Answer to Question 1

The central bank of Genovia should reduce the quantity of bank reserves deposited at the central bank by selling government bonds to private banks. This will lead to an increase in the federal funds rate which will in turn lead to an increase in the long-term interest rate. As a result, both consumption and investment will fall. A fall in consumption and investment leads to a decrease in aggregate demand. As a result, the aggregate price level will fall.

Answer to Question 2

B
