  3. Money and BankingEvolution of Money • Money – most basic of all financial assets, used to buy goods and services • Something that is regularly accepted in exchange for goods and services • Three Functions of money: • Medium of exchange • Unit of Account • Store of Value

  4. Functions of Money • Medium of Exchange – acts as a payment for goods and services; buyers give sellers in exchange for products • Barter system – economy that relies on the exchange of product for product • The direct exchange of goods and services for other goods and services. • Double coincidence of wants – situation where two people simultaneously have a product that the other wants

  6. Unit of Account • Unit of Account– an expression of value; a way for comparing the values of goods and services • Keep track of debts and investments Fossil – $89.95 Bulova – $399.95 Rolex - $11,995

  7. Functions of Money • Store of Value – money holds its value if you decide to store it instead of spend it • Helps people convert purchasing power from present to future value by gaining interest

  8. The Kinds of Money • Commodity money – money that has an alternative use as a commodity, which has intrinsic value • Intrinsic value – item would have value if not used as money • Gold, silver, cigarettes (WW2), tulip bulbs (1600’s Europe), etc

  9. The Kinds of Money • Fiat – order/decree; government issued money • Paper dollars • Money that is intrinsically worthless • Legal tender - is money that a government has required to be accepted in settlement of debts

  10. Functions of Money • Liquidity – ease with which an asset can be converted into money as a medium of exchange • Liquid – checking account • Nonliquid - House

  11. Money in the U.S. Economy • Money supply/stock – quantity of money (paper and digital) in the economy • October 2010 – 9.61 Trillion in M1 • Currency – paper bills and coins in the hands of the public (800 Billion) • Demand deposits – balances in bank accounts, that can be accessed by writing a check • Checking accounts, travelers checks

  12. Money in the U.S. Economy • M1 – money that people can gain access to easily and immediately; checkable demand deposits. • Highly liquid – physical currency (minted coins and printed paper, demand deposits (checking accounts, traveler’s checks) • M2 – consists of M1 plus accounts that are not as liquid • Slightly less liquid - Savings accounts, certificates of deposits (CDs), money market, mutual funds, etc.

  13. Banking

  14. Banking

  15. The Federal Reserve • The Federal Reserve (“The Fed”) – the central bank of the U.S. • Created in 1913 by Congress, Federal Reserve Act • Central Bank – institution designed to oversee the banking system and regulate the quantity of money in the economy. • Monetary policy – “money”, directly affects the nation’s money supply (expansionary or contractionary) • Dollar is officially a “Federal Reserve Note”

  16. Structure of the Federal Reserve • Central Bank is in Washington D.C. • Run by a 7 member board of governors • Appointed by the president, confirmed by the Senate to 14 year terms • Board is led by the chairman • Current chairman – Ben Bernanke

  17. Structure of the Federal Reserve • Fed is comprised of Twelve Federal District Reserve Banks • One Federal Reserve Bank for each district • Each FRB monitors economic and banking conditions in its district

  18. The Fed’s Organization

  19. Federal Reserve Bank Atlanta – Atlanta District

  20. The Federal Open Market Committee • Structure and function: • Run by the 7 member board of governors (Washington D.C.) and 5 of the 12 regional bank presidents • All attend, only 5 vote, President of New York Fed always votes (financial capital of the world

  21. The Federal Open Market Committee • Power and Influence: • Increase or decrease the $ money $ supply • Open-market operation – buying and selling U.S. government bonds • Increase money supply – buy government bonds from the public (quantitative easing) • Decrease money supply – sell government bonds to the public

  22. Think of a dam… • A dam controls the flow of water downriver. • Releasing too much water would cause flooding. • Too little water would cause a drought.

