Enough Commodity Money and the Selection of a Unique Competitive Equilibrium

Author

Abstract

Suppose that we reformulate the exchange economy as a strategic market game. As all purchases are paid for in cash it is possible to attach precise meaning to what is meant by enough money. As the game is a single simultaneous bid and offered at m trading posts and m prices are all simultaneously determined, in essence the trading technology is completely specified.
