Answer to Question 1

C also depends on wealth. If any of the determinants of wealth change, without current disposable income changing, individuals will change current consumption. In short, there are other determinants of current consumption.

Answer to Question 2

A Fed sale of bonds will cause a reduction in H and a reduction in the money supply. This will cause an excess demand for money and the interest rate must increase to restore money market equilibrium. The LM curve will shift up as a result of this to reflect the now higher interest rate. The IS curve does not shift as a result of this. We would simply observe a movement along the IS curve.
