Question

Suppose the velocity of money (V) is 5 and Real Output (Y) is 50.

If the Money Supply (M) is 100, what will be the Price Level (P)?

Pz2PEfhsNWI=

Correct! If we know the money supply, the velocity of money, and the amount of real output, as we do in this case, and we know that M × V = P × Y, so 100 × 5 = P × 50. Solving for P yields P = 10.

Sorry, that’s incorrect. If we know the money supply, the velocity of money, and the amount of real output, as we do in this case, and we know that M × V = P × Y, so 100 × 5 = P × 50.

Step 2

Question

If the Money Supply (M) is 150, what will be the Price Level (P)?

3sbCVm3rZ30=

Correct! If we know the money supply, the velocity of money, and the amount of real output, as we do in this case, and we know that M × V = P × Y, so 150 × 5 = P × 50. Solving for P yields P = 15.

Sorry, that’s incorrect. If we know the money supply, the velocity of money, and the amount of real output, as we do in this case, and we know that M × V = P × Y, so 150 × 5 = P × 50.

Step 3

Question

If the Money Supply (M) is 200, what will be the Price Level (P)?

dpSzXH2LmOc=

1:06

Correct! If we know the money supply, the velocity of money, and the amount of real output, as we do in this case, and we know that M × V = P × Y, so 200 × 5 = P × 50. Solving for P yields P = 20.

Sorry, that’s incorrect. If we know the money supply, the velocity of money, and the amount of real output, as we do in this case, and we know that M × V = P × Y, so 200 × 5 = P × 50.
