The Influence of Monetary
and Fiscal Policy on Aggregate Demand Chapter 32 Copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. All rights reserved. Requests for permission to make copies of any part of the work should be mailed to: Permissions Department, Harcourt College Publishers,
2.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. Aggregate Demand Many factors influence aggregate demand besides monetary and fiscal policy. In particular, desired spending by households and business firms determines the overall demand for goods and services.
3.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. Aggregate Demand When desired spending changes, aggregate demand shifts, causing short-run fluctuations in output and employment. Monetary and fiscal policy are sometimes used to offset those shifts and stabilize the economy.
4.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. How Monetary Policy Influences Aggregate Demand The aggregate demand curve slopes downward for three reasons: The wealth effect The interest-rate effect The exchange-rate effect
5.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. How Monetary Policy Influences Aggregate Demand For the U.S. economy, the most important reason for the downward slope of the aggregate-demand curve is the interest-rate effect.
6.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. The Theory of Liquidity Preference Keynes developed the theory of liquidity preference in order to explain what factors determine the economy’s interest rate. According to the theory, the interest rate adjusts to balance the supply and demand for money.
7.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. Money Supply The money supply is controlled by the Fed through: Open-market operations Changing the reserve requirements Changing the discount rate
8.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. Money Supply Because it is fixed by the Fed, the quantity of money supplied does not depend on the interest rate. The fixed money supply is represented by a vertical supply curve.
9.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. Money Demand Money demand is determined by several factors. According to the theory of liquidity preference, one of the most important factors is the interest rate.
10.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. Money Demand People choose to hold money instead of other assets that offer higher rates of return because money can be used to buy goods and services.
11.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. Money Demand The opportunity cost of holding money is the interest that could be earned on interest-earning assets. An increase in the interest rate raises the opportunity cost of holding money. As a result, the quantity of money demanded is reduced.
12.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. Equilibrium in the Money Market According to the theory of liquidity preference: The interest rate adjusts to balance the supply and demand for money. There is one interest rate, called the equilibrium interest rate, at which the quantity of money demanded equals the quantity of money supplied.
13.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. Equilibrium in the Money Market Assume the following about the economy: The price level is stuck at some level. For any given price level, the interest rate adjusts to balance the supply and demand for money. The level of output responds to the aggregate demand for goods and services.
14.

Money Market... Quantity of Money Interest Rate 0 Money demand Quantity fixed by the Fed Money supply r2 M d 2 r1 M d 1 Equilibrium interest rate Harcourt, Inc. items and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc.
15.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. The Downward Slope of the Aggregate Demand Curve The price level is one determinant of the quantity of money demanded. A higher price level increases the quantity of money demanded for any given interest rate. Higher money demand leads to a higher interest rate. The quantity of goods and services demanded falls.
16.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. The Downward Slope of the Aggregate Demand Curve The end result of this analysis is a negative relationship between the price level and the quantity of goods and services demanded.

Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. Changes in the Money Supply The Fed can shift the aggregate demand curve when it changes monetary policy. An increase in the money supply shifts the money supply curve to the right. Without a change in the money demand curve, the interest rate falls. Falling interest rates increase the quantity of goods and services demanded.

20.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. Changes in the Money Supply When the Fed increases the money supply, it lowers the interest rate and increases the quantity of goods and services demanded at any given price level, shifting aggregate-demand to the right. When the Fed contracts the money supply, it raises the interest rate and reduces the quantity of goods and services demanded at any given price level, shifting aggregate-demand to the left.
21.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. The Role of Interest-Rate Targets in Fed Policy Monetary policy can be described either in terms of the money supply or in terms of the interest rate. Changes in monetary policy can be viewed either in terms of a changing target for the interest rate or in terms of a change in the money supply. A target for the federal funds rate affects the money market equilibrium, which influences aggregate demand.
22.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. How Fiscal Policy Influences Aggregate Demand Fiscal policy refers to the government’s choices regarding the overall level of government purchases or taxes. Fiscal policy influences saving, investment, and growth in the long run. In the short run, fiscal policy primarily affects the aggregate demand.
23.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. Changes in Government Purchases When policymakers change the money supply or taxes, the effect on aggregate demand is indirect – through the spending decisions of firms or households. When the government alters its own purchases of goods or services, it shifts the aggregate-demand curve directly.
24.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. Changes in Government Purchases There are two macroeconomic effects from the change in government purchases: The multiplier effect The crowding-out effect
25.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. The Multiplier Effect Government purchases are said to have a multiplier effect on aggregate demand. Each dollar spent by the government can raise the aggregate demand for goods and services by more than a dollar.
26.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. The Multiplier Effect... Aggregate demand, AD1 Quantity of Output 0 Price Level AD2 1. An increase in government purchases of $20 billion initially increases aggregate demand by $20 billion… $20 billion AD3 2. …but the multiplier effect can amplify the shift in aggregate demand.
27.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. A Formula for the Spending Multiplier The formula for the multiplier is: Multiplier = 1/(1 - MPC) An important number in this formula is the marginal propensity to consume (MPC). It is the fraction of extra income that a household consumes rather than saves.
28.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. A Formula for the Spending Multiplier If the MPC is 3/4, then the multiplier will be: Multiplier = 1/(1 - 3/4) = 4 In this case, a $20 billion increase in government spending generates $80 billion of increased demand for goods and services.
29.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. The Crowding-Out Effect Fiscal policy may not affect the economy as strongly as predicted by the multiplier. An increase in government purchases causes the interest rate to rise. A higher interest rate reduces investment spending.
30.
Harcourt, Inc. items
and derived items copyright © 2001 by Harcourt, Inc. The Crowding-Out Effect This reduction in demand that results when a fiscal expansion raises the interest rate is called the crowding-out effect. The crowding-out effect tends to dampen the effects of fiscal policy on aggregate demand.
31.

The Crowding-Out Effect When the government increases its purchases by $20 billion, the aggregate demand for goods and services could rise by more or less than $20 billion, depending on whether the multiplier effect or the crowding-out effect is larger.

Households save some of this additional income. Households also spend some of it on consumer goods. Increased household spending shifts the aggregate-demand curve to the right.

The Case for Active Stabilization Policy The Employment Act has two implications: The government should avoid being the cause of economic fluctuations. The government should respond to changes in the private economy in order to stabilize aggregate demand.

Monetary and fiscal policy affect the economy with a substantial lag. They suggest the economy should be left to deal with the short-run fluctuations on its own.

Automatic Stabilizers Automatic stabilizers are changes in fiscal policy that stimulate aggregate demand when the economy goes into a recession without policymakers having to take any deliberate action. Automatic stabilizers include the tax system and some forms of government spending.

A higher interest rate reduces investment and, thereby, the quantity of goods and services demanded. The downward-sloping aggregate-demand curve expresses this negative relationship between the price-level and the quantity demanded.

An increase in the money supply will ultimately lead to the aggregate-demand curve shifting to the right. A decrease in the money supply will ultimately lead to the aggregate-demand curve shifting to the left.

An increase in government purchases or a cut in taxes shifts the aggregate-demand curve to the right. A decrease in government purchases or an increase in taxes shifts the aggregate- demand curve to the left.

The multiplier effect tends to amplify the effects of fiscal policy on aggregate demand. The crowding-out effect tends to dampen the effects of fiscal policy on aggregate demand.

Summary Because monetary and fiscal policy can influence aggregate demand, the government sometimes uses these policy instruments in an attempt to stabilize the economy. Economists disagree about how active the government should be in this effort. Policy advocates say that if the government does not respond the result will be undesirable fluctuations. Critics argue that attempts at stabilization often turn out destabilizing.
