Q

To loosen the Money Supply

Federal

A

1 Fed sees recession looming
2 Fed buys government securities on open market
3 Fed credits cash to reserve accounts of banks selling securities
a) Increase supply; create supply of excess reserves; banks now willing to lend
b) Greater availability of cash for overnight loans causes decline in Federal funds rate
4 Fall in interest rates stimulates investment spending by businesses
5 Rise in investment spending increases aggregate demand, which increases real GDP and reduces unemployment
(BEC SU 3.9.1.b.3)

24
Q

To tighten the Money Supply

Federal

A

1 Fed fears inflation heating up
2 Fed sells government securities on open market
3 Fed decreases cash in reserve accounts of banks buying securities
a) Decrease in supply of cash reduces excess reserves; banks unable to lend
b) Lower availability of cash for overnight loans causes decline in Federal funds rate
4 Rise in interest rates stimulates investment spending by businesses
5 Fall in investment spending reduces aggregate demand, which decreases price level and reduces inflation
(BEC SU 3.9.1.b.3)
