RD : demand curve for central bank reseeres
RS: supply of reserves
iff ; federal funds rate, determined at the intersection of RD & RS
id : discount rate
ir: interest rate on reserves
NBR: non borrowed reserves
Now when open market sale occurs, then money is withdrawn from the economy , so RS curve shifts inwards,eqm moves from A to B
Federal funds rate rises, as a result of contractionary monetary policy.
Level of NBR falls .
using market for reserves graph and explain what happens to the quality of reserves and the effective equilibrium fed funds rate in the following scenario. assume the original equilibrium is above th...
What happens after the Fed buys securities on the open market (assume the demand for reserves is downward sloping)? A. Supply of reserves shifts leftward and federal funds rate increases B. Supply of reserves shifts rightward and federal funds rate declines C. Supply of reserves shifts leftward and federal funds rate declines D. Supply of reserves shifts rightward and federal funds rate increases
What happens to the fed funds rate when the Fed increases the reserve requirements? Draw the graph and explain what happens to the federal funds rate.
Demand for Excess Reserves 6.5% 6.0% 5.5% 5.0% 4.5% 4.0% Federal Funds Rate 3.5% 3.0% 2.5% 2.0% 1.5% 1.0% 0.5% 0.0% o 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 1000 1100 1200 1300 $Billion The graph above shows the commercial banks' demand function for federal funds. The guy who was constructing this graph forgot to incorporate the effects of discount rate and interest on reserves into the graph. The discount rate is 4.50 percent and the interest on...
, This Question: 1 pt The graph shows the demand curve for reserves in the market for bank reserves The federal funds target rate is 4 percent Draw the supply of reserves curve determined by the Fed to achieve the federal funds target rate Label it Draw a point at the equilibrium in the market for bank reserves If the Fed raises the Federal funds rate target they undertake an open market O A. purchase, increase O B. sale increase...
6) Draw a supply and demand for reserves graph where there is no discount lending and no interest paid on reserves. Show and explain how the Fed could use open market operations to lower the equilibrium federal funds rate.
Federal funds rate (percent per year) The graph shows the demand curve for bank reserves, RD. The current quantity of reserves supplied is $20 billion. 7 Draw a point on the curve that shows the federal funds rate when the quantity of reserves supplied is $20 billion. Label it 1 6- 5- t 4 percent a year The Fed wants to set the federal funds rate Draw a supply of reserves curve that achieves the target. Label it Draw a...
Using a graph representing the market for loanable funds, show and explain what happens to interest rates and investment if a government goes from a deficit to a surplus.
Assume that the equilibrium real fed funds rate is 2% and that an appropriate target for inflation would also be 2%. The country's potential GDP growth rate is known as 3%. Suppose that the current inflation rate is 3% and actual growth rate is 4%. (a) Then, what would be the central bank's target interest rate implied by Taylor Rule? (b) Suppose current monetary policy interest rate (fed funds rate) is 8%. Evaluate the current monetary policy stance using the...
Explain the effect on the demand for reserves or the supply of reserves of the following Fed policy​ action: an open market sale of government securities a. this would decrease the demand for reserves b. this would increase the supply for reserves c. this would decrease the supply for reserves d. this would lower the interest rate at which the supply for reserves becomes horizontal
4. Assume that the equilibrium in the loanable funds market is at interest rate of 1.25% and quantity of funds at $20 billion. Suppose the current government deficit is zero so government is not borrowing any money. a) Suppose now government increases spending by $2 billion and finances it entirely by borrowing. This deficit increases equilibrium interest rate to 2% and equilibrium quantity of funds to $21.5. Show the changes on the graph. b) What happens to private investment (I)...
