Supply of money
Supply of money is a stock concept. It refers to total
stock of money by the people of a country at a point of time.
M1= C+DD+OD. (Currency+ Demand Deposits+ Other deposits
M2= M1+ Deposits with post office savings bank account
M3= M1+ Net time deposits with the commercial banks.
M4= M3+ Total deposits with post offices. (Other than in the form of NSC)
Narrow money- M1 or M2
Broad money- M3 or M4
M3 is aggregate monetary resources of the country
India is governed by Minimum reserve system. The entire currency issued has the backing of minimum gold reserves.
Near money refers to assets that can be quickly converted into cash.
How Banks Create money?
Suppose Mr. A deposits Rs.
1000 in a PQR bank, The
bank will keep certain
percentage of it as reserves
and it will lent the remaining
amount.
If the percentage of required
reserves is 10 then the bank
will keep 100 Rs. and it will
lend 900 Rs.

So the 900 Rs. which is lent
will be deposited in another
bank say XYZ, out of 900 Rs.
81 Rs. will be kept as reserve
and 819 Rs. will be lent. This
process will be repeated over
and over again.
Money created out of 1000
Rs. will be calculated by
Money multiplier.
Money multiplier= 1/Reserve
Ratio = 1/0.1= 10
Money created out of 1000
Rs. = 900*10= 9000
Theories of demand for money 1. Quantity theory of money MV=PT (Fisher’s equation)
M- Represents money supply.
V- Represents Velocity of money. (The number of time money changes hands)
P- Represents average price level.
T- Represents the volume of transactions in the economy.
Quantity theory of money assumes that increases in the quantity of money leads to inflation.
Classical quantity theory of money- P= f(M)
Cambridge equation- Md =kPY
Y is the physical level of aggregate or national output.
P is average price
K is the proportion of national output/Income that people want to hold.
Assumption MS’ is determined by the monetary authority.
2. Keynesian theory of demand for money
Keynes said that
money was
demanded due to
three main
motives:
(1) The transactions
motive,
(2) The precautionary
motive
(3) The speculative
motive.
Md=L(Y,r) Md is
money demand, Y is
income and r is rate of
interest.
Md has positive
relation with Y and r
has inverse
relationship with Md.
3. Friedman’s theory of
demand for money
M/P = f (y, w; Rm, Rb, Re, gp,
u ) Where M is the total
Money and banking notes and MCQs for UGC NET

stock of money demanded; P
is the price level; у is the real
income; w is the fraction of
wealth in non-human form:
Rm is the expected nominal
rate of return on money;
Rb is the expected rate of
return on bonds; Re is the
expected nominal rate of
return on equities; gp=(1/P)
(dP/dt) is the expected rate
of change of prices of goods
and hence the expected
nominal rate of return on
physical assets; and u stands
for variables other than
income that may affect the
utility linked to money.
According to Friedman
Demand for money is stable
due to Permanent income
expectations of the citizens.
Supply of money is unstable
due to actions of monetary
authorities.
Friedman’s theory is theory
of demand for money.
