It is imperative that I understand these two questions, because they are questions on the final that I am doing right at this moment-
First:
5. Suppose you have $20,000 to invest in a bond; you then hear a rumor that that the fed is about to lower the discount rate dramatically. Would you rather invest now or wait until it goes down? Explain fully.
Now I know you're supposed to wait to deposit until they drop, but I can't remember why [img]tongue.gif[/img]
7. Under what circumstances can a budget deficit, not immediately financed by printing new money, still be inflationary? Explain fully.
And thats the other-which im drawing a blank on. I need these answers, or at least understand where the questions coming from. There are only 12 ?s on the exam after all [img]tongue.gif[/img]
I've noticed about 0% of the people here are economically savvy, so I hope I'm not wasting my time [img]tongue.gif[/img]
HUGE thanks to anyone who can help
