Directions:

Most articles in financial publications that deal with money, banking, and the inner-workings of monetary policy presuppose that the reader has a sophisticated understanding of the topic at hand. Your job is to essentially rewrite the article for a general audience that knows nothing about money, banking, and the inner-workings of monetary policy. Therefore, you need to touch on all of the key points outlined in the article and spend a significant amount of time explaining the underlying concepts and theories embedded in the article to an audience that knows nothing about the topic. You need to utilize the knowledge that you have gained from the money, banking, and monetary policy section of the course.

The writing assignment needs to be 3 pages long (excluding any graphics used) and it needs to be double spaced with size 12 font. The assignment will be graded based on the correct use of economic theory, proper use of grammar, insightfulness, and supporting evidence.

Sources need to be cited within the paper and in a works cited page. You don’t have to follow APA or MLA formats, but you need to make sure that you cite your sources. The paper needs to be uploaded as a Word document file into Canvas (Vericite).
