Suppose that velocity is constant and the long-run rate of economic growth is 3%. The money supply is growing 6% per year and the real interest rate is 2%.

a) What is the nominal interest rate?

b) If the Central Bank increases the money growth rate by 2% what is the change in nominal interest rate?

c) Suppose that the money demand function is represented by the equation (M/P)^d= 0.25 Y. What is the income velocity of money?

If you know how to do it can you please show your work. I know nominal interest rate= inflation rate+ real interest rate, but i left my book at school and I don't know how to calculate for inflation using the numbers provided...and this is the last question.

Thanks.
