Money Supply

Monetary based model of money supply through the principle of money multiplier (m).

Money multiplier (m) is the ratio of the aggregate stock of money available in the economy (M) to the size of high powered money (H).
It shows that the aggregate stock of money supply available in the economy is the product of the value of money multiplier times the size of high powered money.
There are many money multiplier models developed by different economists at different time period like:
-          General model (IMF model)
-          Cagan model
-          Friedman model
-          Luckett model
-          Pesek and saving model
-          Jerry & Jordan model and so on…
Out of them Jerry & Jordan model is taken as the best model of money multiplier that has 7 equations in hand as given as:
M = C + DD + OD ---------------------- equation (1)
H = C + R + OD ------------------------- equation (2)
R = r + D --------------------------------- equation (3)
D = DD + TD ---------------------------- equation (4)
K = C/DD or C = K.DD ---------------- equation (5)
t = TD/DD or TD = t.DD ------------- equation (6)
d = OD/DD or OD = d.DD ----------- equation (7)
Where,
M = aggregate money supply in economy
C = currency held by people in their hands/pockets
DD = demand deposits of public with BFIs (Banking and Financial Institutions)
OD = other deposits of public with central bank (government, government enterprises, foreign offices)
H = high powered money
R = total cash reserves of BFIs
r = cash reserve ratio in weightage average
D = total deposits of public with BFIs
TD = time deposits of public with BFIs
K = currency ratio
t = time deposit ratio
d = other deposit ratio
Now,
Substituting the equation (6) into equation (4) we get,
D = DD + t.DD
Or, D = DD (1 + t) --------------------- equation (8)
Substituting the equation (8) into equation (9) we get,
R = r.DD (1 + t) ----------------------- equation (9)
Substituting the equation (5), (7) and (9) into equation (2) we get,
H = K.DD + r.DD (1 + t) + d.DD
Or, H = DD {K + r (1 + t) +d}
Therefore, DD = H/ {K + r (1 + t) +d} --------------------- equation (10)
Substituting the equation (5) and (7) into (1) we get,
M = K.DD + DD + d.DD
Or, M = DD {K + 1 + d} ----------------------- equation (11)
At last, substituting the equation (10) into equation (11) we get,

Where, 
which is known as the money multiplier.
Further, it shows that M is the positive function of both the value of m and H. hence, as the value of m or H increases, the value of M also increases and vice versa. Therefore the seen or visible variables in money multiplier models like K, d, r, t and H are known as the proximate determinants of money supply.
Here, the value of m is negatively affected by the value of K, t, d and r. Besides, the value of H, r, K, t and d are affected by many unseen factors which are known as ultimate determinants of money supply like:
-          H is affected by
o   NFAR (Net foreign asset reserve of the central bank)
o   NCG
o   CGEs
o   BFIs
o   CPS especially the employees of central bank
o   NML (Non-monetary liability)
o   OPAs used by the central bank
-          r is affected by
o   Availability of liquidity in financial market
o   Condition of money and capital markets
o   Effectiveness of monetary policy
-          K, t and d are affected by
o   Level of income and frequency of income received by people
o   Consumption and saving behaviors of people
o   Banking behavior of people
o   Development of banking system and expansion of banks
o   Inflation rate
o   Interest rate on deposits at banks

Characteristics of good tax system. (Canons of taxation)

Tax is an effective fiscal tool to influence the economy. It has also certain norms which have to be followed to make it more effective and popular. That state is a welfare state which imposes less amount of tax and collects more amount of revenue. So the tax should be effective. A good tax system should help to establish fair income distribution and socio-economic stability. According to Adam Smith, "A tax is a contribution from citizens for the support of the state." Adam Smith has given the most comprehensive and exhaustive concept of a good tax system which is known as the canon of taxation.  1 Canon of equity  A good tax should be based on the ability to pay principle of taxation, and it has to assure social justice to all taxpayers. In general, in this canon of equity, everybody must be treated equally for tax or according to capacity or ability they should pay the tax and unequal must be treated unequally....

Teej : The Most Awaited Festival for Nepalese Women

Written By: Jaya Silwal Red, green and yellow, these are the only colors that can be seen everywhere; mostly dominated by the color red. Teej is the name of a red insect that comes out on the surface during the rainy season. The festival is said to have got its name from that very insect. That must be the reason why the whole town seems to be painted red that day. Metaphorically, you can see all the women and girls of all age groups on the streets enjoying the festival that it's not less than painting the town red.
