Let demand be given by Q = 150 - P + 2Y. This is the same for all problems of this type. Let r = 10%. Let Y = 50 across both periods. Let MC = 0. Let reserves = 200. Consider the basic two-period model. Assume that r increases from 10% to 20%. What happens to price and quantity in the present?

Price and quantity both decrease |
Answer: both price and quantity decrease.
Rise in rate of interest increases opportunity cost of present consumption. Thus current consumption declines and so the price.
