Answer:

C. basic quantity equation of money

Explanation:

MV = PQ

M = Money Supply ; V = Velocity of Circulation ; P = Price Level ; Q = Transactions

This is the equation given as per 'Fisher's Quantity Theory of Money' .

The theory states that : total money supply with its circulation rate is equal to = total money demand of the total value of transactions i.e Price x Quantity (no. of transactions).
