Answer:

1) decreases

2) decreases

3) increase

4)  decrease

5) decreases

Explanation:

1. When the Fed sells bonds in open-market operations, it decreases the money supply.

If the Fed sells bonds, it decreases the money supply by removing cash from the economy in exchange for bonds.

2. If the Fed raises the reserve requirement, the money supply decreases.

By increasing the reserve requirement, the Federal Reserve is essentially taking money out of the money supply and increasing the cost of credit.

3. When the Fed decreases the interest rate it pays on reserves, the money supply will increase.

When the Fed decreases the interest rate paid on reserves, it: decreases the reserve-deposit ratio (rr) thereby increasing the money supply.

4) When the FOMC increases its target for the federal funds rate, the money supply will decrease.

The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) is the monetary policy-making body of the Federal Reserve System. While the FOMC can't mandate a particular federal funds rate, they can adjust the money supply so that interest rates will move toward the target rate. Therefore, by increasing the amount of money in the system it can cause interest rates to fall; by decreasing the money supply it can make interest rates rise.

5) When Citibank repays a loan it had previously taken from the Fed, it decreases the money supply.

The money supply reduces gradually by the amount of the principal when bank loans are repaid. So if Citibank repays a loan it had previously taken from the Fed, it will decrease the money supply.

In each of the following scenarios, explain and categorize the cost of inflation.a) Because inflation has risen, the J.Crew clot
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Consider the following explanation

Explanation:

a) J. Crew is issuing its catalogs monthly in response to inflation. This will incur cost and it is known as 'Menu Cost'.

b) Grandpa has bought annuity which has promised $10,000 a year for the rest of his life. However, higher than expected inflation means grandpa has lesser purchasing power. This is loss of purchasing power and also 'redistribution cost'. In higher inflation borrower tends to get benefit. Here insurance company is at the gain.

c) Maria is witnessing loss of purchasing power because of hyper inflation. In such scenario, cost keeps rising and product's price could be higher a few hours later. This was witnessed in Germany as well as in Zimbabwe. People run to the stores as soon as they get cash or salary. It is known as 'shoe leather cost'. People make frequent trips to banks or stores but do not keep cash in fear of losing value.

d) Gita actually earned only 5% on her portfolio but as her income is in taxable bracket so she has to pay 20% tax. Her income from portfolio not even compensated inflation. This is a redistribution cost and also known as fiscal drag. More people fall into bracket because higher nominal income but real income is neglected which makes people worse off.

e) Father thinks that son is earning far more than him but inflation over the period of time erodes purchasing power and it could be possible that current income might be lower, same or higher comparing to inflation data. However, if it is lower then it is obviously loss of purchasing power.
