MANUFACTURERS' INVENTORY CYCLES AND MONETARY POLICY,

Abstract

The availability of credit is one of the factors which many businessmen must take into account when planning their inventory policy. When inventories are rising rapidly, firms become increasingly dependent on bank credit, and a change in credit policy may have an important influence on inventory fluctuations. This study attempts to measure the impact monetary policy might have on inventories, and to examine the limitations such a policy might face. (Author)
