Backroom Deals) debt-free. The ability has a 60-second cooldown, has a full initial cooldown, has a limit of 2 uses per round, is disabled if the round lasts longer than 3 minutes, and cannot be used between rounds. The amount of money granted by the ability cannot be increased.

Strategy
[edit | edit source]As an ability-based income method, Monkey-Nomics benefits from stalling the rounds as much as possible so that more abilities can be used per round. With maximum stalling, the Monkey-Nomics ability can be used twice, making $18,000 ($20,000 with Backroom Deals) per round. However, the player should take note that during Ranked Boss Events, cash-generating abilities pause their cooldown when the penalty timer is active. Without stalling, Monkey-Nomics is generally inferior to the other tier 5 Banana Farms until late Freeplay, in which the rounds are much longer.
To farm the most money in freeplay challenges using the Monkey-Nomics, have the ability off cooldown at the start of the round, then use it twice and immeditely sell and replace it, and use the ability another 2 times for maximum cash. This should ideally done with the 0-5-2 crosspath next to a Favored Trades Buccaneer, and produces huge amounts of cash.
Energizer decreases the ability's cooldown, which serves as a buff to cash production when not maximally stalling. Geraldo's Rejuv Potion will reset the ability's cooldown, which turns a profit as the potion costs less than the ability provides.
With Monkey Knowledge active, Banana Salvage is the preferred crosspath. Greater Production makes little difference when using 
Bank Deposits. Even without depositing, it takes dozens of rounds for Greater Production to profit more than Banana Salvage after selling.
