The correct answer is C. The Federal Reserve Board can boost the economy and promote economic growth by selling more bonds through open market operations.
To understand why this is the correct answer, we need to understand how the Federal Reserve's open market operations work. Open market operations involve the buying and selling of government securities, such as bonds, by the Federal Reserve. When the Federal Reserve sells bonds, it takes money out of the banking system, which reduces the amount of money available for lending and borrowing. This process is known as a contractionary monetary policy.
By selling more bonds, the Federal Reserve reduces the amount of money in circulation and raises interest rates. This makes borrowing more expensive and reduces the amount of money available for spending. The goal of this policy is to slow down economic activity and control inflation. However, it can also have the effect of slowing down economic growth.
Option A, raising the discount rates to inhibit borrowing, is another way the Federal Reserve can regulate the economy. However, it is not a method to boost the economy and promote economic growth. Raising the discount rates makes borrowing more expensive, which can slow down economic activity.
Option B, taking money out of circulation, is not a specific action that the Federal Reserve can take. It is a general concept related to contractionary monetary policy, but it does not describe a specific action the Federal Reserve can take to boost the economy.
Option D, requiring that banks keep less money in their vaults, is not a method the Federal Reserve uses to boost the economy. Requiring banks to keep less money in their vaults could potentially increase the money available for lending and stimulate economic activity, but it is not an action that the Federal Reserve typically takes.
