Real money demand in the economy is given by L = 0.5Y - 2500i, where Y is real income and i is the nominal interest rate. In equilibrium, real money demand L equals real money supply M/P. Suppose that Y equals 1000 and the real interest rate is 0.02. What is the maximum amount of seignorage revenue?
