Evolution of Money : Evolution of Money Definition of money: Anything that is widely used for making payments and accounting A current medium of exchange in the form of coins and banknotes; coins and banknotes collectively. Functions of money: Unit of account Method of payment Medium of exchange Measure of value Store of value

Money must be: Generally acceptable Stable in value Durable Difficult to imitate Portable Divisible into small units

Time Value of Money : Time Value of Money The time value of money is the value of money figuring in a given amount of interest earned over a given amount of time. The time value of money is the central concept in finance theory. For example, Rupess 100 of today's money invested for one year and earning 5% interest will be worth Rs.105 after one year. Therefore, Rs100 paid now or Rs.105 paid exactly one year from now both have the same value to the recipient who assumes 5% interest; using time value of money terminology, Rs.100 invested for one year at 5% interest has a future value of Rs.105 All of the standard calculations for time value of money derive from the most basic algebraic expression for the present value of a future sum, "discounted" to the present by an amount equal to the time value of money. For example, a sum of FV to be received in one year is discounted (at the rate of interest r) to give a sum of PV at present: PV = FV − r·PV = FV/(1+r).

Multiplier effect with Money : Multiplier effect with Money In monetary economics, a money multiplier is one of various closely related ratios of commercial bank money to central bank money under a fractional-reserve banking system. Most often, it measures the maximum amount of commercial bank money that can be created by a given unit of central bank money. That is, in a fractional-reserve banking system, the total amount of loans that commercial banks are allowed to extend (the commercial bank money that they can legally create) is a multiple of reserves; this multiple is the reciprocal of the reserve ratio, and it is an economic multiplier. If banks lend out close to the maximum allowed by their reserves, then the inequality becomes an approximate equality, and commercial bank money is central bank money times the multiplier. If banks instead lend less than the maximum, accumulating excess reserves, then commercial bank money will be less than central bank money times the theoretical multiplier. Where The money multiplier, m , is the inverse of the reserve requirement, RR

Evolution of Banking : Evolution of Banking Indigenous bankers are found in various forms such as pawn brokers, nidhis, bishis, and chit funds In 1809, the first banking institution in India was the Bank of Bengal The Imperial Bank of India was renamed as State Bank of India in 1955
