Money (Paper Currency & coins):

Everyone needs money in this world. Standard of living is collateral to the quantity of money you have in your hand. We need this printed paper not to have our pockets full of paper , but what we do is converting our needs ,desires, dreams and wishes to reality. You all know the importance and power of this piece of paper.

In this article I am going to tell you basic concept and definitions of money. Now we will look at the basis definitions which will clear the concept regarding money. Early scientists gave many definitions, we look at them one by one;

Robertson defined money,” Anything which is accepted in payments for goods and services & in discharge of other kind of obligations”.

In the words of Crowther,” The only essential required is general acceptability, money need not itself be valuable. It must be relativity scarce, but provided precautions are taken to keep it relatively scarce”.

“money is what money does” Walzker.

The definitions provided by Robertson and Crowther are best defining definitions and clear the concept of money that we use in our daily life

Various Debates definition of money



In the last few years there has been a issue that what is money and what is not money. There are four main schools of thought on the definition of money and money supply.

1. Conventional Approach:- The economists having this view define money only on the basis of  its function as a medium of exchange. They include in the term ‘money’ currency and demand deposites in the banks. As they think that medium of exchange is only primary function, they include only currency and demand deposits because they are perfectly liquid and are generally accepted as a medium of exchage. Hence,
  Money Stock= Currency + Demand deposits. And this is called ‘M’

Under this approach all other assets like time deposits, post office savings, bank savings etc are excluded from the definition of money.

2. Chicago Approach::- Professor Milton Freidman is leader of this school of thought. This school says that money is not only a medium of exchange but it is store of value as well. They extends money and includes other assets like time deposits and saving deposits in the banks.Hence,
Money stock= M + time deposits+ saving deposits. And this is M2

3. Gurley and Shaw Approach:- His school of thought is led by Gurley and Shaw. They emphasize the implication of velocity of circulation of money and the existence of substantial volume of liquid assets closely substitutable for money like short-term government securities, liabilities of non-banking financial institutions, time deposits in banks, post office and saving deposits etc. thus definition of money is to be broadened and includes all other assets mentioned above. 

4. Credit Approach:- This group wants to replace concept of money by general liquidity situation of the economy. They say that credit can be substituted for money without any limit. They reject all three approaches mentioned above and substitute the general liquidity position of the economy

What is important to check before going on a drive?

Drive is always very important and enjoyable but some times the drive become a bad memory and cruel experience because of only our ignorance and fault.
We think that the drive is all about only to drive the car on the road but the driving is more then that. There are some important things to check. Before seating in the car go to your car’s trunk. Check out these thinge

  • Spare Wheel with Air Pressure.
  •  Hydraulic Jack.
  • Wheel Wrench.

After checking these stuff now come to your car’s front bonnet open it and check out some important things. Most important is to check the level of engine coolant in the radiator and in its spear tank.  This is important because the car engine cannot work without coolant and will burn out if there is no sufficient Coolant in the radiator.
After that now check out the engine oil by dragging out the oil gauge form the engine and check the level is on the right point of the gauge or not if it is ok then put it back if not then put some oil and check again .After completing the oil check now check the wind shower tank if the level of water in it is low then fill it up with water to the right level. The battery of your car also want some attention, check the level of acid in your car’s battery by opening the caps one by one, if the level is low in some of the cell then fill them up by battery acid, if the battery acid is not available don’t worry, use the fresh water. You can also check the level of break fluid.
Do you think that the car is now ready for ride, No . Now sit in your car put the key in the ignition switch turn the it on ,There are some caution lights in your car’s dashboard . The light of  Power Generator, Engine Oil, Hand Break, Engine check , and some other lights but important are mentioned above. Now Turn the Key to the Ignition point (start). The Engine will start now check these lights all the lights must turn off if the functions are proper, if any of these lights not turned of then we have to check the problem. Let suppose the break light is on check out the hand break if it is tight then release the break the light will turned of, if not then there is a problem with your car’s breaks. The break fluid is low, if the fluid is on the right level then the pads of the breaks are burned out, go to your service shop by driving slowly and get the treatment for the breaks.

Importance of Cash flows in evaluation of Working Capital Management:



Cash flow analysis is a helpful tool in evaluating the effectiveness with which the management has controlled the working capital. If the Chas flows from operating activities are greater than or substantially equal to the profit for the period, it may be an indication that the working capital has been managed effectively and efficiently. If the cash flows are not equal it means that working capital management needs improvement.
          For example, net profit for the period is $10 million and cash flows from operating activities are $2 million. This is an indication of poor management of working capital. The reason of shortfall may be the tying up in inventories and collection efforts of debts have been deteriorated. If same trend continues unchecked the future profits will be adversely decline. Also if the cash flows from operating activities are not adequate and the shareholders are not contributing with more funds, the entity will have to depend on the borrowings to meet its current obligations. In such a situation it is unlikely that the entity can continue to be solvent in the long run.
