What are the determinates of velocity

A

Efficiency of payment system

Frequency of payments

20
Q

They increase velocity because people do not need to carry as much M1 with a credit card

They decrease velocity bc they encourage people to have more M1
Money in their checking accounts

Increase in interest rates means an increase in velocity

Decrease in interest rates decrease velocity

24
Q
