• 5. As the use of credit cards became more prominent and the availability of credit broader than ever, why are credit cards not included in the MS?
![Page 14: Activity 35](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815df2550346895dcc2596/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• 5. As the use of credit cards became more prominent and the availability of credit broader than ever, why are credit cards not included in the MS?
• A credit card differs from a loan in that it’s use is a promise to pay. – An issuer makes a
payment on behalf of the user, but then the user must make payment to the issuer.
• If loans and credit card use were counted as money, one economic transaction would be double-counted in the money supply.

• 6. Why is it difficult for the FED to get an accurate measure of the money supply (MS)?
![Page 16: Activity 35](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815df2550346895dcc2596/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• 6. Why is it difficult for the FED to get an accurate measure of the money supply (MS)?
• Because of the volume of transactions in the US, – which can range into the
trillions on a daily basis, • getting an accurate
measure of each transaction can be an arduous task.
• The inputs are constantly changing – as banks make new loans – and people repay loans
ahead of schedule
