Answer to Question 1

This statement is incorrect because in the long run an increase in the quantity of money increases only the price level. Indeed, it increases the price level by the same percentage. So if the Fed followed the advice and increased the quantity of money by 100 percent (which doubles it), then in the long run the only effect is to increase the price level by 100 percent.

Answer to Question 2

B
