Answer to Question 1

An increase in productivity shifts both the wage and the price-setting curves by the same proportion and thus has no effect on the natural rate.

Answer to Question 2

A Fed purchase of bonds will cause an increase in H and an increase in the money supply. At the initial interest rate, there will be an excess supply of money. The interest rate will fall to restore money market equilibrium. All else fixed, there will be no change in money demand.
