest rate will rise here which creates the ambiguity.Diff: 25.5 How does the IS-LM Model Fit the Facts?1) Empirically it takes nearly ________ years for monetary policy to have its full effect on output.A) 2B) 1C) 3D) 4Answer: ADiff: 1。

Covered interest arbitrage moves the market __________ equilibrium because __________.A. toward; investors are now more willing to invest in risky securitiesB. toward; purchasing a currency on the spot market and selling in the forward market narrows the differential between the twoC. away from; purchasing a currency on the spot market and selling in the forward market increases the differential between the twoD. away from; demand for the stronger currency forces up the interest rates on the weaker security20. If the forward exchange rate is an unbiased predictor of the expected future spot rate, which of the following is NOT true?A. The future spot rate will actually be equal to what the forward rate predictsB. The forward premium or discount reflects the expected change in the spot exchange rate.C. Speculative activity ensures that the forward rate does not diverge too far from the market’s consensus expectation.D. All of the above are true.II. Problems (40 credits)1.The Argentine peso was fixed through a currency board at Ps1.00/$ throughout the 1990s. In January 2002 the Argentine peso was floated. On January 29, 2003, it was trading at Ps3.20/$. During that one year period Argentina’s inflation rate was 20% on an annualized basis. Inflation in the United States during that same period was2.2% annualized. (10 credits)a. What should have been the exchange rate in January 2003 if purchasing power parity held?b. By what percentage was the Argentine peso undervalued on an annualized basis?2. Assume that the interest rate paid by an American borrower on a ten-year foreign bond is 10% if the bond is sold in Denmark and 7% if the bond is sold in the Netherland. Will the expected inflation rate in the Netherlands likely be higher than the expected inflation rate in Denmark? Will the Danish kroner be expected to increase in value against the Dutch guilder? Explain your answer. (5 credits)3. Suppose S = $1.25/₤ and the 1-year forward rate is F = $1.20/₤.

5.2.1 Definition of Exchange Rate
Exchange Rate
The exchange rate is the ratio of the currency of one country to the currency of another country or the price of one currency in another currency.
Given that different currencies in the world have different names and values, it is necessary for countries to set a rate, at which they can exchange their currencies. This rate is called the exchange rate.
We begin by identifying the major factors that can alter demand:

• Suppose you invest $1000 for one year at 5% per year. What is the future value in one year? • Interest = 1000(.05) = 50 • Value in one year = principal + interest = 1000 + 50 = 1050 • Future Value (FV) = 1000(1 + .05) = 1050 • Suppose you leave the money in for another year. How much will you have two years from now? • FV = 1000(1.05)(1.05) = 1000(1.05)2 = 1102.50
• What is the present value of $500 to be received in 5 years? 10 years? The discount rate is 10% • 5 years: N = 5; I/Y = 10; FV = 500 CPT PV = -310.46 • 10 years: N = 10; I/Y = 10; FV = 500 CPT PV = -192.77

Time Value of Money
It is very likely that the willingness to postpone purchases into the future stems from the reward, namely the interest rate.
The lender will charge the borrower a risk premium so as to
ensure that he will be compensated for a possible loss of
money.
Delayed consumption
People prefer to buy goods at a later time. As a result, there will often be a positive interest rate

Interest Rate
It is often defined as the proportion of an amount loaned, which a lender charges an interest to the borrower, normally expressed as an annual percentage. It is the rate a bank or other lender charges to borrow its money or the rate a bank pays its savers for keeping money in an account. The annual interest rate is the rate over a period of one year. Other interest rates apply over different periods, such as a month or a day, but they are usually annualized.

Compounding: Future Values

deposit in the bank for two years at 5 percent interest per year. At the end of the first year you would receive $100×(1+0.05)=$105

1. The Time Value of Money
◆The willingness to postpone purchases into the future is a function of the reward—that is, the interest rate. ◆The higher the interest rate, the greater the reward and, hence, the greater the willingness to postpone purchases into the future and lend in the present.
1). Compounding: Future Values
◆What is the future value of one dollar deposited in an interestbearing account today? To answer this question, let’s start with a definition: future value is the value on some future date of an investment made today.
The Time Value of Money
◆ Lending in the present enables spending in the future the sum of what is lent plus the interest earned.
◆Borrowing in the present enables spending in the present, but

2). Present Value
◆Present value is the value in the present of a payment that is promised to be made in the future. ◆Put another way, present value is the amount that must be invested today in order to realize a specific amount on a given future date.
requires paying back in the future what is borrowed plus interest.
◆Since the interest rate is the return on lending and the cost of borrowing, it plays a pivotal role in spending, saving, borrowing, and lending decisions made in the present and bearing on the future.
i.e. Today you invest $100 in a savings account that guarantees 5 percent interest per year. After one year, you’ll have $105 (the investment at its present value of $100 plus $5 in interest). So the future value of $100 one year from now at an interest rate of 5 percent is $105.
◆Money represents purchasing power; a person who has money
can purchase goods or services now.
◆If someone does not have money now and wants to make
purchases, he/she can rent purchasing power by borrowing.

Present Value
◆To understand the calculation of present value, go back to future value. Remember that at a 5 percent interest rate, the future value one year from now of a $100 investment today is $105. It follows that at this same 5 percent interest rate, the present value of $105 one year from now is $100. All we did was invert the future value calculation. ◆In general terms, reversing the calculation in equation (1), we obtain PV= FV / (1+i ) (3)
◆Then you leave this $105 deposit in the bank and at the end of
the second year you would receive $105×(1+0.05)=$110.25
