Hence, he quaniy of pecial good exchanged i min(, * a q ) q( a), and he real value (expreed in erm of general good) of he porfolio ued a paymen i p( a, a ) = q( a).

The equilibrium i moneary if m > 0 for all, and in hi cae he money-markeclearing condiion i a m + 1 = M+ 1. The marke-clearing condiion imply { c, a 1, a m 1} 0 { x, 1, M1} 0, w 1/ U( x), and once { } 0 ha been found, { q } 0 { p } 0 {min(, * 1 q )} 0, where i he real value of he equilibrium porfolio ha each agen bring ino he decenralized marke of period +1. Therefore, given a money upply proce { M } 0, and leing L( 1 ) [ 1 ( 1)], a moneary equilibrium can be ummarized by a equence { } 0 - m + 1M + 1 U( x ) E [ L( ) U( x )( x )] U( x ) E [ L( ) U( x ) ] m m lim E [ U( x ) ] 0 0 lim E [ U( x ) M ]. 0 m 1 0 The la wo condiion are he ranveraliy condiion are he Euler equaion for equiy and money, repecively.

According o (8), real money balance and he value of money are decreaing in he nominal inere-rae arge (increaing in ). According o (7), under he propoed policy, he real price of equiy i increaing in he nominal inere-rae arge (decreaing in ). A 1, l ( ) 1, and herefore (according o Propoiion 1) he policy ( x ; ) approache an opimal policy under which he recurive moneary equilibrium decenralize he Pareo opimal allocaion. Noice ha ( x; 1 ) i he equilibrium equiy price ha would reul in a Luca (1978) economy wih no liquidiy need.

9 QR Concluion I have preened a imple verion of a prooypical earch-baed moneary model in which money coexi hi formulaion, money i no aumed o be he only ae ha mu, nor he only ae ha can, play he role of a medium of exchange: nohing in he environmen preven agen from uing equiy along wih money, or inead of money, a a mean of paymen.

Thi eem like a naural aring poin o udy he role of money and moneary policy in providing liquidiy o lubricae he mechanim of exchange in modern economie. In hi conex, I characerized a large family of opimal moneary policie. Every policy in hi family implemen Friedman precripion of zero nominal inere rae. Under an opimal policy, equiy price and reurn are independen of moneary conideraion. I have alo udied a cla of moneary policie ha arge a conan bu nonzero nominal inere rae. For hi perurbaion of he family of opimal policie, I found ha he model ariculae he idea ha, o he exen ranacion, i real rae of reurn will include a liquidiy reurn ha depend on moneary conideraion. A a reul of hi liquidiy channel, perien deviaion from he opimal moneary policy will caue he real price of ae ha can be ued o relax borrowing or oher rading conrain o exhibi perien deviaion from heir fundamenal value.
