1. In an economy where planned aggregate spending is given by PAE = 3,000 + .75Y -

10,000 r, the central bank is currently setting the interest rate at 0.05 (5 percent). If potential output equals 10,800, the central bank must ____ the interest rate to close the _________ gap.

a. lower; recessionary b. lower; expansionary c. not change; output d. raise; recessionary e. raise; expansionary

2. In a certain economy the components of planned aggregate expenditure are given by:

C = 60 + .6 (Y- T) - 1000 r I = 200 - 1000 r G = 200 NX =50

If net taxes equal 100 and the Federal Reserve sets the interest rate equal to 0.04 (4 percent), short-run equilibrium output equals:

a. 825 b. 875 c. 925 d. 975 e. 1,025

3. The Federal Reserve discount rate is the rate of interest charged on loans from _____ to

_____.

5. Jan's Dry Cleaning holds $10,000 on a typical day, although only $2,000 is essential for

carrying out business. Making a midday deposit is estimated to reduce cash holdings to $8,000 and cost an extra $80 per year in lost production. If, in addition, an armored car service is engaged to pick up cash more frequently for a fee of $120 per year, cash holdings will be further reduced to $6,000 per day. Employing a computerized cash management service for an annual fee of $180 would reduce cash holdings further to $4,000. If any reduction in cash holdings will be invested in government bonds earning 5%, then how much money should Jan's hold?

a. $10,000 b. $8,000

c. $6,000 d. $4,000 e. $1,500

6.

Reference: Figure 1405
