Growth rate of nominal Supply is 3%

Given that;

Income elasticity of money demand = 2/3

Interest elasticity of money demand = -0.1

Real income expected to grow = 4.5%

Find:

Growth rate of nominal Supply

Computation:

Inflation rate =  Growth rate - [Income elasticity of money demand × Real income expected to grow]4.5%

0 = Growth rate - [2/3 × - 1]4.5%

Growth rate of nominal Supply = 3%
