econ question;

Explain how political systems are not always drivers of economic systems.

Step 1: The first part of the instructions/rubric is to discuss a reason why contractionary policy should be used. What kind of things can happen in the economy to cause the Fed to need to use contractionary monetary policy? What kind of things would they look for to let them know that the economy is growing too fast and needs to slow down?

Step 2: The next part of the instructions is to explain how each of the three tools of the Fed (open market operations, changing interest rates, and changing reserve requirements) can be used to contract the money supply. It’s important here that when you are explaining them, you are specifically talking about how to use them to contract the money supply, not just how they could affect it. For example, for interest rates, you can’t just say “we can raise or lower them.” You need to explain which of those actually is contractionary.

Step 3: The last part has you explain why you choose the tool you chose, and why the other two options weren’t chosen.

If it would help make sure you are covering everything, you can break this down into a sort of checklist:

1. What would be happening in the economy to cause the Fed to believe that contractionary monetary policy is needed?

2. How can the Fed use Open Market Operations to contract the money supply?

3. How can the Fed use changing reserve requirements to contract the money supply?

4. How can the Fed use changing interest rates to contract the money supply?

5. Which tool have you chosen, why is that the best option, and why are the other two options worse than the one you chose?

(a)Suppose the market demand function for orchids (in pots) is given by Q=1400-30P. Now we rank the MB of each pot of orchids from the highest to the lowest, what is the MB of the 200th pot of orchids?

(b)Suppose the market supply function for orchids (in pots) is given by Q=40P-400. Now we rank the MC of each pot of orchids from the lowest to the highest what is the MC of the 200th pot of orchids?

. It has been reported that some retailers may be refusing to accept cash (currency) as payment in exchange for products and services due to the pandemic. (I am not talking about BART letting riders ride for free earlier this year). A. If this is proven to be true, what may this mean for the millions of Americans who do not have the ability to pay in any other way? B. If this is ‘illegal’, or MAY be ‘illegal,’ then what, if any, penalties should there be, in theory? Why? C. How might these penalties be enforced? D. Before March, 2020, the city of San Francisco took steps to try to prohibit merchants (sellers) from refusing cash as payment for services and products. It was argued that it may be discriminatory for a seller to refuse cash as payment, as millions of people in our country do not have a credit card, a debit card, a bank account, a checking account, or the ability to pay by ‘electronic transfer’. In your opinion, is it discriminatory for a seller to refuse cash as payment for small, ‘everyday’ items? Why or why not? E. Is it discriminatory and unfair for a society as wealthy as ours (at least $99 trillion in household wealth) to allow some children and young adults to go without a working computer with internet access in their homes? Why?
