4 II. True/False Section (20 points) For each question provide a short explanation (no more than 1-2 sentences) of your answer. Use equations if necessary 1. (True/False) TRUE An increase in the discount rate would be a signal of a tightening in the money supply. Higher discount rate reduce the amount of reserves that commercial banks borrow from the Fed and money supply declines. 2. (True/False) FALSE Growth in the labor force is the only identified source of growth in potential GDP. Growth in the labor force is one of the sources of growth in potential GDP. Potential GDP expands due to the technological growth 3. (True/False) TRUE If the Federal Reserve buys bonds, and the sellers prefer to keep the proceeds in currency, then the potential increase in the total money supply will be smaller than if they keep the proceeds in banks.
