Thanks for your help...

BTW, my grandfather and mother were top notch bookkeepers but my father was not the bookkeeping type.

Although I like technical details one of the main reasons I took up computers was to rid myself the drudgery of calculation.

That said this exercise in converting a macroeconomic circulation diagram to a spreadsheet has been an epoch in my effort to comprehend economics. I want to thank you for this chance to discuss the merits of tax increases or transfer payments in terms of the impact doing so may have on all the other agents and markets.

You mentioned that economists prefer to think in terms of exchange of goods and services rather than money or cash. When I Wanted to included inflation in the spreadsheet it seemed like a good idea to state the value of the link in terms of dollars in a side column to handle inflation and then reference the resulting value in the respective columns of the respective agent or market in the spreadsheet. This works great and can even be used to show the values of the links in various currencies.

Thanks again. I owe you.

Never is a long time

'Never is a long time' is the philosophical basis of much of theology. Someone once defined 'forever' as the time it would take for every possible interaction to occur at least once. Phil_burnstein (talk) 07:06, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
