To determine

In case the question requires us to explain the transaction demand for money in a developing country.

Concept Introduction:

Transaction Demand: Individuals have day to day expenses. There exists a gap between money received and money demanded. Individuals receive payments by the end of the month but needs to pay for various things every day. So they need ‘active balance’ to finance these every day expenses. This is known as transaction demand for money or need- based money. The amount of liquidity preferred depends on the level of income, people with higher incomes, requires more liquid money for increased spending. Transaction demand for money is an increasing function of income level.

Liquidity: Liquidity is a term used to describe how quickly an asset can be converted into cash. If you keep the money in some other form of asset, or in bank, you will actually have a separation with the liquid form. Liquidity is the easiness of holding cash form of money rather than any other form. Interest rate is considered as the compensation for separation with the liquidity form of money.
