can u colse and re post your new q's pls
Ok
The answer to the first one is not "increase federal funds" I put that and got it wrong
The answer is not C either.
For the first question.
for the first one i think it should keep the rate low because during an economic recession, the Fed would want to increase the spending power of citizens. Lowering the discount rate, which is the interest rate banks pay to borrow currency, would increase the ability of banks to give loans. This is an expansionary action by the Fed.
