U.S. Economy Introduction Basic Conditions and Resources Small Business and Corporation Foreign Trade Monetary and Fiscal Policy The Stock Market Labor Agriculture E-Commerce The role of government in the American economy extends far beyond its activities as a regulator of specific industries. The government also manages the overall pace of economic activity, seeking to maintain high levels of employment and stable prices. It has two main tools for achieving these objectives: fiscal policy, through which it determines the appropriate level of taxes and spending; and monetary policy, through which it manages the supply of money. By the late 1990s, the nation was experiencing a gratifying combination of strong growth, low unemployment, and slow inflation. On the positive side, real disposable personal income rose nearly 6 percent in 2002, the fastest increase in many years. Strong productivity growth partially offset the effects of stagnant employment in restricting the growth of household income, and the phase-in of additional tax reductions from the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 boosted household purchasing power appreciably. In 2002, the United States economy extended the upturn in activity that began in late 2001. Economic conditions improved through the first part of 2002. Household spending on both personal consumption items and housing remained solid, businesses curtailed their inventory liquidation and began to increase their outlays for some types of capital equipment, and private employment started to edge higher.

Sitemap Contact us Links [Skip to Navigation] Monetary policy in `Interesting Times' Address by Donald T Brash Governor Reserve Bank of New Zealand to the managers of small and medium-sized businesses in Whangarei 21 November 2001 Ladies and Gentlemen About seven or eight years ago, I was visited by a share-broker who told me what a great job the Reserve Bank had done in explaining its actions to the banks and the big corporates. I felt good, until he said "But frankly, you have done a lousy job communicating with the small and middle-sized businesses in New Zealand." True, I protested, but I can't even get a good mailing list to cover the tens of thousands of smaller businesses. "Fair enough", he replied, "but every small business has a bank account. Put it on the banks to invite their small business clients to meetings which you host, and to which you speak." And from that conversation grew the idea of this meeting. We had meetings of this kind for the first time in 1995. We repeated the idea again in 1998. And now we are doing it for the third time this year. In part, we want to use this meeting to tell you how we see the world. And in part, we want to learn, from your questions and comments when I have finished, how you see the world. We are acutely aware that the health and vitality of the New Zealand economy depends to a huge degree on the health and vitality of the small and middle-sized businesses represented in this room.

By MARK BERNKOPF The Two Revolutions Is 1996 the Year of Electronic Money? Electronic Money: Neither New nor Exotic ... Internet Resources on Electronic Cash and Monetary Policy New payments technologies are heralding what appears to the greatest union of the disciplines of science and money since Sir Isaac Newton, Master of the Mint, unwittingly put Great Britain on the gold standard, back in 1720. Web sites about digital cash and other electronic payment systems have been proliferating wildly. Moreover, every major newspaper, business magazine, and evening television news broadcast seems to have featured at least one story about "electronic money" or "digital cash." There are now about at least four paperback books on electronic cash, each of similar thickness, appearance, and price, for sale in North American bookstores. No doubt there are more such books on the way. To top it all off, Nicholas Negroponte has called 1996 "the year of electronic money." Professor Negroponte and other analysts talk about a revolution transferring power from governments and central banks to investors, consumers, and entrepreneurs. Not, perhaps, for everyone. Take, for example, the country where Professor Negroponte made his declaration - France. The French experience with electronic commerce via smart cards and minitels dates to the 1980s - ancient history to most Internet users. Moreover, Japan and much of Western Europe have long used prepaid telephone cards.

In the same sense, there is a trade-off in society between using resources to consume products today and investing those resources to produce capital goods that will help create more and better products tomorrow. But unlike the fly-fishing scenario, those who forego consumption for saving are not necessarily those who produce capital goods by investing. In a free market economy, savers and investors are brought together in financial, or capital, markets. When you put your savings in a bank account or mutual fund, for example, a lot of that money is loaned to businesses to finance the purchase or production of capital goods such as plants and machinery and new equipment. But when you save money, it isn't just for a rainy day; it's to earn more money in the form of interest. The interest you earn when you save comes from the cost that businesses pay when they borrow to invest in capital goods.

The quantity and quality of labor that individuals supply is an important factor in determining the economy's level of production and rate of growth. People with jobs, people looking for jobs and businesses seeking employees make up what is known as the labor market. The interaction between people supplying labor services and businesses demanding workers' services is what determines the wages and salaries paid to employees and the total number of people employed.

Banks and other financial institutions compete for households’ savings deposits by paying interest to the savers. Then banks lend those funds out to borrowers at a higher rate of interest than they pay to savers. The difference between the interest rates charged to borrowers and paid to savers is the main way that banks earn profits.

THE FED'S ROLE MONITORING THE US ECONOMY The FOMC, monetary policy and inflation The Federal Reserve (or the Fed) is charged with maintaining a careful watch over the US economy and deciding on the monetary policy that will help our economy grow at a healthy rate. Generally, monetary policy refers to the actions taken by a central bank, like the Federal Reserve, to influence a country's money supply or interest rates. At the Fed, the responsibility for making monetary policy lies with the Federal Open Market Committee (the FOMC), one of the three divisions of the Federal Reserve System. The goal of the FOMC is to create an economic environment that stimulates economic growth, full employment and stable prices. An important factor underlying this policy is maintaining a low rate of inflation . Usually calculated as a percentage, inflation is a sustained increase in prices over a period of time. Although prices will rise, a high rate of inflation has a negative impact on the economy. So the Fed strives to keep both the economy growing and the inflation rate low. When inflation is high

With annual revenue of $12 million, Triplex, which Katz's father founded in 1949 and Katz has run since 1975, has had a pretty good run. But over the past decade, several Chinese firms have begun making the same part, selling it for $19 and sometimes even less. Their secret? A Shanghai factory worker earns $207 a month, while most Triplex employees make that in two days or less. "You just can't compete with that," says Katz, who laid off 12 workers last month. As China rises as an economic power, stories like Katz's are becoming all too familiar. In addition to its rock-bottom labor costs, critics blame China's policy of keeping its currency artificially low to boost Chinese exports. With an election year on the horizon and the economy continuing to shed jobsAugust was the 37th straight month of job losseslast week President Bush created a manufacturing czar position at the Commerce Department. More important, he dispatched Treasury Secretary John Snow to Beijing to urge Chinese officials to ease up on manipulating the yuan. It's a delicate task, as the administration must balance the interests of U.S. businesses and workers with a growing budget deficit and its commitment to free trade. That's not to mention foreign-policy concerns such as North Korean nuclear weapons, an issue on which China's help is essential.

The federal government's chief source of funds to cover its expenses is the income tax on individuals, which in 1999 brought in about 48 percent of total federal revenues. Payroll taxes, which finance the Social Security and Medicare programs, have become increasingly important as those programs have grown. In 1998, payroll taxes accounted for one-third of all federal revenues; employers and workers each had to pay an amount equal to 7.65 percent of their wages up to $68,400 a year. The federal government raises another 10 percent of its revenue from a tax on corporate profits, while miscellaneous other taxes account for the remainder of its income.
