29、Correct answer is A

"Money, Banks, and the Federal Reserve," Michael Parkin

2008 Modular Level I, Vol. 2, pp. 364-366

Study Session 6-24-e

explain the goals of the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) in conducting monetary policy and how the Fed uses its policy tools to control the quantity of money, and describe the assets and liabilities on the Fed's balance sheet

Selling government securities and raising reserve requirements would both serve to decrease the supply of money, which would be inconsistent with implementing a more expansionary monetary policy.
