What Is Money?
Money is an asset that is widely used andaccepted as a means of payment.
Different groups of assets may be classified asmoney.
Currency and checking accounts form a usefuldefinition of money, but bank deposits in the
foreign exchange market are excluded from thisdefinition.

What Is Money? (cont.)
Money is very liquid: it can be easily andquickly used to pay for goods and services.
Money, however, pays little or no rateof return.
Suppose we can group assets into money(liquid assets) and all other assets
(illiquid assets). All other assets are less liquid but pay a higher
return.

Money Supply
Who controls the quantity of money thatcirculates in an economy, the money supply?
Central banks determine the money supply. In the US, the central bank is the Federal
Reserve System.
The Federal Reserve directly regulates the amountof currency in circulation.
It indirectly controls the amount of checkingdeposits issued by private banks.

Money Demand
Money demand is the amount of assets thatpeople are willing to hold as money (insteadof illiquid assets).
We will consider individual money demand andaggregate money demand.
What influences willingness to hold money?

What Influences IndividualDemand for Money?
1. Expected returns/interest rate on money relativeto the expected returns on other assets.
2. Risk: the risk of holding money principally comes
from unexpected inflation, thereby unexpectedlyreducing the purchasing power of money.
but many other assets have this risk too, so this risk is notvery important in money demand
3. Liquidity: A need for greater liquidity occurs wheneither the price of transactions increases or thequantity of goods bought in transactions increases.

What Influences AggregateDemand for Money?
1. Interest rates: money pays little or no interest, sothe interest rate is the opportunity cost of holdingmoney instead of other assets, like bonds, whichhave a higher expected return/interest rate.
A higher interest rate means a higher opportunity cost ofholding money lower money demand.
2. Prices: the prices of goods and services bought intransactions will influence the willingness to hold
money to conduct those transactions. A higher price level means a greater need for liquidity to
buy the same amount of goods and services highermoney demand.

What Influences AggregateDemand for Money? (cont.)
3. Income: greater income implies more goodsand services can be bought, so that moremoney is needed to conduct transactions.
A higher real national income (GNP) meansmore goods and services are being producedand bought in transactions, increasing the need
for liquidity higher money demand.

A Model of Aggregate Money Demand
The aggregate demand for money can be expressed by:
Md= P x L(R,Y)
where:
Pis the price levelYis real national income
Ris a measure of interest rates
L(R,Y) is the aggregate realmoney demand
Alternatively:Md/P = L(R,Y)
Aggregate real money demand is a function of national incomeand interest rates.

The Money Market
The money market uses the (aggregate) moneydemand and (aggregate) money supply.
The condition for equilibrium in the money market is:
Ms= Md
Alternatively, we can define equilibrium using thesupply of real money and the demand for real money(by dividing both sides by the price level):
Ms/P = L(R,Y)
This equilibrium condition will yield an equilibriuminterest rate.

The Money Market (cont.)
When there is an excess supply of money,there is an excess demand for interestbearing assets.
People with an excess supply of money are willingto acquire interest bearing assets (by giving uptheir supply of money) at a lower interest rate.
Potential money holders are more willing to holdadditional quantities of money as the interest rate(the opportunity cost of holding money) falls.

The Money Market (cont.)
When there is an excess demand formoney, there is an excess supply of interestbearing assets.
People who desire money but do not have accessto it are willing to sell assets with a higher interestrate in return for the money balances that theydesire.
Those with money balances are more willing togive them up in return for interest bearing assetsas the interest rate on these assets rises and asthe opportunity cost of holding money (the interestrate) rises.

Changes in the Money Supply
An increase in a countrys money supply
causes its currency to depreciate.
A decrease in a countrys money supplycauses its currency to appreciate.

Changes in the Foreign Money Supply
How would a change in the euro moneysupply affect the US money market andforeign exchange market?
An increase in the EU money supply causes adepreciation of the euro (appreciation ofthe dollar).
A decrease in the EU money supply causesan appreciation of the euro (a depreciation ofthe dollar).

Changes in theForeign Money Supply (cont.)
The increase in the EU money supply reducesinterest rates in the EU, reducing theexpected return on euro deposits.
This reduction in the expected return on eurodeposits leads to a depreciation of the euro.
The change in the EU money supply does notchange the US money market equilibrium.

Long Run and Short Run
In the short run, the price level is fixed at some level.
the analysis heretofore has been a short run analysis.
In the long run, prices of factors of production and of
output are allowed to adjust to demand and supply intheir respective markets.
Wages adjust to the demand and supply of labor.
Real output and income are determined by the amount ofworkers and other factors of productionby the economys
productive capacitynot by the supply of money.
The interest rate depends on the supply of saving andthe demand for saving in the economy and the inflationrateand thus is also independent of the moneysupply level.

