The market forces in financial markets are determining that all asset yields (interest rates) are equal to 5% per year. A government bond issued today pays $10,000 per year for each of the next three years, and therefore, the price of the bond today is approximately $27,232.50. Suppose that you are the governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia and you want to reduce the interest rate to 2% by implementing a yield-curve control policy. What would you do? a. Buy any quantity of bonds at the prevailing price. b. Buy 50% of the stock of bonds. c. Increase the supply of 3-year government bonds to reduce the price of the bonds. d. Buy any quantity of bonds at $28,838.83 per bond. e. Sell any quantity of bonds at $28,838.83 per bond.

Consider an expansionary open market operation. Suppose the Federal Reserve buys government securities from commercial banks. Suppose that the sellers of government securities redeem these checks drawn on the New York Fed for currency. Then, ceteris paribus, bank reserves, currency in circulation, and thus the monetary base will increase.
