Friedman's Review, reprinted in Friedman, 1953). ) = 0 i = 1, 2, ... + 1 = 1. Goods 1, 2, ... , m are commodities; goods m + 1, m + 2, ... , n are fixed-income securities.

Interest on Money 39 If balance sheets of non-financial companies deteriorate, demand for intermediation might increase-leading to wider intermediary spreads. A Worked Example. The example develops Tobin's interesting analysis of effects of central bank deposit rate being passively maintained at a constant 'logarithmic distance' from intermediary deposit rates, while deepening our study of IS shocks. 3) Increased demand for intermediary liabilities leads to a wider intermediary spread. Since the preferred analysis entails at least two interest rates, substitution is active: effects of shocks are not importantly redistributed because intermediary liabilities offer competitive yields- so long as r is roughly parametric.
