After commencing the cash economy money appeared as an engine of economic growth.

The parameters of this model demonstrate that causality is running from broad money supply to GDP, meaning that M 2 manipulates the GDP enduringly. It is originated in the post estimation specification tests that there is no auto-correlation at lag order and residuals are normally distributed.
