Describe the difference between the simple quantity theory of money and the equation of exchange
The equation of exchange is an identity which states that the money supply multiplied by velocity must equal the price level times Real GDP. It is not a theory of the macroeconomy until assumptions are made about the variables in the equation. In the simple quantity theory of money, velocity (V) and Real GDP (Q) are assumed to be constant. With V and Q constant, it follows that changes in the money supply cause strictly proportional changes in the price level.