Long Run and Short Run (cont.)
In the long run, the level of the money supplydoes not influence the amount of real outputnor the interest rate.
But in the long run, prices of output andinputs adjust proportionallyto changes in themoney supply:
Long run equilibrium: Ms/P = L(R,Y)
Ms= P x L(R,Y)
increases in the money supply are matched byproportional increases in the price level.

Long Run and Short Run (cont.)
In the long run, there is a direct relationshipbetween the inflation rate and changes in themoney supply.
Ms= P x L(R,Y)
P = Ms/L(R,Y)
P/P =Ms/Ms-L/L
The inflation rate equals growth rate in moneysupply minus the growth rate for money demand.

Money and Prices in the Long Run
How does a change in the money supply causeprices of output and inputs to change?
1. Excess demand: an increase in the money supply
implies that people have more funds available to payfor goods and services.
To meet strong demand, producers hire more workers,creating a strong demand for labor, or make existingemployees work harder.
Wages rise to attract more workers or to compensateworkers for overtime.
Prices of output will eventually rise to compensate forhigher costs.

Money and Prices in the Long Run (cont.)
Alternatively, for a fixed amount of output and inputs,producers can charge higher prices and still sell all of theiroutput due to the strong demand.
2. Inflationary expectations:
If workers expect future prices to rise due to an expectedmoney supply increase, they will want to be compensated.
And if producers expect the same, they are more willing toraise wages.
Producers will be able to match higher costs if they expectto raise prices.
Result: expectations about inflation caused by an expectedmoney supply increase leads to actual inflation.

Money, Prices and theExchange Rates and Expectations
When we consider price changes in the longrun, inflationary expectations will have aneffect in the foreign exchange market.
Suppose that expectations about inflationchange as people change their minds, butactual adjustment of prices occurs afterwards.

Money, Prices andthe Exchange Ratesand Expectations
(cont.)Change in expectedreturn on euro deposits
The expected return oneuro deposits rises becauseof inflationary expectations:The dollar is expected tobe less valuable when
buying goods and servicesand less valuable whenbuying euros.The dollar is expected todepreciate, increasing thereturn on deposits in euros.

Money, Prices and theExchange Rates in the Long Run (cont.)
A permanent increase in a countrys money supply
causes a proportional long run depreciation of itscurrency.
However, the dynamics of the model predict a largedepreciation first and a smaller subsequent appreciation.

Exchange Rate Overshooting
The exchange rate is said to overshoot when itsimmediate response to a change is greater than itslong run response.
We assume that changes in the money supply have
immediate effects on interest rates and exchange rates.
We assume that people change their expectations aboutinflation immediately after a change in the money supply.
Overshooting helps explain why exchange rates are
so volatile. Overshooting occurs in the model because prices do
not adjust quickly, but expectations about prices do.

Exchange Rate Volatility
Changes in pricelevels are lessvolatile, suggestingthat price levelschange slowly.
Exchange rates areinfluenced byinterest rates andexpectations, whichmay change rapidly,
making exchangerates volatile.

Summary
1. Money demand on an individual level is determinedby interest rates and liquidity, the latter of which isinfluenced by prices and income.
2. Money demand on an aggregate level is determinedby interest rates, the price level and national income.
Aggregate real money demand depends negatively on theinterest rate and positively on real national income.
3. Money supply equals money demandor realmoney supply equals real money demandat theequilibrium interest rate in the money market.

Summary (cont.)
4. Short run scenario: changes in the moneysupply affect the domestic interest rate, aswell as the exchange rate.
An increase in the domestic money supply
1. lowers the domestic interest rate,
2. lowering the rate of return on domestic deposits,
3. causing the domestic currency to depreciate.

Summary (cont.)
5. Long run scenario: changes in the level of themoney supply are matched by a proportionalchange in prices, and do not affect real income andinterest rates.
An increase in the money supply
1. causes expectations about inflation to adjust,
2. causing the domestic currency to depreciate further,
3. and causes prices to adjust proportionally in the long run,4. causing interest rates return to their long run rate,
5. and causes a proportional long run depreciation in theexchange rate.

Summary (cont.)
6. Expectations about inflation adjust quickly,but prices adjust only in the long run, whichresults in overshooting of exchange rate.
Overshooting occurs when the immediateresponse of the exchange rate due to a changeis greater than its long run response.
Overshooting helps explain why exchange rates
are so volatile.
