I tried sending this to the group, but a few of you have replied that you only got it second hand, so I'm attempting to resend it to the GROUP for MORE responses. . . thanks for those who have already responded!

In the CSM - Wachtel Chapter 3 (p. 179)
Q. 3 (T/F)
The economy is in equilibrium when desired savings equals desired investment.

Answer
(TRUE)

My question is:
While this is true for the goods market, is it also true for the money market?

My assumption:
Based on the answer given by CSM, because "the goods and money markets interact to determine the equilibrium values for both output and interest rates." it is true . . . is my reasoning correct?

Q. 13 (T/F)
Economists who favor a monotarist approach to economics believe there exists a strong relationship between money demand and interest rates.

Answer
(FALSE):

According to the CSM, "they place little importance on this relationship"

Can anyone shed light on why this is???

Any one else find Question 9 to be confusing???
Question 3 makes sense, but I can't seem to make the connection between the two . . .
CAN ANYONE HELP?

Thanks
