  6. “When the party gets too good, it’s the job of the Fed to take away the punch bowl.” I promise to control inflation… The Fed’s policy is “If you see inflation, its too late. Whip it before it gets out of the box.” During a recession, the Fed is happy to “spike the punch.”

  19. GOALS OF MONETARY POLICY …to assist the economy in achieving a full employment, non-inflationary level of output

  20. Three Tools Of Monetary Policy 1. Open Market Operations - “nuts and bolts”of Monetary Policy[main tool] - $60-$70 billion every day

  21. 2. Reserve Requirement - most powerful (seldom used) - affects money creation by changing ER andthe multiplier - an increase of½ of 1%would increase bank reserves by over $5 billion - RR was 20% from 1937-1958 Sledgehammer of Monetary Policy RR - Atomic Bomb of Monetary Policy

  22. Atomic Bomb of Monetary Policy Reserve Requirement Example Suppose the banking system has $500 billion in DD. The RR is 12%& TR are $60 billion, which is 12%of the$500 billionDD. So, there are no ER. Now, the Fed lowers the RR to 10%. Now banks are required to keep only $50 billionin RR. So, $10 billion more ER is available to loan out. $10 billion X 10 = $100 billion in new DD. So, 20% increase MS [DD] from $500 to $600 billion.

  23. Reserve Requirement at 10% - Easy Money [In 1980, the RRwas set at12%; stayed there until 1992; went to10%] Monetary Expansion [10% RR] [1/.10=10] “Easy Money” $10,000 [$9,000+$1,000] $729 AS AD2 AD1 PL $810 YRY* $900 [$900x10] $1,000 $1,000 Initial deposit “Easy Money” “Easy Money” – increase the money supply

  24. RR at 20% - Tight Money Monetary Expansion (20% RR) [1/.20=MD of 5] “Tight Money” $5,000 [$4,000+$1,000] AD1 AS $512 AD2 $640 PL $800 Y* YI $1,000 Initial deposit “Tight Money” - decrease the money suply

  25. 3. Discount Rate-emergency Fed loans to banks- symbolic (raises Prime Rate)- Discount Rate was 1% from1934-46 and the prime rate was 1.5% FL borrowed $99 million In 1991 Hurricane EarthQuake The Fed tends to change the D.R. in lockstep with the fed funds target rate.

  26. Fed Funds Rate 1996-2006 5.25% June, 2006

  27. Relative Importance of Monetary Policy Relative Importance of Monetary Policy A. WWII-1979–Fed targeted the interest ratenot the growth of MS. B. 1979-1982 – Fed targeted the growth of the MS not the in. rate. C. 1982-Present-Fed targets the interest rate, not the MS. 1. Discount Rate – not a primary tool of monetary policy. It does have an “announcement effect.” 2. Reserve Requirement (10%)-has changed one time in 2 decades (12% to 10% in 1992). It would affect bank profits so is seldom used. 3. Open-market operations – evolved as the most effective tool of monetary policy because of flexibility. Securities can be bought or sold in large amounts & their impact on reserves is very prompt. Effectiveness of Monetary Policy Strengths of Monetary Policy 1. Speed and flexibility –can quickly be altered (compared to fiscal policy). This can occur on a daily basis and influence interest rates and the MS. 2. Isolation from political pressures – because of the 14 year terms. They can enact unpopular policies which might be best for our economy’s health.

Dm is more inelastic [I.R. moresensitive] DI is more elastic [or moreresponsive] AS AD2 Keynesian viewis thatDIis rathersteepso monetary policy is not that strong. Fiscal policy is“top banana.” AD1 Also, theKeynesians don’t thinkthe lower interest rateis as important as“profit expectations.”

  29. Strengths of Monetary Policy • Speed and flexibility • Isolation from political pressure • Successes in the 1980s & 1990s Shortcomings and problems Monetary Policy better I’d like one of those 1% mortgages, but I don’t have a job. Cyclical asymmetry [better atfighting inflationthanfighting depressions] Fiscal Policy better

  30. Shortcomings and Problems of Monetary Policy But – I will eat spiked brownies. Cyclical Asymmetry (lack of balance) – “Tight money during inflations is more effective than easy money policy during a depressions.” a. An easy money policy during depression does not guarantee that people will take out loans if they don’t have jobs. [“You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink.”] b. The cyclical asymmetry has not created a major difficulty for monetary policy except during times of depression. c. Velocity of money may increaseduring inflationwhen the fed is trying to decrease the MS & decrease during recession when the Fed is trying to increase MS. d. The lower interest rates during recession & depreciationof the dollar may cause foreign investors to pull their money out of the U.S. and reduce the MS. e. Banks may hold their ER or the public may hold too much currency. f. Dm curve may be more flatso that interest rate will not drop as much, or the DI curve may be more vertical so that investment will not increase asmuch.

