Answer to Question 1

In the bank lending channel, an expansionary monetary policy causes aggregate expenditure to increase for two reasons: (1 ) the increase in households' and firms' spending from the drop in interest rates, and (2 ) the increased availability of bank loans. In other words, if banks expand deposits by lowering interest rates on loans, the amounts that bank-dependent borrowers can borrow and spend increases at any real interest rate.

Answer to Question 2

B
