Postscripts

The presented theory and algorithms there is a real possibility in the future to supply the entire system of world economy with reliable forecasts and financial options for the first time, and thus finally to get a better grip on world economies. The actual impact of public and private economic decisions are now in principle calculable and predictable. In addition to the predictive power of the real existing economies, it also offers the possibility to test hypothetical economic systems. For example, if one intends to introduce new payment systems. Or currency unions, its actual impact of exchange rates and their definitions or free convertibility. The development of stock markets is an issue that was not addressed in this issue yet, but should be also a quite predictable size. Although not everyone erratic deflection of an index can be calculated, but due to the visible and explorable substitutional relationships of any business it is in principle calculable.

All possibilities of the Macroeconomic Field Theory goes beyond the scope of this introductory book by far. Much can and must be incorporated in later editions expanded and improved. There is still a lot of theoretical and practical work to do and hopefully also done by the lot of competitors in the field in the future.

Tables

The original tables usually have monthly or annual values until1998 in Deutsche Mark (DM) and from 1999 in EURO. For the numerical values of the DM availability were uniformly converted into EURO. All EURO amounts are expressed in units of billions of euros. The following table shows the values on an annual basis. In the first column of the tables calendar years are indicated.

Time Series OU0308 (FRG): Banks balance sheet total (up to December 1998: Volume of business) / All bank categories [Bilanzumme (bis Dez. 1998 Geschäftsvolumen) / Alle Bankengruppen; Allgemein: Geschäftsvolumen = Bilanzumme zuzüglich Indossamentsverbindlichkeiten aus rediskontierten Wechseln, den Kreditnehmern abgerechneten eigenen Ziehungen im Umlauf sowie aus dem Wechselbestand vor Verfall zum Einzug versandte Wechsel.]

General: billed business volume = total assets plus endorsement liabilities arising from rediscounted bills of exchange in circulation drawn by the borrowers as well as from the stock exchange before maturity for the collection of bills sent. Source:

The second column shows the year-end values, and the third column shows the annual mean values. All amounts in billion of Euros.

Errata, Addenda, and Preview

In such an extensive work inevitable from time to time will occure same typo. Whether it is the usual spelling and grammar outliers, but in the context of complex mathematical calculations, surely also sometimes at digits. Things that the author looks at the tenth and sometimes proof-reading will not see, while the attentive reader immediately strikes the eye. Therefore, I will communicate any detected error at regular errata on my webseite90. Where, I ask the careful reader will recognize these impurities to let me know by email. The same is true for addenda. Because such a theory is in a fresh development with newly identified applications and/or extensions. These I will adjust if necessary also in an addendum on the Web. You can also bring your own contributions as an interested reader to my attention. Any substantial contribution will be entered into an Addendum and/or improved next edition. The authorship of substantial contributions will undoubtedly always be quoted to the originator. The next edition will also certainly have a number of other practical applications are added to the macroeconomic field theory. These are in fact an extensive research and development work, although now not a theoretical, but still very well represent a practical problem: One needs a lot of hard work and time and money to do so. International and Cross-economic data have to be collected and statistically adjusted, software solutions for the collection and presentation of results are to be programmed and so much more.

The system of errata and addenda should therefore protect your investment in this book: You can keep a long time on the state of research. For the buyer of the first edition I am also available for explanations, help and understanding of questions about my website and email are and may provide personal support.
