Aggregate Demand
Total spending in the economy.
This equation will be about
the shape of the curve,
and the change in each
piece of the equation will
shift the curve.
Jean-Baptiste Say (French;
1767 –1832) was a French
economist and businessman. He
had classically liberal views and
argued in favor of competition.
他有古典自由主义的观点,并认为
有利于竞争。
Supply creates it’s
own Demand
Say’s law
Remember this? This helped to
argue that the long run supply
is really important, that
everything goes back to the
long run some how.
John Maynard Keynes, 5 June 1883 – 21 April 1946)
was a British economist whose ideas have fundamentally affected the theory
and practice of modern macroeconomics, and informed the economic
policies of governments. He is widely considered to be one of the founders of
modern macroeconomics and the most influential economist of the 20th
century
Well he said so what?
In the Long Run we are all
dead!!!

Aggregate Demand
(AD)
3.) Aggregate Demand
- Total spending in an economy
in a given time period.
Y = C + I + G + (X – M)
Y = C + I + G + NX
or
Ceteris Paribus:
• When the P level rises, the Q of real
GDP demanded decreases.
• When the P level falls, the Q of real
GDP demanded increases.
This is the main
equation of
macroeconomics!!!

The equation is about 4
parts of SPENDING areas
of this circle (C+I+G+NX)
Y = C + I + G + (X – M)
C = consumption – of G&S in an economy.
It is typically the largest part of
an economy.
4.1) Aggregate Demand slope
Y = C + I + G + (X – M)
4.1) Aggregate Demand slope
- Change in purchasing powerThe Wealth Effect
(P and C )
Suppose P rises.
- The dollars people hold buy
fewer G&S, so real wealth is lower.
- People feel poorer.
Result: C falls.
example:
Y = C + I + G + (X – M)
C = consumption
4.1) Aggregate Demand slope
I = investment – spending of capital in an economy.
Not stocks and bonds!
Y = C + I + G + (X – M)
4.1) Aggregate Demand slope
- Change in desire to investThe Interest-Rate
Effect
(P and I )
Suppose P rises.
-Buying G&S requires more dollars.
- People demand use of more dollars which
drives up interest rates.
- Higher interest rates mean less investment.
Result: I falls.
example:
Y = C + I + G + (X – M)
C = consumption
4.1) Aggregate Demand slope
I = investment
G = government spending – net after taxes.
Now = Ceteris Paribus,
governments try to control the
economy, a topic for later
Y = C + I + G + (X – M)
C = consumption
4.1) Aggregate Demand slope
I = investment
G = government spending
X-M = exports - imports – net exports.
NX
Y = C + I + G + (X – M)
4.1) Aggregate Demand slope
- Booms/recessions in countries
change export and importing
rates.
- Appreciation/depreciation change
export and importing rates.
- Changes of value of money on
FOREX change imports and exports.
The Exchange-Rate
Effect
(P and NX )
Y = C + I + G + (X – M)
4.1) Aggregate Demand slope
- Changes of value of money on
FOREX change imports and exports.
The Exchange-Rate
Effect
(P and NX ) example:
Suppose P rises.
- U.S. interest rates rise (the interest-rate effect).
- Foreign investors desire more U.S. bonds.
-Higher demand for $ in foreign exchange market.
- U.S. exchange rate appreciates.
- U.S. exports more expensive to people abroad,
imports cheaper to U.S. residents.
Result: NX falls.
An increase in P reduces the
quantity of G&S demanded
because:

- Total spending in an economy
in a given time period.
How each one does
NOT relates to the
price level.
Any event that changes C, I, G, or NX
– That is NOT a change in P –
will shift the AD curve.

households feel wealthier, C rises,
the AD curve shifts right.

4.2) Aggregate Demand shifts
- Any reason consumption changes that is not
because of price.
- People decide to
saving more money
for retirement.
examples:
shift left: shift right:
- A decrease in taxes
encourages people to
spend more.
4.2) Aggregate Demand shifts
Y = C + I + G + (X – M)
The Wealth Effect
(C shifts )
- People feel good about
the future and increase
spending today.
- People feel bad about
the future and decrease
spending and save
more.
Shifting of AD
The Interest-Rate
Effect (I shifts)
- Firms are unsure about
future business conditions
and cut back on investment
spending.
- Increase in taxes on
business, lowers
investment spending.
- Any reason investment changes that is not
because of price, a change in investor confidence.
- Companies invest in new
computers increases
demand for them.
- A decrease in interest rates
leads to more investment
spending.
4.2) Aggregate Demand shifts
Y = C + I + G + (X – M)
examples:
shift left: shift right:
Shifting of AD
4.2) Aggregate Demand shifts
Y = C + I + G + (X – M)
examples:
shift left: shift right:
- Government decisions that change the overall
economy.
Government spending
- Government buys a new
weapon system.
- Government builds more
highways.
- Government spends less
money on infrastructure.
- Government collects less
taxes and spends less on
public goods.
Shifting of AD
4.2) Aggregate Demand shifts
Y = C + I + G + (X – M)
examples:
shift left: shift right:
The Exchange-Rate
Effect
(NX shifts)
- Any reason the amount of net exports change.
- Europe is in recession so it buys
fewer Chinese goods at all price
levels so net Chinese exports fall.
- Exchange rates Appreciate so
goods become more expensive for
foreigners so demand shifts left.
- Consumer tastes change to buy
more Chinese goods at all price
levels so net Chinese exports raise.
- Exchange rates depreciate so
goods become cheaper for
foreigners so demand shifts right.
