Suppose that each 0.1-percentage-point increase in the equilibrium interest rate induces a $3 billion decrease in real planned investment spending by businesses. In addition, the investment multiplier is equal to 5, and the money multiplier is equal to 3. Furthermore, every $10 billion decrease in the money supply brings about a 0.1-percentage-point increase in the equilibrium interest rate. Use this information to answer the following questions under the assumption that all other things are equal. Calculate by how much the real planned investment must decrease if the Federal Reserve desires to bring about a $60 billion decrease in the money supply level.
