Slide Content

PART I
Philippine Money

Concept of Money

Our monetary system developed to meet the changing needs of
the economy.
Primitive economies consisted largely of self-sufficient units or
groups that lived by means of hunting, fishing, and simple
agriculture.
There was a need to exchange goods and services.

 As economies became more developed and some men
specialized, to a degree at least, the process of exchange of goods
for goods, or BARTER as it is known, tables of relative values were
developed from past experiences.

“ She makes a lot of
money…”
He has a lot of
money…”

Money

as anything authorized by law.
generally accepted as medium of exchange.
one form in which we keep our wealth.
As defined by Farlex Dictionary, Money is a Currency and coin that
are guaranteed as legal tender by the government.

Functions of
Money

 As a Medium of Exchange
•Money facilitates buying and selling transactions. Its is basically the
tool used to pay or settle obligations.
•By being “generally acceptable for payment for goods and services’’,
it serves as physical means of conducting a business transactions.

 As a Medium of Exchange
•The use of money allows purchases and sales to be possible. The
introduction of money in turn reduces the time spent for a
transaction.
•As a transaction medium, it is a means of repaying debts, in the
exchange of assets, such as shares of common stock.

 As a Medium of Exchange
By definition, a Medium of Exchange is
anything that is used to determine value
during the exchange of goods and services.
Money allows us to use systems of trade
beyond the Barter System.
Bartering is directly trading one good or
service for another.
Your money acts as a common ground
for determining value.

 Unit of Account of Standard Value
•Money serves as a yardstick for measuring prices and values for
comparing items.
•In principle, any commodity can serve as a unit of account.
•We measure the values of items we want to acquire in terms of one
common denominator, our money value.

 Unit of Account of Standard Value
•Money can be used as a means to compare
the values of goods and services.
•You can use the monetary value assigned
to a specific good or service to compare it
to one offered by a different provider.
•Money allows us to compare similar offers
for goods and services to determine the
best value

 Store of Value
•Money is a reservoir of future purchasing power.
•It is both temporary and a permanent store of
purchasing power.
•A person who saves portion of his income is
storing purchasing power of his money
temporarily.
•A person who holds more money to carry our a
transaction in stocks, bonds, real estate or other
forms is storing purchasing power of money.

 Store of Value
•Money value can be stored in two forms: SAVINGS and
INVESTMENT.
•Income derived from savings is interest and from
investment is profit.
•If kept for future use, in the form of savings or
investment, it earn income.
•Financial assets serve as a means of storing
wealth. This includes various short-term
securities, bank deposits, stocks and the like
serving as vehicles for storing wealth over
time.

 Standard of Deferred Payment
•Money is used as a medium for fulfilling obligations of debtors to
creditors on maturity.
•It serves to measure the extent of obligations by debtors and claims
by creditors.
•Money as a standard of deferred payments means that promises to
pay at specified future time, whether verbal or written, is expressed in
money value.

Characteristics
of Good Money

Section 53 of the New Central Bank Act
Characteristics of the Currency “The Monetary Board,
with the approval of the President of the Philippines, shall prescribe
denominations, dimensions, designs, inscriptions and other
characteristics of notes issued by the Bangko Sentral: Provided,
however, that …..

“……said notes shall state that they are liabilities of the Bangko
Sentral and are fully guaranteed by the Government of the Republic
of the Philippines. Said notes shall bear the signatures, in facsimile,
of the President of the Philippines and of the Governor of the
Bangko Sentral”.

“Similarly, the Monetary Board, with the approval of the President
of the Philippines, shall prescribe the weight, fineness, designs,
denominations and other characteristics of the coins issued by the
Bangko Sentral. In the minting of coins, the Monetary Board shall
give full consideration to the availability of suitable metals and to
their relative prices and cost of minting.”

General Acceptability
•This is the ready acceptance of people in a country for money.
Money must be acceptable as a tool for settlement of obligations
between creditors and debtors, or between buyers and sellers.

Section 52 of the New Central Bank Act
Legal Tender Power states that “All notes and coins issued by
the Bangko Sentral shall be fully guaranteed by the Government of
the Republic of the Philippines and shall be legal tender in the
Philippines for all debts, both public and private: Provided, however,
That, unless fixed by the Monetary Board,

“........Coins shall be legal tender in amounts not exceeding Fifty
Pesos (Php50.00) for denominations of Twenty-five centavos and
above, and in amounts not exceeding Twenty-pesos (Php 20.00) for
denominations of Ten centavos or less.

