Answer to Question 1

Mutual fund balances are part of M2, but are not part of M1. Checking account balances are included in both money supply measures. Thus M1 will increase by 2,000 with the increase in checking account balances. M2 will not change, as the 2,000 increase in checking account balances is offset by the 2,000 decrease in mutual fund accounts.

Answer to Question 2

A
