Suppose a country wants to maintain its exchange rate at the current level, but it is worried that market forces will push it down (that is, make the currency less valuable relative to other countries’ currencies).

In an attempt to keep the exchange rate from falling, the country’s central bank adopts a tight money policy. 8. Quick review: if the central bank adopts a tight money policy, do interest...

At the interest rate of 5%, the people of the country of Rupertopia are willing to lend $10,000 to local business, while local businesses are willing to borrow $20,000. When the interest rate rises to 10%, the quantity of loans supplied increases to $20,000, while the quantity of loans demanded drops to $10,000. Because the people of Rupertopia are suspicious of outsiders, all financial transactions happen between locals. Assume both supply and demand curves for loanable funds are linear. Suppose...
