Answer to Question 1

The demand for new capital is downward sloping because there is an inverse relationship between the interest rate and the amount of new capital purchased. As the interest rate rises, some projects will become unprofitable (because their expected rate of return is lower than the market interest rate). Thus, as the interest rate rises, the quantity of new capital demanded will fall.

Answer to Question 2

D
