Keyenes 3 reasons for keeping money balances
|
Precautionary
Speculative Transactions |
|
according to says law
|
supply creates it own demand , (there is preciciely enough income w/ manufacturing to purchase everything produced)
the economy will never suffer from unemployment or under consumption even though malthus was confused - classical economists explained that market forces of supply and demand would shift to always be gogin towards full employment. |
|
in classical interest rate theory, falling rates
|
decrease the savings rate , increase investment spending
|
|
according to classical economists rising aggregate demand
|
rising aggregate demand leads to inflation
|
|
in classical economics - the aggregate supply curve determines
|
level of output
|
|
in Keynesian model - a decrease in income leads to a decrease in
|
consumption
|
|
In they keynesian model , money demand is positively related
|
to income
|
|
Classical Theory of interest rates
|
saving is a direct function of the interest rate. Investment is an indirect function of the interest rate.
|
|
Cambridge Cash Balance Version of Quantity Theory
|
M=kPy
M=money supply k=cash balance y=gdp this expresses how as GDP rises , people have to keep a larger cash balance on hand to spend , this will require a bigger money supply to keep price level the same. |
|
what does the classicist model not include
|
a money supply that can change - thus monetary policy is not in their model.
|
|
the main DIFFERENCE between Keyenes and classicists
|
Keynes did not think that fluctuating prices and interest rates would push the level of economic activity toward fully employment , especially in the short run.
|
|
interest rates according to classics v keynesians
|
k- i rates are from supply and demand of money
class- i rates are from savings and investment ( classicists say supply and demand for money determine the price level) |
|
Bonds - Coupon Rate
|
Coupon Amount / Face value of the bond
|
|
Bonds- Current Yield
|
Coupon amount/ Current Price of the bond
|
|
when a bond sells for over face value
|
the actual yield of the bond (coupon rate) is obviously higher than the current yield - and a higher bond price reflects this
|
|
Yield to maturity
|
the rate of discount that makes the sum of present values for all future payments equal to the purchase price.
|
|
standard deviation is a good way to measure
|
risk of a financial asset in ones portfolio
|
|
which type of bonds offer the lowest yield
|
MUNICIPAL BONDS - these are even lower than t bonds bc of their tax exemption
|
|
how to find the expected yield for a security
|
simply the average yeild
|
|
if velocity goes down, how does this effect K
|
k will go up , since money is turning over slower then K (the cash balance) required is going to be higher.
