Group 3: DJ, Kevin, Sarah
• Explain (in extreme detail) MV=PQ.
The Equation of Exchange
MV = PQ
M = supply of money
V = velocity of money (average number of times per year a dollar is
spent on final goods and services)
P = price level
Q = physical volume of all goods and services produced (real GDP
MV = PQ
MV represents total amount spend by purchasers of output
PQ represents total amount received by sellers of that output
Both MV and PQ = nation’s nominal GDP
The dollar value of total spending has to equal the dollar value of
total output
Stable Velocity
GDP/M defines V
V in the equation of exchange is relatively stable
Stable means factors altering velocity (such as how frequently people are paid)
change gradually and predictably and can be readily anticipated.
Today velocity is higher than it was several decades ago
Velocity does not change in response to changes in the money supply
Changes in M
If the supply of money grows faster than the rate of real output (changes in
Q), then there will be inflation in the economy
A change in M causes a proportionate change in nominal BDP
Thus, changes in the money supply allegedly have a predictable effect on
nominal GDP (PxQ)
An increase in M increases P or Q or some combination of both and a
decrease in M has the opposite effect.
