Introduction

“k” is a constant that tells us how This equation states that the
much money people want to hold quantity of real money balances
for every unit of income. demanded is proportional to real
income.
The Money Demand Function and the Quantity Equation
( M / P) kY

• So, the quantity theory of money states that the central bank,
which controls the money supply, has ultimate control over the
rate of inflation.
• If the central bank keeps the money supply stable, the price
level will be stable. If the central bank increases the money
supply rapidly, the price level will rise rapidly.
Inflation and the Interest Rate
r i
bank pays the nominal interest rate “i”
and the increase in consumer purchasing
power the real interest rate “r”. If we let
“π” represent the inflation rate the
relationship among these variables is…
i r
So, the real interest rate is the difference
between the nominal interest rate and the
rate of inflation.
r i
inflation and “πe” the expectation of future inflation.
This gives us the ex ante real interest rate…

The Nominal Interest Rate and the Demand for Money

The fisher equation
tells us this is equal
to the nominal
interest rate.
Additionally, money

The Nominal Interest Rate and the Demand for Money

As income “Y” rises the demand for money
rises and as the interest rate rises the
demand for money falls.
