CHAPTER ELEVEN
Aggregate Demand II
Now that we’ve assembled the IS-LM model of aggregate demand,
let’s apply it to three issues:
1) Causes of fluctuations in national income
2) How IS-LM fits into the model of aggregate supply and aggregate
demand
3) The Great Depression

The intersection of the IS curve and the LM curve determines the level of national income
When one of these curves shifts, the short-run equilibrium of the economy changes, and national income fluctuates Let’s examine how changes in policy and shocks to the economy can
cause these curves to shift

This will raise the level of income by ∆G/(1- MPC)

The IS curve shifts to the right by ∆G/(1- MPC) which raises income
and the interest rate

+∆M Consider an increase in the money supply
The LM curve shifts downward and lowers the interest rate which raises
income Why? Because when the Fed increases the supply of money, people
have more money than they want to hold at the prevailing interest rate As a
result, they start depositing this extra money in banks or use it to buy bonds
The interest rate r then falls until people are willing to hold all the extra
money that the Fed has created; this brings the money market to a new
equilibrium The lower interest rate, in turn has ramifications for the goods
market A lower interest rate stimulates planned investment, which increases
planned expenditure, production, and income Y
The IS-LM model shows that monetary policy influences income by
changing the interest rate This conclusion sheds light on our analysis
of monetary policy in Chapter 9 In that chapter we showed that in
the short run, when prices are sticky, an expansion in the money
supply raises income But, we didn’t discuss how a monetary
expansion induces greater spending on goods and services a process
called the monetary transmission mechanism.
The IS-LM model shows that an increase in the money supply lowers
the interest rate, which stimulates investment and thereby expands the
demand for goods and services

You probably noticed from the IS and LM diagrams that r and Y were on
the two axes Now we’re going to bring a third variable, the price level
(P) into the analysis We can accomplish this by linking both
two-dimensional graphs
r
Y
IS
LM(P1) A
A
AD
To derive AD, start at point A in the top graph Now increase the price level from P1
to P2
An increase in P lowers the value of real money balances, and Y, shifting LM leftward to point B
The +∆P triggers a sequence of events that end with a -∆Y, the inverse relationship that defines the downward slope of AD
Notice that r increased Since r increased, we know that investment will decrease as it just got more costly to take on various investment projects This sets off a multiplier process since -∆I causes a –∆Y
The -∆Y triggers -∆C as we move up the IS curve

This translates into a rightward shift of the IS and AD curves.
LM (P2)
Suppose there is a +∆G
In the short-run, we move along SRAS from
point A to point B
But as the output market clears, in the long-run,
the price level will increase from P0to P2
This +∆P decreases the value of real money
balances, which translates into a leftward shift
of the LM curve
Finally, this leaves us at point C in both diagrams

Notice that M\was increased, thus increasing the value of the real money

Suppose there is a +∆M
Look at the appropriate equation
that captures the M term:
In the short-run, we move along SRAS from
point A to point B
But as the output market clears, in the long-run,
the price level will increase from P0to P2
This +∆P decreases the value of the

3) +∆P causes LM(P0) to shift leftward

The spending hypothesis suggests that perhaps the cause of the
decline may have been a contractionary shift of the IS curve
The money hypothesis attempts to explain the effects of the historical
fall of the money supply of 25% from 1929 to 1933 during which
time unemployment rose from 3.2% to 25.2.%
Some economists say that deflation worsened the Great Depression
They argue that the deflation may have turned what in 1931 was a
typical economic downturn into an unprecedented period of high

An expected deflation (a negative value of πe) raises the real interest
rate for any given nominal interest rate, and this depresses investment
spending The reduction in investment shifts the IS curve downward
The level of income and the nominal interest rate (i) fall, but the real
interest rate (r) rises
