Answer:

A) must be 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Velocity of money is the rate of exchange of money in an economy

Use the following formula to calculate the velocity of money

Velocity of money = GDP value / Money Supply

Placing values in the formula

Velocity of money = $2 trillion / 0.5 trillion

Velocity of money = 4

Hence, Option A) must be 4 is correct option
