In the mid 1800's, grain sellers in Chicago would deliver their grain to warehouses and receive a paper receipt that represented their claim on the grain in storage.  These receipts became so widely used that grain traders began to use them as money, and they would use the warehouse receipts to settle debts and as collateral to secure short-term loans.  Despite their widespread use as a form of currency, the warehouse receipts were not fiat money because:   A. Grain is a commodity, so the receipts were commodity money and not fiat money   B. The receipts were not legal tender formally recognized by a government
how might this change in interest rates and the supply of money affect the value of money? What happens in the circular-flow-diagram if borrowing money becomes expensive for businesses and consumers? What happens to employment?
Draw a graph and explain what is the overall impact of lower interest rates on the money market
