Law of Demand The law states that other things remaining constant, quantity demanded of a commodity increases with a fall in its own price and diminishes with a rise in its own price, i.e. there exist a inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded. Geometrically, it is represented by a downward sloping demand curve.

Price ceiling is the maximum price of a good which sellers can expect from buyers. This price is fixed by the government and is lower than the equilibrium market price of a good (OPe). Hence, the price ceiling leads to excess of demand and contract of supply.
Effects of price ceiling:
i. Price ceiling enables the availability of basic goods at reasonable prices to the poor.
This enables to increase the welfare of the people.
ii. When there is a fall in the price level, the demand for a good increases more than the supply of the good. Hence, it creates an excess demand for the good.
iii. A consumer receives only a limited quantity of goods because the fixed quota system is followed. So, the consumer would not be able to satisfy his/her needs.
iv. Goods which are available at ration shops are mostly of a low quality.
v. As the consumer demands are not satisfied, they are willing to pay a high price for satisfying their demand in the market. This results in black-marketing which reduces the actual availability of goods in the market.

Commercial banks create money even though they cannot print money. Bank deposits form the basis for credit creation. They accept deposits from the public by opening a deposit account known as the primary deposit. Banks do not hold the money in the account itself, and the entire amount is not withdrawn from the account at the same time. So, they advance loans to business persons and retain only a small portion of the total deposits in the bank. The Central Bank decides the amount to be held in the form of cash and the remaining amount is advanced as loans to business persons only against collateral securities. The bank will not give cash but open a derivative account in the name of the individual or institution. Here, the loans create a derivative deposit which is called a secondary deposit or derivative deposit. This secondary deposit is called the creation of credit. Hence, the banks are able to provide financial assistance to traders and industrialists. Their cheques and drafts are useful for trading on a large scale. It also provides concessional loans to the priority sectors such as agriculture, small-scale industry, retail trade and export. Thus, the production activity increases the overall development of the nation.

Minimum price ceiling means the least price that could be paid for a good or service. It is the price fixed by the government for a good in the market. The government fixes the price on agricultural products and food grains in particular so that the farmers get their fair price of a commodity which otherwise actually can be sold with too low of a price.
Effects of price floor:
(i) Minimum Return: Farmers are ensured with the minimum returns as their products are completely sold in the market at comparatively higher price. This leads to an increase in their level of income.
(ii) Maximum Level of output: The government ensures to buy the full produce of the farmers which are not sold in the market at the price floor. Hence, they are able to produce the maximum level of output.
(iii) Burden on Government: It also puts extra burden on the government revenues. It becomes mandatory for the government to purchase the excess produce, even if it runs a sufficient volume of buffer stocks.
(iv) Higher Taxes: The government also tries to shift the burden (associated with purchasing the excess produce at higher price) to the consumers and the traders in form of higher taxes.

- Transfer Function: The basic and the most visible function of foreign exchange market is the transfer of funds (foreign currency) from one country to another for the settlement of payments. It basically includes the conversion of one currency to another,wherein the role of FOREX is to transfer the purchasing power from one country to another.
For example, If the exporter of India import goods from the USA and the payment is to be made in dollars, then the conversion of the rupee to the dollar will be facilitated by FOREX. The transfer function is performed through a use of credit instruments, such as bank drafts, bills of foreign exchange, and telephone transfers.
- Credit Function: FOREX provides a short-term credit to the importers so as to facilitate the smooth flow of goods and services from country to country. An importer can use credit to finance the foreign purchases. Such as an Indian company wants to purchase the machinery from the USA, can pay for the purchase by issuing a bill of exchange in the foreign exchange market, essentially with a three-month maturity.
- Hedging Function: The third function of a foreign exchange market is to hedge foreign exchange risks. The parties to the foreign exchange are often afraid of the fluctuations in the exchange rates, i.e., the price of one currency in terms of another. The change in the exchange rate may result in a gain or loss to the party concerned.
Thus, due to this reason the FOREX provides the services for hedging the anticipated or actual claims/liabilities in exchange for the forward contracts. A forward contract is usually a three month contract to buy or sell the foreign exchange for another currency at a fixed date in the future at a price agreed upon today. Thus, no money is exchanged at the time of the contract.
There are several dealers in the foreign exchange markets, the most important amongst them are the banks. The banks have their branches in different countries through which the foreign exchange is facilitated, such service of a bank are called as Exchange Banks.
