Money
• Money: Anything that is generally accepted in payment for goods or services or in the repayment of debt• Important!! Term “money” defined in Economics is different
from commonly used word “money” in everyday conversation!

32-3
Example of Money
So, what can you use for payment at Wal-Mart, McDonald’s, and Exxon gas station?• Currency (cash) including coins and bills
• Cash is an asset. If you have $20 bill, you can spend up to $20 worth of goods and services (e.g. gasoline).
• Check & debit card (electronic version of check)• A check is a means of payment, but it is worthless piece of paper
unless you write a payment and sign it.• Can you write $23,770 check at Toyota dealer to purchase Prius? Yes,
only if you have that amount at your bank.• You can write a check up to an amount in your checking account
without bouncing your check.• Your checking account balance is money, not check itself.
• Credit card? Not really.

32-4
Money by Definit ion
Not every means of payment is money. Money by definition must be• An asset (for repayment of debt)
• A credit card is not money because the credit card is a means of borrowing (not payment, but deferred payment).
• Once charged, you are expected to pay your credit card bill by check or cash (a.k.a. money).
• Generally accepted • If you can use only one or few places, then it is not
money.• Ex. Disney dollar is not money because it can be used
only at Disney store or Disney World.

Three Functions of Money
Money has three primary functions in any economy.• Medium of Exchange
• Anything used to pay for goods and services
• Unit of Account
• Anything used to measure value in economy
• Store of Value
• A repository of purchasing power over time
![Page 6: Econ789 chapter032](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022415/5a6553ff7f8b9a5b558b6b5b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
32-6
Money as Medium of Exchange
• Every modern economy needs money for efficient exchange of goods and services among people.
• Monetary exchange: Exchange of goods through moneyEx. You have fish and want a loaf of bread.
(You) Fish Money (???) Bread (???)
• Since money comes between two goods in exchange, it is a medium of exchange.
• Even though this involves two exchanges, actually it will take less time for exchanges.
• Money increases efficiency in economy: people can spend more time for production of goods and services rather than exchange.
![Page 7: Econ789 chapter032](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022415/5a6553ff7f8b9a5b558b6b5b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
32-7
Examples of Medium of Exchange
Many commodities have been used as money in various civilizations in history. Some form of money is better medium of exchange than others.• Yap stone money• American Indian wampum• Cigarette in U.S. prisons • Cowries seashell in the South Pacific and Africa• Which is better medium of exchange, Yap stone or
metal coin?
![Page 8: Econ789 chapter032](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022415/5a6553ff7f8b9a5b558b6b5b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
32-8
U.S. Dollar Bil ls
• In modern U.S. economy we use dollar bills and coins as medium of exchange.
• Dollar bills are called “Federal Reserve Note” because they are IOU (note payable) issued by the Federal Reserve Banks. They are assets for holders (households, firms, governments, and foreigners) of IOUs, but liabilities for issuers (the Federal Reserves) of IOUs.
![Page 9: Econ789 chapter032](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022415/5a6553ff7f8b9a5b558b6b5b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
32-9
Money and Generally Accepted
• Money must be generally accepted by definition.• In modern U.S. economy we use worthless paper
money rather than valuable commodity.• We accept worthless paper money because we
expect they are accepted by others.• If no one accepts money, money will seize its primary
function in an economy.• The government guarantees its general acceptance
by making it “legal tender”.
![Page 10: Econ789 chapter032](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022415/5a6553ff7f8b9a5b558b6b5b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
32-10
Money as Unit of Account
• In the U.S. a value (price) of every good and service is quoted in dollars and cents.• By using “dollar and cent” as a standard unit of
value, we can easily compare value of one good with others.
• Ex. How much is a Big Mac? Around $2.19. How much is a cheeseburger? About 99¢. So, you know which is more valuable.
![Page 11: Econ789 chapter032](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022415/5a6553ff7f8b9a5b558b6b5b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
32-11
Money As Store of Value
• Money can keep its purchasing power over time.
• When you receive your paycheck, you do not need to spend every dollar right at that moment. You can keep it in bank account or cash on hand, and spend it later.
• Money is not unique in this function. There are many assets (financial assets and commodity) which can serve as store of value.
![Page 12: Econ789 chapter032](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022415/5a6553ff7f8b9a5b558b6b5b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
32-12
Money As Store of Value
Any assets can serve as store of value. One may serve as a better store of value than another.
− Ex. Any physical and financial assets such as Yugioh-card, Saving account, bonds, stocks, gold, house
• Liquidity: the relative ease and speed with which an asset can be converted into medium of exchange−Money is the most liquid store of value.
• Purchasing Power: Amount of goods and services money can purchase.
![Page 13: Econ789 chapter032](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022415/5a6553ff7f8b9a5b558b6b5b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
32-13
Value of Money
• Prices affect purchasing power of money• Hyperinflation renders money unacceptable• Zimbabwe experienced 80 billion percent inflation
rate in 2008• When there are too many money in public, prices
of goods increase and a purchasing power of money falls.
• Federal Reserve is responsible for controlling quantity of money and maintaining a value of money

32-14
Evolution of Payment System
• Money is mainly used for making payments.• Over time, methods of payment evolve as the
technology and economy change.• Changes in payment system reduces
transactions cost (less time and effort to exchange) and create even better medium of exchange.
![Page 15: Econ789 chapter032](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022415/5a6553ff7f8b9a5b558b6b5b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
32-15
Tradit ional Methods of Payments
• Commodity Money• Money made up of precious metals or other
valuable commodity• Physical goods that have a value as a
commodity equal to its value as a medium of exchange
• Fiat money• Paper currency decreed by government as legal
tender• Money which does not have a value as a
commodity equal to its value as a medium of exchange
• Checks

32-16
Electronic Payment
You can also make payments electronically.• Debit cards• Electronic check (conversion)• Payment by cell phone (Google Wallet, Apple Pay)• Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT)• Electronic Bill Presentment and Payment (EBPP)• Stored-value card (Prepaid card & Smart card)• Electronic cash (e-cash):

32-17
Measuring Money Supply
• Money supply (Money aggregate): Amount of money in economy
• Why measuring money supply?• How people spend is an important factor affecting the
whole economy. How much people spend depends partly on how much money they have for purchasing (medium of exchange). Through the monetary policy the Federal Reserve affects people’s spending by changing the amount of money in the U.S. economy.
• In order to control money, the Federal Reserve must first know how much money are in an economy.
Fed → Money → Spending → Economy

• In the United States, the federal reserve system (the Fed) acts as the central bank.
• In most developed countries there is only one central bank. However, in the U.S. the Fed is divided into various organizational components for check and balance.• The federal government have attempted to establish a
single central bank twice, but due to fear of concentration of economic and monetary power, the Congress abolished such institutions.
• In 1931 the Congress established the twelve regional Federal Reserve banks.

Mission of Federal Reserve System
The Federal Reserve System is the central bank of the United States. It was founded by Congress in 1913 to provide the nation with a safer, more flexible, and more stable monetary and financial system. Over the years, its role in banking and the economy has expanded. Today, the Federal Reserve's duties fall into four general areas:• conducting the nation's monetary policy by influencing the monetary
and credit conditions in the economy in pursuit of maximum employment, stable prices, and moderate long-term interest rates
• supervising and regulating banking institutions to ensure the safety and soundness of the nation's banking and financial system and to protect the credit rights of consumers
• maintaining the stability of the financial system and containing systemic risk that may arise in financial markets
• providing financial services to depository institutions, the U.S. government, and foreign official institutions, including playing a major role in operating the nation's payments system
