Answer - Option C
The unemployment rate begins to fall or remains steady
In this case the overnight target will not be set above the earlier target but below it because the unemployment rate falling will need expansion to correct it. Hence this is not the justification for overnight rate to increase. The fear of inflation due to world expansion may be the reason , the devaluation of currency and inflation rate may be the correct reasons but not option C.

Consider an economy in which the unemployment rate is at the natural level and the inflation rate is 10%. Suppose that the domestic central bank wants to reduce inflation to 5%. Starting from year t the central bank reduces the money supply in such a way that unemployment remains above the natural level by one percent each year. After 5 years the inflation reaches the new target of 5%. Compute the sacrifice ratio of this policy. What is the slope...

If the Bank of Canada were to miscalculate the NAIRU (non-accelerating inflation rate of unemployment) as being 10% when in fact it was 12%, it might cause O A. consumers to spend more than they intended, because the Bank of Canada misled them about the unemployment rate. O B. a reduction in the natural rate of unemployment, because it would be allowing inflation to occur. O c. a one-time reduction in unemployment, because of a one-time increase in the money...
So let's say that this European Central Bank, the European Central Bank expects the natural unemployment rate to be 6 percent, and the actual unemployment rate is 5.5 percent. A.) Use the Phillips curve illustration to determine what happens to inflation
So let's say that this European Central Bank, the European Central Bank expects the natural unemployment rate to be 6 percent, and the actual unemployment rate is 5.5 percent.A.) Use the Phillips curve illustration to determine what happens to inflation and unemployment over a long period of time.B.) Assuming the expectation is the actual natural unemployment rate (5.5%), then if the government decides to increase government spending, please briefly explain and use the Phillips curve to illustrate.

In Dec, 2018 the fed funds rate is 2.25-2.5% which is the rate that banks charge each other to borrow reserves overnight. The fed controls the supply of bank reserves by buying or selling Treasury Securities. (Buying treasuries raises the supply of bank reserves and therefore lowers the fed funds rate) It is also gradually undoing quantitative easing(QE) which means shrinking its balance sheet which has assets of 4Trillion! The fed had expanded its balance sheet by creating money to...
