Have a question I need help with, it is a team assignment and my portion has to deal with the Monetary Policy part.  The Country we are doing a analysis and how it compares to the US is France.  So below is the listed criteria, a 400 word max analysis is all I need done for my part and one peer cited source.

Now, imagine your team has been given the responsibility to determine whether the firm should locate its new manufacturing plant in the U.S. or in one of the countries evaluated by your and your teammates in their Week 2 papers.  Consequently, your team needs to develop a 2,100-word (the word count includes the table) economic outlook/forecast.  Use thebolded words/phrases shown below as first-level headings for your paper.  Your paper should include the following:

• Economic Indicators Table.  Complete the economic indicators tablewith statistics for the U.S., which you can compare to the country that was the subject of one of your teammates' Week 2 papers; the economic indicators table is posted with this assignment as a Student Material.  OPTIONAL FORMAT FOR TABLE:  Your team has the option of incorporating this table into your paper or creating a separate PowerPoint presentation for the indicators listed in the table.  If you choose a PowerPoint presentation, your team needs to devote one slide to each economic indicator listed in the table, and your team still needs to submit an MS Word document with the other elements of this assignment as described below.
• Government Policies.  Discuss how U.S. government policies, including fiscal policies and trade policies, can influence economic growth.
• Monetary Policy.  Analyze how U.S. monetary policy could influence the long-run behavior of price levels, inflation rates, costs, and other real or nominal variables.
• Trade Deficits or Surpluses.  Describe how trade deficits or surpluses can influence GDP.
• Availability of Financing.  Discuss the importance of the market for loanable funds to the achievement of the strategic plan.
• In your conclusion, include recommendations on whether the new manufacturing plant should be located in the U.S. or in one of the countries evaluated by your teammates in their Week 2 papers.  Base your recommendations on the information you gathered for this paper, especially the information included in your economic indicators table and for your Week 2 paper.  In addition, your conclusion should review all the major elements of this assignment.   

Cite a minimum of three peer-reviewed sources not including your textbook (Mankiw).  Appropriate sources could include the Bureau of Economic Analysis, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Federal Reserve, and the St. Louis Federal Reserve web page at https://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/, which is referred to as FRED.
