13. MEASURING MONEY M1: • Currency and checkable Deposit Accounts and other bank money instruments. • Most Liquid assets of a Financial System. M2: • M1 + Those assets which can’t be used directly as a mode of payment and converted into currency. • Saving account deposits M3: • M2+ Time deposits. • Assets which are important to large institution and not to individuals. • M0 • Base money or amount of money actually issued by the central bank .

15. DEMAND FOR MONEY-Classical theory • Quantity theory of money: The Transaction Motive: MV=PT • Velocity= nominal GDP/nominal money stock= PY/M • Quantity theory of money: The Income approach: Md=kPY where Y is nominal income • Md is directly proportional to real income or Md/P (real money demand) = kY . Thus k=1/V • Velocity is constant and does not depend on i or Y.

16. DEMAND FOR MONEY-Keynesian theory • Keynes focused on three motives- transaction, precautionary and speculative. • Aggregate speculative demand for money has inverse relation with current level of interest but upto a point. At low level of interest rates interest elasticity of money demand is infinite. • Demand for money depends on prices, interest rates and real income.

17. Money demand function • Md=P* L(Y,i) where i is nominal int. earned on non-monetary assets. • Md= P.L(Y, r+∏) where r is real rate of interest and ∏ is inflation rate. • Md/P= L(Y, r+∏) • Other factors • Wealth • Risk • Payment technologies

18. Monetarist approach • Md/P=h/i *Y • Md/P is demand for real balances • h/i is propensity to hold money • When the interest rate is very high everyone expects it to fall in future and hence anticipates capital gains from bond-holding. Hence people convert their money into bonds. Thus, speculative demand for money is low. Hence speculative demand for money is inversely related to the rate of interest.

19. Other factors affecting money demand • Demand for consumer spending • Uncertainty about future(precautionary demand) • Transaction costs to buy and sell stocks and bonds • Inflation • Demand for exports • Demand for domestic investments by foreigners • Central bank’s currency holding

20. Supply of Money • M1 = CU + DD • M2 = M1 + Savings deposits with Post Office savings banks • M3 = M1 + Net time deposits of commercial banks • M4 = M3 + Total deposits with Post Office savings organisations (excluding National Savings Certificates)
