I don't have time/patience to answer all these questions, there are about 20 in total. PM me if you can do these questions, we can work out the details to do all, or some. Thanks.
Here are some of the questions:
What determines whether a financial asset is included in the M1 money supply? Why are interest-earning checkable deposits included in M1, whereas interest-earning savings accounts and Treasury bills are not?
Why are banks able to maintain reserves that are only a fraction of the demand and savings deposits of their customers? Is your money safe in a bank? Why or why not?
What is the Federal Funds Interest rate? if the Fed wants to use open market operations to lower the federal funds rate, what action should it take?
Suppose that the reserve requirement is 10 percent and the balance sheet of the People's National Bank looks like the accompanying example.

b. What is the maximum loan that the bank could extend?
c. Indicate how the bank's balance sheet would be altered if it extended this loan (show the new t-account).
d. Suppose that the required reserves were 20 percent. If this were the case, would the bank be in a position to extend any additional loans? Explain.

Will increases in government spending financed by borrowing help promote a strong recovery from a severe recession. Why or why not?

What is the current rate of unemployment (See bls.gov and indicate the month you are reporting)? How rapidly has GDP grown during the past 3 quarters (See bea.gov and state the quarterly growth rate for each year)? What do these figures indicate about the validity of the Keynesian view?
