In case the question requires us to explain the speculative demand for money in a country.

Concept Introduction:

Speculative demand: Speculative demand is the demand for liquid cash to take advantage of the share market. It depends on the future changes in the interest rate or bond prices. According to Keynes, the speculative demand for money is inversely related to the rate of interest. The higher the rate of interest, the lower the speculative demand for money. And lower the rate of interest, the higher the speculative demand for money. According to Keynes, the speculative demand for money is directly related to the bond price. If bond prices are expected to rise, people will buy bonds and sell after it has increased to have a capital gain. Contrary to this, if bond prices are likely to fall in future, people will sell bonds to evade capital loss. Under such circumstances, cash is more preferred than bond.

Liquidity: Liquidity is a term used to describe how quickly an asset can be converted into cash. If you keep the money in some other form of asset, or in bank, you will actually have a separation with the liquid form. Liquidity is the easiness of holding cash form of money rather than any other form. Interest rate is considered as the compensation for separation with the liquidity form of money.

HW Ch5 Calculate the daily total revenue when the market price is $180, $160, $140, $120, $100, $80, $60, and $40 per bippitybop. Then, use the green point (triangle symbol) to plot the daily total revenue against quantity corresponding to these market prices on the following graph. 2 @ 3840 3520 3200+ 2880 2560+ 2240 TOTAL REVENUE (Dollars) 1920 1600 1280 960 + 640+ 0 0 8 16 24 32 40 48 56 64 72 80 QUANTITY (Bippitybops per day) Total Revenue ? According to the midpoints formula, the price elasticity of demand between points A and B on the initial graph is approximately . Suppose the price of bippitybops is currently $60 per bippitybop, shown as point A on the initial graph. Because the price elasticity of demand between points A and B is , a $20-per-bippitybop decrease in price will lead to MacBook Air in total revenue per day.

China is a leader in international trade, has one of the highest GDPs, and currently holds the largest foreign exchange reserve in the world. Is it fair for China to fix its currency by undervaluing it on the market? How does keeping its currency undervalued give it a favorable position in international trade? What about from the viewpoints of international companies and consumers?