  23. The Fed is like a dam... • The Fed is like a dam... • The river is the $ supply. • Too much $ causes inflation. • Too little $ can cause a recession. Money Supply Federal Reserve

  24. The Fed’s Tools of Monetary Control • Three monetary policy tools • Open-market operations • Reserve requirements • Interest Rates (Federal Funds Rate)

  25. Money Supply and Lending

  26. Money Supply and Lending

  27. Picture This

  28. Open-Market Operations • Open-Market Operations – the purchase and sale of U.S. government bonds by the Fed • Most often used tool of the Fed Increase the Money Supply • Buy bonds from the banks – credit the banks with money, increases the money supply • Easy money policy - expansionary monetary policy, goal is to expand the economy by lowering interest rates, increase inflation, encourages banks to lend money to consumers , discourage saving

  29. Open-Market Operations • Decrease money supply • Sell bonds to the bank, withdrawal money, decrease the money supply • Tight money policy – contractionary monetary policy, goal is to slow the economy by raising interest rates, contracting the economy, cause inflation to slow, discourage borrowing, encourage saving, restricts the money supply

  30. Open-Market Operations Expansionary Monetary Policy Contractionary Monetary Policy

  31. Fed Bond Buying • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Syk19wfGJRo • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nmTIjbTy3E • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdD1V2CgauY • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3_ymwSDcQQ

  32. Brainstorm - FED

  33. Fractional Reserve System • Fractional-reserve system – banks hold only a fraction of deposit reserves as opposed to 100% of deposits • Reserve – money deposit that banks have received but not loaned out

  34. Reserve Requirements • Reserve Requirements – regulations on the minimum amount of reserves that banks must hold against deposits • Banks must have a supply of reserves to protect against "runs" or "panics.“ (it’s a wonderful life video clip) Modern Bank Runs • 10% on M1 • Influences how much money banks can create from each deposit (reserves) • Increase in RRR, banks must hold more reserves, can loan out less • Decrease in RRR, banks must hold less reserves, can loan out more

  35. Money Creation • Required Reserve Ratio – set by the Fed, minimum amount that must be held by the bank • Established by the Federal Reserve, currently 1/10 or 10% of M1 • $1000 deposit, the bank would hold $100 in reserve and have $900 for lending • Required Reserves– the portion/percentage of a money deposit that must be held by the bank • May not be loaned out • Protect the bank against withdrawals on demand deposits • Excess Reserves – bank reserves in excess of the reserve requirement set by the Fed • They are reserves of cash more than the required amounts • May be loaned out or used for withdrawals on demand deposits • Loans - portion of deposit that is loaned out to borrowers • Money supply does not increase until banks actually lend money into circulation

  36. Banking Simulation

  37. Banking Simulation Total Deposits ___________ Total Reserves ___________ Excess Reserves ___________ Total Loans ___________ Remaining Excess Reserves _______

  38. Money Creation • T Account – simplified accounting statement that shows changes in the banks assets and liabilities • Reserves and loans are assets to bank • Deposits are liabilities to the bank

  39. Example Assets • Required Reserves: 5,000 • Excess Reserves: 30,000 • Loans: $15,000 Liabilities • Demand Deposits: $50,000 • What is the reserve requirement? • Assume that a withdrawal is made in the amount of $3,000 from the demand deposits. • How much will the reserves change? • Does the M1 money supply change? • As a result of the withdrawal, what is the new value of the excess reserves?

  40. Rules for Free Response • 1 pt of extra credit for each correct answer on next test • One copy for me (all names of group) • One copy for you (check your answers) • No phones during free response

  41. Money Multiplier • Money multiplier formula – helps determine the amount of money that the banking system generates with each dollar of reserves • MM = 1/RRR • 1/.10 = 10 • 1/.05 = 20 • Money Creation • Initial Cash Deposit (principal) x (MM) • The higher the RRR, the less banks have to loan out (vice versa) • 100(10) = 1000 • 100(20) = 2000

  42. Money Multiplier $2000 $200 $1800 $1800 $180 $1620 $162 $1620 $1458 $5420 $542 • Initial Cash Deposit (1 ÷ RRR) • 2000 X 10 = $20,000
