Transactions Flow Matrix

This matrix shows the flows of the economy - the financial transactions that occur in a single step and cause the stocks on the balance sheet to change.

How to Read This Table

  • Rows: Each row represents a single, distinct type of transaction.
  • Columns: Each column represents an agent (or sector) in the model's economy.
  • + (Inflow): The agent in this column receives a payment.
  • - (Outflow): The agent in this column makes a payment.
  • (A, L): An entry in parentheses describes a change to the agent's balance sheet (Assets, Liabilities).
  • E: Represents the agent's Net Worth or Equity.
  • D / c: Represents a deposit in a current account.
  • t: Represents a deposit in a time (savings or custody) account.

The sum of every single row is zero. This is the fundamental proof that the model is stock-flow consistent—no money is ever created or destroyed without a corresponding and equal entry elsewhere in the system.
