Economists occasionally speak of "helicopter money" as a shorthand approach to explaining increases in the money supply. Suppose the chair of the Federal Reserve flies over the country in a helicopter, dropping 10,000,000 newly printed $100 bills (a total of $1 billion). By how much will the money supply increase in the following scenarios, holding everything else constant: a. all of the new bills are held by the public as currency? b. all of the new bills are deposited in banks that choose to hold 10 percent of their deposits as reserves (and no one in the economy holds any currency)? c. all of the new bills are deposited in banks that practice 100-percent-reserve banking? d. people in the economy hold half of their money as currency and half as deposits

Assume that the following conditions exist: a. all banks are fully loaned up- there are no excess reserves, and desired excess reserves are always zero. b. the money multiplier is 5 .     c. the planned investment schedule is such that at a 4 percent rate of interest, investment =$1450 billion. at 5 percent, investment is $1420 billion. d. the investment multiplier is 3 . e.. the initial equilibrium level of real gdp is $12 trillion. f. the equilibrium rate of interest is 4 percent now the fed engages in contractionary monetary policy. it sells $1 billion worth of bonds, which reduces the money supply, which in turn raises the market rate of interest by 1 percentage point. calculate the decrease in money supply after fed's sale of bonds: $nothing billion.
