Determining Aggregate Demand (AD)
This chapter -- looks at the components of Aggregate Expenditure.
Examines the major causes of Consumption (C), Investment (I), Government Expenditure Net of Taxes (G - T), and Net Exports (X - M).

Causes of Consumption (C)
Aggregate Income (Y), Y CWealth, Wealth CConsumer Confidence (CC), CC C

Applying the Causes to Aggregate Demand (AD)
Aggregate Income (Y), appears on the graph, Y C relationship affects the shape of the AD curve.
Changes in Wealth or Consumer Confidence make up autonomous consumption (consumption due to causes other than Y) -- shift the AD curve.

Consumer Confidence and the Economy
Example -- effect of a decrease in consumer confidence.

Causes of Investment (I) The Capital MarketInvestment (I) -- primarily business
purchases of new plant and equipment along with new residential housing.
Large expenditures create the need for long-term borrowing. Borrowing is done from financial intermediaries such as banks or by companies issuing bonds or stock.
![Page 6: Determining Aggregate Demand (AD)](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815c59550346895dca5cc7/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Investment and Capital Market Behavior
Investment results from behavior in the capital market.
The Capital Market -- the demand and supply for financial capital needed to finance purchases of plant and equipment (I).
![Page 7: Determining Aggregate Demand (AD)](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815c59550346895dca5cc7/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The Demand For Financial Capital (DI) -- Major CausesNominal (Long-Term) Interest Rate (r) –
cost of borrowing to finance investment r DIExpected Inflation Rate (e) e DIBusiness Confidence (BC) BC DI

Formalizing the Demand for Financial Capital (DI)Graph DI against one of its causes -- the
nominal interest rate (r).Inverse relationship implies that the curve
is downward sloping.Changes in r are described as a
movement along the curve.Graph is drawn assuming that other
causes are constant (ceteris paribus).
![Page 9: Determining Aggregate Demand (AD)](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815c59550346895dca5cc7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Shifts in the Demand for Financial Capital
Changes in causes other than r are described as shifts of the DI curve.
Changes that increase the Demand for Financial Capital shift the DI curve rightward.
Changes that decrease the Demand for Financial Capital shift the DI curve leftward.

Other Causes -- Supply of Financial Capital
Monetary Policy -- affects banks ability to loan (more later).
Foreigners’ willingness to buy US bonds or stock (Capital Flow).

Formalizing the Supply of Financial Capital (SI)Graph SI versus one of its causes --
the nominal interest rate (r).Positive relationship implies that the
curve is upward sloping.Changes in r are described as a
movement along the curve.Graph is drawn assuming that other
causes are constant (ceteris paribus).

Shifts in the Supply of Financial Capital
Changes in causes other than r are described as shifts of the SI curve.
Changes that increase the Supply of Financial Capital shift the SI curve rightward.
Changes that decrease the Supply of Financial Capital shift the SI curve leftward.

Equilibrium in the Capital Market -- Determining I
Investment (I*) occurs where the Demand for Financial Capital (DI) equals the Supply of Financial Capital (SI).
Shifts in the Demand or Supply of Financial Capital, as a result, change Investment (I*)
Because they change Investment, they also change Aggregate Demand, and Y*, and P* as a result.
![Page 15: Determining Aggregate Demand (AD)](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815c59550346895dca5cc7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Example 1 -- An Increase in Business Confidence (BC)
BC DIDI curve shifts rightward IBecause investment increases, the
AD curve shifts rightward.In the AD-AS model, this results in
Y*, P*.

AD curve shifts rightward.In the AD-AS model, this results in

Causes of (G - T)
Government Purchases of Goods and Services (G), Net Taxes (T), are policy variables.
Basically controlled by the government.
G, T changed for policy purposes (Fiscal Policy), other reasons as well.

Example -- War and the Economy
War Need for More Soldiers and Weapons G (G - T)
Because (G - T) increases, the AD curve shifts rightward.
In the AD-AS model, this results in Y*, P*.

Causes of Net Exports (NX)
General Principles -- NX = X - M, must consider causes of both exports and imports. -- Assume for simplicity that the world consists of 2 countries, the US and the rest of the world.

A Digression -- Introduction to Exchange Rates
Exchange Rate (e) -- the amount of foreign currency needed to be exchanged for one (US) dollar.
Also known as the “value of the dollar”.
Conversion Ratio, in units of (foreign currency)/(US dollar)
![Page 22: Determining Aggregate Demand (AD)](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815c59550346895dca5cc7/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Types of Exchange Rates
Bilateral Exchange Rates -- exchange rate between the US and an individual country.
Multilateral (Trade Weighted) Exchange Rate -- weighted average of bilateral exchange rates expressed as an index (macro measure of exchange rate).
![Page 23: Determining Aggregate Demand (AD)](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815c59550346895dca5cc7/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Using Exchange Rates as a Conversion Ratio
Both Examples: US exchange rate vs Japanese Yen = 100 (yen/$).
Example 1 -- Suppose that dinner for two people in the US costs $50. Find its price in terms of yen.
($50)(100 yen) = 5000 yen (1 $)
![Page 24: Determining Aggregate Demand (AD)](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815c59550346895dca5cc7/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Example 2 -- The Exchange Rate as a Conversion Ratio
Example 2 -- Suppose that dinner for two people in Japan costs 6832 yen. Find its price in terms of US dollars ($).
(6832 yen) (1 $) = $68.32 (100 yen)
Note: e = 100 (yen/$)

Return to Aggregate Demand -- An Example
Example -- effect of a decrease in world output or income (YW).
YW X (X - M)Therefore the AD curve shifts leftward.In the AD-AS model, this results in Y*,

Aggregate Demand Changes and the EconomyLots of factors shift aggregate demand
(AD), affect Y* and P*.Poses challenges: economy subject to
“buffeting winds,” blows the economy off course (either to where Y* < YF or Y* > YF).
Role of Economic Policy -- to counteract “buffeting winds,” to take steps to move Y* closer to YF.
