Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The Federal Reserve could still change the money supply, because the initial purchase or sale of government securities would change checking account deposits. For instance, if the Fed purchases a 1,000 government bond from you and you deposit the funds in the bank, then checking account deposits and the money supply would go up 1,000. The simple deposit multiplier with a 100 percent required reserve ratio would equal one, not zero, so an increase in reserves still increases checking account deposits.
