	Fiat money - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Fiat money or fiat currency, is money that is current or legal tender as satisfaction for money debts by government fiat, that is by law.
		The word fiat when considered in the context of "fiat money" is generally considered to stem from the Latin for "let it be", although there is an alternative school of thought that believes the word to be a corruption of the past tense of the latin fidere which means "to trust".
		This money combined aspects of fiat currency, in that there was limited convertibility, fractional reserve banking and a unit of account set by the government, with commodity based money, in that there were limits to the amount of money that could be put into circulation.

		Money's board of directors consisted of Jean, Mary and Beth, Marvin's three adult daughters, who were also the corporate officers, and, with Marvin, authorized signatories on the corporate bank account.
		Makeover moved to dismiss Money's counterclaim on the grounds that it was barred by the applicable statute of limitations.
		Because Money kept no records and observed no formalities; because Marvin so dominated Money and ``made all the decisions concerning the investment''; and because Marvin liquidated the account knowing the commissions were due, the court will likely pierce the corporate veil and hold Marvin personally liable.

	MONEY LAUNDERING (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		The movement of money derived by organized crime groups from their criminal activities to a semi-legal business venture, reinvesting it further to a legitimate business until the trace of its criminally derived origin faded and making the same proceeds available again for use by the organized crime groups.
		When the money has been moved through the international financial system and has sufficiently made their origins and traces extremely difficult, if not impossible to identify, it is time to move them to country of origin to be used and enjoyed again by the organized crime groups.

		Exchange involving the use of money is a great improvement over barter, since it permits elaborate specialization and provides generalized purchasing power that the participants in the exchange may use in the future.
		Whether an article is to be regarded as money does not, however, depend on its value as a commodity, except where intrinsic worth is necessary to make it generally acceptable in exchange; the relation between the face value of an object used as money and its commodity value has actually become increasingly remote (see coin).
		While the advocates of mercantilism tended to identify money with wealth, the classical economists, e.g., John Stuart Mill, usually considered money as a veil obscuring real economic phenomena.

	TIME AND MONEY
		Recognizing money as the loose joint in the context of a capital-using economy focuses attention on the looseness between the supply of an assortment of capital goods and the subsequent demand for the corresponding consumer goods.
		On money: "there is no unique market for money, and its 'price' emerges as a result of economic agents each setting the price of a particular good he is supplying in terms of money" (1975, p.7).
		To recognize time and money as the universals of macroeconomic theorizing is to define the domain of macroeconomics as the interaction of the "market for time" and the "market for money." This conception of macroeconomics, which has merit in its own right, allows for a fruitful comparison of mainstream views.

	3.Money
		While some economists also recognise the influence of money on some nominal measures, notably the rate of inflation, the importance of this is seen in the context by which variations in inflation (caused by variations in the rate of growth of the money supply) destabilise the economy and knock it from its equilibrium growth path.
		Friedmans restatement was that money demand was a function of the current price level, the rates of return on bonds and equities, the rate of inflation and the stock of wealth (calculated from permanent income).Thus, money demand (and also velocity) is a stable function of these variables.
		The instability of money demand and the unpredictability of the velocity of money in the early 1980s, and the abandonment of the monetarist experiment in the UK and US in the 1980s were the basis of the criticisms of monetarism.

		Although many people (and many economists) have confused the terms "neutrality" and "dichotomy", there is a difference: neutrality only claims money is a "veil" in the long-run, whereas dichotomy asserts that money is a "veil" both in the long-run and the short-run.
		These issues have complicated the old idea of money as a "veil" because now it seems that money has indeed some "usefulness" in and of itself.
		This issue, lurching between seeing money being only a "veil" and then going on to claim it is nonetheless "desirable" has led to many twists and turns in the history of theories of money.

	Introduction (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Yet, in the first five chapters of this text, we have tried quite hard to avoid talking about money or monetary dimensions, saying that money is a veil, and that's true too -- for many purposes, money is a veil.
		But it is also important for economics to understand money and the monetary system, if only to be better able to look under the veil.
		However, in a society of the kind that Adam Smith envisioned -- that is, a society like the one in which we live, with a very extended division of labor -- it is hard to imagine living without a monetary system.

		The approximate real-world money multiplier in the economy is 1/(r +c) where r = the percentage of deposits banks hold in reserve and c is the ratio of money people hold in cash to the money they hold as deposits.
		V, the velocity of money, is the number of times per year, on average, a dollar goes around to generate a dollar's worth of income.
		The money multiplier is influenced by both the amount of cash people hold as well as the lending process at the bank.

		Thus, David Hume's adamant stress upon the idea of money as a "veil" must be regarded in the light of his attempt to assail Mercantilism in general.
		The "Real Bills" theory essentially argued that the supply of money is not "exogenous" (as Hume thought) but rather "endogenous": banks "create" money according to the needs of trade.
		Thus, in a sense, Smith did not really think increased supplies of money led to higher prices because his Real Bills doctrine would claim that supply of money could not be increased exogenously to begin with.

	Origin of the Idea
		Earlier economists saw money as a veil that must be pulled aside to see the real economy.
		Fisher used the quantity theory of money and equation of exchange to argue that "one of the normal effects of an increase in the quantity of money is an exactly proportional increase in the general level of prices."
		No reason has been, or, so far as apparent, can be assigned, to show why the velocity of circulation of money, or deposits, should be different, when the quantity of money, or deposits, is great, from what it is when the quantity is small.

	Scottish Approaches to Money
		Naturally, Hume's ideas have older roots: the direct "quantity theory" relationship between money and prices as we noted, was introduced by Jean Bodin and the theory itself was due to John Locke.
		However, the bulk of the Mercantilists equated money with wealth.
		Secondly, as noted, Smith was also the developer of the "Real Bills" doctrine of money, which makes his theory rather distinct from both Hume and the Classical economists and closer to the older pre-classical theories of Davanzati, John Law and Sir James Steuart.

		If they can't issue debt and they can't reduce the deficit, the only alternative left is to print money: in short, they pay their bills with money, which is easy enough to print.
		While the near proximate cause of high inflation is always monetary as inflation is associated with high rates of growth of money, the true structual cause of persistent high inflation is a fiscal deficit that is not eliminated with cuts in spending and/or increases in (non-seigniorage) taxes.

		Economists long considered money illusion to be largely irrelevant.
		If we represent pay-offs in nominal terms, choices converge to the Pareto inefficient equilibrium; however, if we lift the veil of money by representing pay-offs in real terms, the Pareto efficient equilibrium is selected.
		We also show that strategic uncertainty about the other players’ behaviour is key for the equilibrium selection effects of money illusion: even though money illusion vanishes over time if subjects are given learning opportunities in the context of an individual optimization problem, powerful and persistent effects of money illusion are found when strategic uncertainty prevails.
