Determinants of money supply


There are two types of money M= Ordinary money H= High powered money or base money M= C+ DD +OC H= C + R + OD The difference between R and DD can be explained with the concept of credit creation by banks .

Determinants of Money Supply


Ms= m.H Where Ms = Money Supply m=money multiplier H= High powered money

Credit creation by commercial banks Assumption Currency deposit ratio =c=.5 Required reserve ratio = r =0.1 Assets of banks are only loans given by them Banks offer only demand deposits

Process
Public comes in possession of H worth Rs 60 crores . Public keep Rs 20 crores in currency and Rs 40 crores in bank deposits . Banks have Reseves of Rs 40 crores.As r is .1 banks keep Rs 4 crores in cash and rest of the money the lend .

Various multipliers
Deposit multiplier = 1/(c+r)=1.667 Bank credit multiplier = 1- r/(c+r)=1.5 Money multiplier = 1+c/(c+r) =2.5

Study the information given in the Balance Sheet of a Central Bank Particulars Million Units of Currency (MUC) Credit to Govt. 1650 Credit to Banks 520 Govt. Deposits 80 Deposits of Banks 130 Credit to Commercial Sector 140 Foreign Exchange Assets 25 Other Assets 15 Other non-monetary liabilities 10 Net Worth 350

Given are the Govt. Money as 25 MUC, Currency deposit ratio as 20 % and the Reserve ratio as 15 %. Compute the total money supply in the economy

Answer
Money supply in the economy MS = High powered money x money multiplier Money Multiplier mm =1 +c / c + r =1 +.20 / .20 + .15 mm =1.20 / .35 =3.4 High powered Money = Credit to govt. + Credit to banks + Credit to Commercial Sector + Foreign Exchange assets +Other Assets Govt. Deposits Net worth Other Non Monetary liabilities =1650 +520 +140 +25 +15 -80 -350 -10 =1910 High powered Money =1910 +25 (govt. money) =1935 Money Supply =1935 x 3.4 = 6579 Money Supply = 6579 MUC