 Durability
•A characteristic where money must be able to bear normal wear
and tear when use in any transaction. It must be made of materials
which can last for a reasonable long period of time without losing
its usefulness as a medium of exchange. Designs and inscriptions
there in must be visible and recognizable.

Section 57 of the New Central Bank Act
Retirement of Old Notes and Coins “The Bangko Sentral
may call in for replacement notes of any series or denomination
which are more than five (5) years old and coins which are more than
ten (10) years old…….”

“…Notes and coins called in for replacement in
accordance with this provision shall remain
legal tender for a period of one (1) year from
the date of call. After this period, they shall
cease to be legal tender but during the
following year, or for such longer period as the
Monetary Board may determine, they may be
exchanged at par without charge in the
Bangko Sentral for this purpose….”

“….After the expiration of this latter period,
the notes and coins which have not been
exchanged shall cease to be a liability of the
Bangko Sentral and shall be demonetized. The
Bangko Sentral shall also demonetize all notes
and coins which have called in and replaced”.

Portability
•Money must be easy to carry for faster
settlement of transactions. Materials
used, like metal alloys must not be
bulky. For higher denominations,
paper-based materials are preferable
for easy transport.

Divisibility
•Money as a unit of account must be
capable of being subdivided into
smaller denominations to settle
obligations or collections arising from
various transactions.

Section 48 of the New Central Bank Act
Section 48 states that “The monetary
unit in the Philippines is the “PESO”
which is represented by the sign “P”.
The peso is divided into one hundred
(100) equal part called “CENTAVOS”
which are represented by the sign “c”.

Stability of Money Value
•The purchasing power of money must be maintained for a period of
time to maximize economic development thereby increasing
employment level, production and income level.

Purchasing Power of Money Defined
The value of a currency expressed in terms of the amount of goods
or services that one unit of money can buy. Purchasing power is
important because, all else being equal, inflation decreases the
amount of goods or services you'd be able to purchase.

Section 64 of the New Central Bank Act
International Monetary Stabilization states that “The Bangko
Sentral shall exercise its powers under this Act to preserve the
international value of the peso and to maintain its convertability into
other freely convertible currencies primarily for, although not necessarily
limited to, current payments for foreign trade and invisibles.”

Section 65of the New Central Bank Act
International Reserves states that “In order to maintain the
international stability and convertability of the Philippine Peso, the
Bangko Sentral maintain international reserves adequate to meet any
foreseeable net demands on the Bangko Sentral for foreign
currencies…..

“……. In judging the adequacy of the international
reserves, the Monetary Board shall be guided by
the prospective receipts and payments of foreign
exchange by the Philippines. The Board shall give
special attention to the volume and maturity of the
Bangko Sentral’s own liabilities in foreign
currencies, to the volume and maturity of the
foreign exchange assets and liabilities of other
banks and, in so far as they known can be
estimated, the volume and maturity foreign
exchange assets and liabilities of all other persons
and entities in the Philippines.”

Cognizability
•Good money must be easy to recognize. Each denomination must
be distinct to avoid confusion with other denomination during
exchange transactions. Weight, fineness, designs and other
characteristics of coins and notes, as prescribed by the Monetary
Board, must be unique for a denomination.

Homogeneity or Uniformity
•Money belonging to the same denomination must have the same
characteristics in terms of weight, fineness and designs. Coins of
the same denomination, must have uniform weight of metal alloy,
fineness, shape, size and inscriptions. Paper bills, under the same
denomination must possess uniform design, size, color and other
physical characteristics.

Malleability
•Materials for the minting of money must be capable of being
stamped with proper design and durable to maintain its form. The
form and design of coins are a compromise of objectives. The least
wear and tear can be attained by a spherical form and a minimum
of design; but such a form would be awkward to handle, difficult
to recognize, and therefore easy to counterfeit.

•Design of a coin is a compromise between the artistry of high relief
and the exposure to abrasion. Pure gold and silver are very soft,
and so it is necessary to harden them by adding alloys of copper,
nickel, tin or zinc. The harder the material but malleable, less is the
wear and tear, lesser is the possibility for counterfeits.

Importance of Money

Money simplifies matters.
Money becomes the medium of exchange.
With money, there is low-uncertainty-high-exchangeability
requirement.
Money also contributes to economic development and growth.
Money is a store of value.
