Purpose of Assignment
Week 3 will help students develop an understanding of what money is,
what forms money takes, how the banking system helps create money, and
how the Federal Reserve controls the quantity of money. Students will
learn how the quantity of money affects inflation and interest rates in
the long run, and production and employment in the short run. Students
will find that, in the long run, there is a strong relationship between
the growth rate of money and inflation. Students will review the basic
concepts macroeconomists use to study open economies and will address
why a nation’s net exports must equal its net capital outflow. Students
will demonstrate the relationship between the prices and quantities in
the market for loanable funds and the prices and quantities in the
market for foreign-currency exchange. Student will learn to analyze the
impact of a variety of government policies on an economy’s exchange rate
and trade balance.
