Explanation:

Here are the options for the question:

a. Your analysis assumes that Real GDP is constant over time, and it is not.

b. Your analysis assumes that velocity is constant, and it is not.

c. Your analysis assumes that you can correctly define the money supply.

e. a, b and c

According to the constant-money-growth-rate rule, the government should target money growth rate in a way that it will be equal to growth rate of the real GDP.

The likely thing that economist Smith, who favors activist monetary policy would say to economist Jones is that Jones is assuming velocity will be constant, and is also correctly defining the money supply which should not.be the case as velocity isn't always constant.