  33. TOOLS OF MONETARY POLICY Discount Rate The Reserve Ratio Open Market Operations “Easy Money” Fed • Easy Money Policy • Lower Discount Rate • Lower Reserve Ratio • Buy Bonds

  34. TOOLS OF MONETARY POLICY Discount Rate The Reserve Ratio Open Market Operations “Got to decrease the MS.” Fed • Tight Money Policy • Raise Discount Rate • Raise Reserve Ratio • Sell Bonds

  35. NS 48-58(MS=DD+CurrencyofPublic) 48.The 3 tools of monetary policy are open market operations, changes in RR, & (changes in T/changes in G/ changes in discount rate). 49. The main toolof the Fed in regulating the MS is(open-market operations/DR/RR). 50. When the Fed[$$] sells securities to thePUBLIC[T-bills], DD (don’t change/incr/decr) & banking system RR, ER & TR (incr/decr). 51. When the Fed[T-bills] buys securities from commercial banks[$$], DD (don’t change/increase/decrease) & ER and TR (increase/decrease). 52. When the commercial bankingsystem[$$] borrows from the Fed, DD (don’t change/increase/decrease) but ER & TR (incr/decr). 53. When commercial banks[$$] sell government securitiesto theFed[T-bills], DD (don’t change/incr/decr) but their ER & TR (do not change/incr/decr). 54. When the PUBLIC[T-bills] buys securities from the Fed[$$], DD (don’t change/incr/decr) and RR, ER, & TR of banks (don’t change/incr/decr). 55. When a commercial bankgets a loan fromthe Fed, their lending ability(incr/decr). 56. Assume that the RR is 25% & theThunder Bank borrows $100,000 from the Fed., commercial bank ERs are increased $________. PMC in the banking system are increased by $_______. TMS can be as much as $________. 57. The (margin requirement/discount rate) specifies the size of the down payment on stock purchases. 58. If the Fed were to increase the RR [10% to 20%] we would expect (higher/lower) interest rates, a (reduced/expanded) GDP and (appreciation/depreciation) of the dollar. [less “C”, “Ig”, & “Xn”] 100,000 400,000 400,000

  36. 59. When the RR is increased [10% to 50%], the ER of member banks are (increased/decreased)and the monetary multiplier is (incr/decr). 60. Assume the RR is 25% and the Fed buys $4 M of bonds from the public. The MS is increased by ($3/$4/) million and the PMC is increased by ($16/$12) M. Potential TMS is ($3/$4/$12/$16) M. 61. When the Fed lends to commercial banks, this is called the (Fed Funds Rate/discount rate) and when commercial banks make loans to one another, this is the (Fed Funds Rate/ Discount Rate). 62. The Keynesian cause-effect chain of aneasy money policy would be to (buy/sell) bonds; which would (increase/decrease) the MS, which would(lower/raise) interest rates & (incr/decr) Ig, “C”, Xn, & Y. 63. If the Fedwere to buy government securitiesin the open market, we would anticipate(lower/higher) interest rates, an (expanded/contracted) GDP, and (appreciation/depreciation) of the dollar. 64. If the Fedwere reducing demand-pull inflation, the proper policies would be (lower/raise) the discount rate, (lower/raise) the RR and ((buy/sell) government bonds. 65. Monetary policyis thought to be more effective in (controlling inflation/ fighting depressions) andfiscal is more effective(controlling inflation/ fighting depressions). 66.The “net export effect” of an “easy” money policy (strengthens/ weakens) that policy, while the “net export effect” of “expansionary” fiscal policy (strengthens/weakens) that policy.

If AD is AD3, what must the Fed do to get to AD2(FE GDP [Y*])? (increase/decrease) the MS from ($120/$140) to ($100/$120). 68. If the MS is MS1, & the goal of the Fed is FE GDP[Y*], they should (increase/decrease) the MS from ($100/$120) to ($120/$140). 69. Which of the following would shift the MS curve from MS3to MS2? (buying/selling) bonds. 70. If the MS is MS2 and the goal of the Fed is FE GDP of Y*, they should (increase/decrease/don’t change) the Ms.

  38. NS 71-72 71. An easy money policy will (apprec/deprec) the dollar & (incr/decr) U.S. Xn. A tight money policy will (apprec/deprec) the dollar & (incr/decr) U.S. Xn. 72. If the economy were in a severe recession, proper monetary policy would call for (lowering/raising) the discount rate, (lowering/raising) the RR, & (buying/selling) bonds. Proper fiscal policy would be to (incr/decr) “G” & (incr/decr) “T”, both of which would result in a bugetary (deficit/surplus).

If your bank borrows $50,000 from the Fed, does this automatically increase the MS? _____ Does this loan increase the amount in RR?_____ ER? ____ With 10% RR, PMC is __________. TMS is __________. 2. If the RR is 50% & theFed buys $100 mil. of securities from thepublic, then:MS is increased by ________. PMC is _________. TMS is ________. 3. What will cause the Dt(& total demand) for money curve to shift right? (increase/decrease) in nominal (money) Y? 4. When the Fedbuys bonds from banks [or gives them a loan], DD are (incr/decr/ unchanged) but their ER & TR both (incr/decr/unchanged). 5. If the Fed buys $10 million of securities from the public, with a RR of 40%, MS is increased by ________ & PMC is _________. TMS is ________. 6. If the Fed decreased the RR from 20% to 10%, we would expect (higher/lower) interest rates, (appreciation/depreciation) of the dollar, and an (increase/decrease) in GDP. 7. DD of $100,000 and RR of 25% in a commercial banking system with TR of $40,000. PMC in the banking system is ($240,000/$60,000). 8.
