EXCHANGE RATES, AGGREGATE EXPENDITURES DETERMINANT: One of several specific aggregate expenditures determinants assumed constant when the aggregate expenditures line is constructed, and that shifts the aggregate expenditures line when it changes. An increase in the exchanges rates causes an increase (upward shift) of the aggregate expenditures line. A decrease in the exchanges rates causes a decrease (downward shift) of the aggregate expenditures line. Other notable aggregate expenditures determinants include consumer confidence, federal deficit, inflationary expectations, and interest rates.

Lesson 19: Money Creation | Unit 4: The Multiplier Page: 18 of 23

Topic: The Money Multiplier <=PAGE BACK | PAGE NEXT=>

Checkable deposits are only part of the money supply.
  • Looking only at checkable deposits, a $100 deposit gives us $1,000 with a deposit multiplier of 10.
However:
  • Money, in total, doesn’t expand by $1,000.
  • First: Banks might keep a few excess reserves, which limits deposit and money creation.
  • Second: Loans might leak out of checkable deposits and into savings deposits, which limits money creation.
  • Third: Loans might leak out of checkable deposits and into cash, which limits reserves and money creation.
Note:
  • The Federal Reserve uses a complex money multiplier to control the amount of money circulating in the economy.

ALTERNATIVE UNEMPLOYMENT RATES

The official unemployment rate estimated and reported monthly by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) using data from Current Population Survey is one of six alternative measures of unemployment tracked and reported by the BLS, officially labeled sequentially U1 through U6. The "official" unemployment rate is U3. The other five measures seek to document different ways in which labor can be under utilized, including unemployment duration, job losers, discouraged workers, marginal workers, and part-time workers.

Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time watching infomercials wanting to buy either a combination CD player, clock radio, and telephone (with answering machine) or a revolving spice rack. Be on the lookout for spoiled cheese hiding under your bed hatching conspiracies against humanity.

This isn't me! What am I?

The standard "debt" notation I.O.U. does not mean "I owe you," but actually stands for "I owe unto..."
