Q & A

What is the concept of money demand as explained in the script?

Money demand refers to the desire of people to hold money for various purposes, such as transactions, precautionary savings, or speculation. It represents the amount of money people wish to hold to meet their needs within a specific period.

What is the formula for the quantity theory of money mentioned in the script?

The formula for the quantity theory of money, as explained by Irving Fisher, is: M * V = P * T, where M is the money supply, V is the velocity of money, P is the price level, and T is the volume of transactions.

How does the theory of money demand relate to inflation?

The theory of money demand is connected to inflation because the amount of money in circulation affects the general price level. If the demand for money increases or decreases, it impacts inflationary pressures, as more money circulating without an equivalent increase in goods and services can lead to inflation.

What are the three motives for holding money according to John Maynard Keynes?

Keynes identified three motives for holding money: (1) The transactions motive, where money is held for day-to-day consumption; (2) The precautionary motive, where money is saved for unforeseen future expenses; and (3) The speculative motive, where money is used for investments in financial assets like stocks or bonds.

What are the components of money supply in the context of Indonesia's monetary system?

In Indonesia, the money supply is divided into two categories: M1 (narrow money), which includes cash held by the public and demand deposits, and M2 (broad money), which includes M1 plus quasi-money, such as savings accounts, time deposits, and foreign currency deposits.

Why does the demand for money increase around the time of Eid, as mentioned in the script?

The demand for money increases around Eid because of the heightened need for cash to cover various expenses, such as giving bonuses (THR), traveling, purchasing new clothes, and buying food. This seasonal demand requires more money to facilitate transactions.

How does the increase in money supply relate to the theory of money supply?

The increase in money supply is managed by central authorities like Bank Indonesia. The supply of money is regulated to ensure enough currency is available to meet the demand while avoiding excessive inflation. The script explains that the money supply must balance the amount of money circulating with the volume of goods and services in the economy.

What is the purpose of the 'quasi-money' category in the money supply?

Quasi-money includes deposits that are not as liquid as cash but can still be converted into money, such as savings accounts and time deposits. It is included in the broader money supply (M2) to account for the money that can be accessed relatively easily but isn't immediately spendable.

How is the quantity of money circulating in the economy determined according to Fisher's theory?

According to Fisher's theory, the quantity of money circulating in the economy is determined by the formula M * V = P * T. The total money supply (M) multiplied by the velocity of money (V) equals the price level (P) times the volume of transactions (T). This equation shows the relationship between money circulation and economic activity.

What is the impact of inflation on the demand for money?

Inflation decreases the real value of money, meaning people need more money to buy the same amount of goods and services. As prices rise, the demand for money increases to meet the higher costs, but this can also lead to reduced purchasing power if the supply of money doesn't increase proportionally.
