Velocity
! basic concept:
! example: In 2012,
! $500 billion in transactions
! money supply = $100 billion
! The average dollar is used in five transactions in
2012
! So, velocity = 5
CHAPTER 5
Inflation
Velocity, cont.
! This suggests the following definition:
where
V = velocity
T = value of all transactions
M = money supply
CHAPTER 5

Velocity, cont.
! Use nominal GDP as a proxy for total
transactions.
Then,
where

Y
= price of output
= quantity of output
P Y = value of output

How to Stop Inflation When Real Balances Depend on the Nominal Interest Rate
By examining the paths we expect the key monetary variables to follow, we can derive the path that
the money supply must follow to end an inflation. (1) At the top is the desired path of the price level P.
(2) Next is the rate of inflation , which is high until the period of price stability, when it drops to zero.
(3) The nominal interest rate i adjusts one-for-one with the rate in inflation. (4) The fall of the nominal
interest rate leads to a jump up in real balances M/P. (5) The path of the money supply M then
depends on the path of the price level P and the path of real balances M/P.
Note: Each variable is drawn on its own scale.
What monetary policy should the central bank pursue to achieve stable prices? That is,
what path should the money supply follow to end the inflation without causing deflation? To
answer this question, we work backward. We begin with the goal of price stabilization and
find the path of the money supply that is consistent with that objective. Figure 1 shows the
five steps to determining the path of the money supply.
1. The desired path of the price level is at the top of the figure. The price level is rising
during the hyperinflation. Then, the new monetary policy goes into effect and prices
stabilize.
2. Next is the rate of inflation , which is the growth in the price level. It is high until the
period of price stability, when it drops to zero.

! also depends on the nominal interest rate
