Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The real interest rate changes to eliminate the shortage of loanable funds. A shortage of loanable funds means that businesses and others want to borrow more than households and others are willing to loan so that the quantity of loanable funds demanded exceeds the quantity of loanable funds supplied. This shortage means that some businesses are willing to pay a higher interest rate. The real interest rate rises, and as it does so, the quantity of loanable funds demanded decreases and the quantity of loanable funds supplied increases. Both changes help eliminate the shortage of loanable funds and so the real interest rate rises until it reaches its equilibrium value.
