Not enough money will slow down the economy Too much money can cause inflation because of higher price levels Monitoring the Supply and Demand is vital for economy’s central bank’s monetary policy to stabilize price levels and to support economic growth. THE QUANTITY THEORY OF MONEY According to QTM, the general price level of goods and services is proportional to the money supply in an economy. THE TIME VALUE OF MONEY states that a sum of money is worth more now than the same sum of money in the future. FUTURE VALUE = PV x \[1 + (i / n)\] ^ (n x t) PRESENT VALUE = FV / \[1 + (i / n)\] ^ (n x t) For example, A relative has offered to give you $8,000 and asks if you would rather receive the money today or wait two years. To ensure that getting the $8,000 today is worth more than if you waited, you can calculate its future value. If you decide to take the $8,000 and invest in an account at an annual rate of 6% FV = $8,000 x \[1 + (6%/1)\] ^ (1 x 2)FV PV = $8,000 / [1 + (0.06 / 1)] ^ (1 x 2) = $8,000 x (1 + 0.06) ^ 2FV = $8,988.80 In two years, your $8,000 investment Receiving $8,000 after 2 years is the same will be worth $8,988.80. as if you took $7,119.97 THE TIME VALUE OF MONEY (Seatwork) Problem 1: You have just won a “Philippines Lotto Lottery”.
