Comparative Use Of Monetary Policy Tools In African Economies With Particular Reference To Nigeria, Zimbabwe And Kenya, Abiola R. Masha

Thus, there have been, in the last several years, a number of studies on the financial systems of the three economies.

Instability Of Government Revenue And Expenditure In Less Developed Countries, David Lim

Support & Other Units (THEi)

The governments of most less developed countries (LDCs) depend basically on their tax and non-tax revenues to finance their expenditure programmes. Unless countervailing action is taken, instability in government revenue will result in instability in government expenditure. The latter can add considerably to the complexity of fiscal management, which may then render ineffective development planning.1 It can also reduce business confidence and lead to the precautionary discounting of prospective investment returns and so a lowering of the investment level. This note does not attempt to verify the claim that expenditure instability has adverse effects on economic growth. Its aim is …

Monetary Disequilibrium, Black Market Exchange Rate, And The Balance Of Payments (The Case Of Iran), Reza Kalantar

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The main purpose of this study is to analyze theoretically and empirically the short- run dynamics of Iranian reserve flows, black market exchange rate, and domestic rate of inflation. To achieve this purpose, a monetary approach was adopted to measure the simultaneous effect of an ex ante excess flow supply of money on the three variables.

This study also attempts to test the hypothesis that in the long run growth in output and price level is associated with a balance of payments surplus, while growth in the domestically - determined portion of the money stock tends to be associated with …

A theoretical conclusion is reached as to whether the free market or 1 and-use controls allocate land resources more efficiently. An empirical model is formulated to explain changes in the quantity of agricultural land as a function of several …

Worker Ownership As A Means Of Reducing Regional Unemployment And Its Application To Steel Plant Shutdowns, Peter Berg

Honors Projects

In the 1950s, the American steel industry dominated the world in steel production. It was a strong and thriving sector of our national economy. Throughout the 1970s, however, the steel industry has been in sharp decline. Foreign competition, high labor costs, periodic recessions, and lack of modernization are some of the factors that have contributed to the industry's inability to produce steel in a competitive market. These developments in the steel industry have affected not only our national economy but also the lives of one million steelworkers. The ugly economic and social effects of. unemployment have caused hardship for many …
