Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

The equation of exchange is MSV = PY, where MS is the money supply, V is the velocity of money, and PY is the nominal GDP. It is an accounting identity, so is not a theory. The equation of exchange becomes the quantity theory of money and prices by assuming that velocity is constant and that real GDP (Y) is stable. Then we have P = (MS)V/Y or that a change in the money supply will lead only to a proportionate change in the price level.
