Dollar is only backed by "Faith," the fact most people "want it," and
not enough $ floating around out there such that everybody can have all they want!

Interest
The price you pay for using someone else's money (accounting cost or explicit cost)
OR
holding your own money as cash.
(opportunity cost or implicit cost)
![Page 8: 1 MONETARY POLICY Federal ReserveFederal Reserve (Central Bank) controls money supply](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519f8e755034619378b4621/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Interest
Nominal interest rates (market rates)
Real interest rates– A return net of inflation and risk premium
Risk-Free interest rates– Government treasury securities, no risk
premium.
![Page 9: 1 MONETARY POLICY Federal ReserveFederal Reserve (Central Bank) controls money supply](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519f8e755034619378b4621/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Interest
Nominal Interest Rate =
real interest rate
+ compensation for inflation
+ default risk premium
![Page 10: 1 MONETARY POLICY Federal ReserveFederal Reserve (Central Bank) controls money supply](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519f8e755034619378b4621/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Real Interest Rate
The real interest rate is the price of money, net of inflation and risk, that people are willing to accept for deferring present consumption until some future time period– $1 in your hand right now is worth more than
the promise (without risk) of $1 in your hand a year from now.
– Even with 0 inflation.
![Page 11: 1 MONETARY POLICY Federal ReserveFederal Reserve (Central Bank) controls money supply](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519f8e755034619378b4621/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Real Interest Rate
Example:
You can save money by ordering many items through the mail.
Why do people drive to Walmart?
![Page 12: 1 MONETARY POLICY Federal ReserveFederal Reserve (Central Bank) controls money supply](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519f8e755034619378b4621/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Real Interest Rate
If $1 right now to you equals (has same value as) $1.05 one year from now, guaranteed, with zero inflation,
you have a real rate of interest of 5%
![Page 13: 1 MONETARY POLICY Federal ReserveFederal Reserve (Central Bank) controls money supply](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519f8e755034619378b4621/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
Nominal Interest Rate
If inflation was expected to be 10% from now until one year from now, what market interest rate would you demand to have, to get your 5% real rate of interest? Assume no risk.
Answer: 15%.
![Page 14: 1 MONETARY POLICY Federal ReserveFederal Reserve (Central Bank) controls money supply](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519f8e755034619378b4621/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
Nominal Interest Rate
If you thought there was some risk that you might never see your $1.00,
you would add a risk premium.
![Page 15: 1 MONETARY POLICY Federal ReserveFederal Reserve (Central Bank) controls money supply](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519f8e755034619378b4621/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Interest Rates on Govt. Securities:

= Real rate + E(inflation over life of security)

MONETARY POLICY
Federal Reserve can or the money
supply in order to change the level of
output and prices (Monetary Policy).
![Page 23: 1 MONETARY POLICY Federal ReserveFederal Reserve (Central Bank) controls money supply](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519f8e755034619378b4621/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

3 Tools to Change Money Supply:
Open-market operations (buying and selling treasury bonds, notes, and bills).
Discount rate: Interest rate banks are charged when they borrow from the Fed.
Reserve requirement: % of deposits that must be held by a bank as vault cash or on account with the federal reserve.
![Page 24: 1 MONETARY POLICY Federal ReserveFederal Reserve (Central Bank) controls money supply](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519f8e755034619378b4621/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
24
Open Market Operations
When the Federal Reserve sells more treasury securities than it buys:
Money Supply Decreases
When the Federal Reserve buys more treasury securities than it sells:
Money Supply Increases
![Page 25: 1 MONETARY POLICY Federal ReserveFederal Reserve (Central Bank) controls money supply](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519f8e755034619378b4621/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
25
The Discount Rate
The discount rate is adjusted to complement open market operations and to support the direction the Fed is taking in monetary policy.
![Page 26: 1 MONETARY POLICY Federal ReserveFederal Reserve (Central Bank) controls money supply](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519f8e755034619378b4621/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26
Reserve Requirement
Commercial Banks, Savings Banks, Savings and Loans, Credit Unions, and Branches of Foreign Banks are subject to reserve requirements.
Reserve requirement may range from 8 to 14 percent of demand deposits and interest-bearing accounts offering unlimited checking privileges.
