What are some potential problems with controlling the money supply?• The Fed’s control of the money supply is not
precise.• The Fed must wrestle with two problems that
arise due to fractional-reserve banking.– The Fed does not control the amount of money
that households choose to hold as deposits in banks.
– The Fed does not control the amount of money that bankers choose to lend.
