Money and Its Purchasing Power
This completes the study of money and of the effects of changes in monetary relations on the economic system. Like all commodities, money has its own supply and demand and price: purchasing power. Everyone deals in money.
The Supply of Money
How are money prices determined? The stock of the money commodity responds to demand and supply of the consumers and their preferences just as with any other good.
Prices and Consumption
Rothbard's approach to money prices is not as a barter exchange system. Instead, he made money prices the common denominator for all exchange ratios. You can now engage in economic calculation.
