Abstract

This thesis tests whether a simple income-expenditure model is a better predictor of induced expenditure and thus income than a simple quantity theory model. A spectral analysis was performed using alternative definitions of money, income and expenditure. From the results of cross spectral analysis, it was concluded that the money supply is the better predictor of short run (8 months - 3 years) fluctuations in consumption and thus in income.
