The velocity of money, V, is defined as the ratio of real GNP to real money holdings, V= Y(MIP) this chapter's notation. Use equation (15-4) to derive an expression for velocity and explain how velocity varies with changes in R and in Y.

What is the relationship between velocity and the exchange rate?
