|
| |
|

| | The aggregate supply curve is moved to the right. |
|
| |
|
| Cash itself is the most liquid of assets.
| |
|
| |
|
| After that, the next most liquid asset is often high quality central government debt, for example gilts.
| | Supply side policy tends to be associated with monetarism. |
| | |
| | |
| 2. ''Markets.''

| |
| * For non-financial organisations, simple measures of liquidity include the ''current ratio'' and the ''quick ratio''.
