Chapter 17 & 20: Case Study: Money Growth and Inflation and Aggregate Demand and Aggregate Supply: (10 Points)

In the third assignment for the Macroeconomics course, the students are required to discuss how changes in the quantity of money affect the economy and the aggregate demand and the aggregate supply explains the economic fluctuations.

Learning Outcomes:

• Describe how to evaluate macroeconomic conditions such as unemployment, inflation, and growth. [CLO 1.2]
• Recognize the fundamental determinant’s of a nation’s long-run economic growth. [CLO 1.3]
  • Suppose a country’s inflation rate increases sharply. What happens to the inflation tax on the holders of the money?

(2.5 points)
  • It is sometimes suggested that the Federal Reserve should try to achieve zero inflation. If we assume that velocity is constant, does this zero-inflation goal require that the rate of money growth equal zero? If yes, explain why?
