Greetings,
It's been two months since we set up the credit-bank-model forum. At that time, I thought I had already completed the development model. It turned out to be a much deeper problem than I first imagined. There was the problem of taxes to deal with, and many other subtle problems arose as I thought more about how the process would unfold. Also, in order to make the model understandable, I had to develop lots of diagrams to illustrate the economic flows at the the different stages of development. The result is a 26-page document:
CouponDevelopmentModel.pdf
The name of the process has changed, because the use of coupons seems to be the most reliable way to minimize taxes. Please take a look when you get the time. You feedback is eagerly sought before trying to circulate the document to wider circles.
many thanks for your patience,
richard
