unit is independent, investments
accumulate over time, e.g. a farm
 Units can accumulate value in monetary
asset (e.g. claim on government) in order to
save for large investments
 Units can borrow and lend individually
 Financial intermediaries raise funds from
saving units and lend to investing units

Balance Sheets and Flows
Non-Bank Balance Sheet
Assets
Real Assets
Financial Assets
Money
Lending
Equity
J. K. Dietrich - FBE 524 – Fall 2005
Liabilities and Net Worth
Borrowing
Net Worth (= Others' Equity)
Sources and uses = flows
 Sources
and uses are changes in balance
sheets
 We want to look at both
 Balance sheets represents stocks, hence
total size, at a point in time
 Flows represent net changes in stocks (I.e.
new issues minus repayments of financial
assets or liabilities)
J. K. Dietrich - FBE 524 – Fall 2005
Balance sheets and portfolios
 Assets
= Liabilities + (net worth = equity,
common stock shares, etc.)
 Assets
– Financial assets
» Money, loans and bonds, equity investments
– Real assets
» Housing, consumer durables including autos
» Inventory, plant and equipment
J. K. Dietrich - FBE 524 – Fall 2005
Balance sheets/portfolios (cont’d)
 Liabilities
– Monetary liabilities (loans, mortgages)
– Other financial liabilities
 Net
worth is composed of equity in real assets and
net financial claims on others
 Sectors are aggregate balance sheets of similar
units
– Households, business, government
– Financial institutions

Wealth and flow of funds
 Primary
sectors = households, business
government
 Financial sector
– Financial claims - financial liabilities (small
holdings of real assets)
 Aggregate
wealth is real assets since all
financial claims cancel
J. K. Dietrich - FBE 524 – Fall 2005
Wealth
 Total
wealth in 2004 is approximately (billions)
$22,566.2 + $10,479.1 + 6,407.9 = $ 39.5 trillion
 2004 GDP is $11,734.9 trillion, so income-capital
ratio is approximately .30 or capital-income ratio
3.4
 1980 wealth approximately $ 9,729.7 trillion, GDP
$ 2,789.5 trillion, so capital-income ratio is also
about 3.5 (about the same)
 GDP over assets in 1980 and 2004 around 30%
 Has tangible wealth composition changed?
J. K. Dietrich - FBE 524 – Fall 2005
Distribution of GDP
 Employee
compensation in 2004 was $6,651, or
56.7% of GDP
 Business tangible assets were $ 16,887.0 or 40.7%
of “total” tangible assets
 Roughly gross before tax return on business
investment is:
GDP * (1  w ) $11.7 * (.433)
R
