The Goods Market
and the Money Market
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

• The goods market is the market in


which goods and services are
Analysis and Policy

exchanged and in which the


equilibrium level of aggregate output
is determined.

• The money market is the market in


C H A P T E R 12:

which financial instruments are


exchanged and in which the
equilibrium level of the interest rate
is determined.

The Links Between the Goods
Market and the Money Market
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

• There is a value of output (income)


(Y) and a level of the interest rate (r)
Analysis and Policy

that are consistent with the existence


of equilibrium in both markets.

• This chapter examines how


monetary and fiscal policies affect
C H A P T E R 12:

the level of output, interest rates, and


investment spending.

The Links Between the Goods
Market and the Money Market
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

• Planned investment depends on the


interest rate and money demand
Analysis and Policy

depends on income.

Link 1: Income and
the Demand for Money
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

• Income, which is
determined in the goods
market, has considerable
Analysis and Policy

influence on the demand


for money in the money
market.
• When income falls, the
C H A P T E R 12:

demand for money falls


and the interest rate falls.

Link 2: Planned Investment
and the Interest Rate
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

• The interest rate, which is


determined in the money
market, has significant
Analysis and Policy

effects on planned
investment in the goods
market.
• When the interest rate
C H A P T E R 12:

rises, planned investment


falls (fewer projects are
likely to be undertaken).

Investment, the Interest Rate
and the Goods Market
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:
Analysis and Policy

• An increase in the
interest rate from 3
percent to 6 percent
lowers planned aggregate

expenditure and thus


reduces equilibrium
income from Y0 to Y1.

Money Demand, Aggregate Output
(Income), and the Money Market
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

• Changes in aggregate
output (income), which
take place in the goods
Analysis and Policy

market, shift the money


demand curve and cause
changes in the interest
rate.

Expansionary Policy Effects
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

• Expansionary fiscal policy is either


an increase in government spending
Analysis and Policy

or a reduction in net taxes aimed at


increasing aggregate output
(income) (Y).

• Expansionary monetary policy is


C H A P T E R 12:

an increase in the money supply


aimed at increasing aggregate
output (income) (Y).

The Crowding-Out Effect
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:
Analysis and Policy

• The crowding-out
effect is the tendency
for increases in
C H A P T E R 12:

government spending
to cause reductions in
 G  Y   M d
  r   I  private investment
spending.
Y increases less than if r did not increase
© 2004 Prentice Hall Business Publishing Principles of Economics, 7/e Karl Case, Ray Fair 11 of 29
The Crowding-Out Effect
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

• The crowding-out effect depends on


the sensitivity or insensitivity of
Analysis and Policy

planned investment spending to


changes in the interest rate.

• Interest sensitivity means that


planned investment spending
C H A P T E R 12:

changes a great deal in response to


changes in the interest rate.

© 2004 Prentice Hall Business Publishing Principles of Economics, 7/e Karl Case, Ray Fair 12 of 29
Expansionary Monetary Policy:
An Increase in the Money Supply
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

• An increase in the money


supply decreases the interest
rate and increases
Analysis and Policy

investment and income.

• However, the simultaneous


increase in the demand for
money keeps the interest rate
C H A P T E R 12:

from falling as far as it


otherwise would.

 M s
 r   I   Y   M d

r decreases less than if Md did not increase

Fed Accommodation of an
Expansionary Fiscal Policy
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

• An expansionary fiscal
policy (higher government
spending or lower taxes) will
Analysis and Policy

increase aggregate output


(income).
• In turn, higher income will
shift the money demand

curve to the right, and put


upward pressure on the
interest rate.

Fed Accommodation of an
Expansionary Fiscal Policy
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

• If the money supply were


unchanged following an
increase in the demand for
Analysis and Policy

money, the interest rate


would rise.
• But if the Fed were to
“accommodate” the fiscal
C H A P T E R 12:

expansion, the interest rate


would not rise.

Contractionary Policy Effects
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

• Contractionary fiscal
policy refers to a
decrease in
Analysis and Policy

government spending
or an increase in net
taxes aimed at
decreasing aggregate
output (income) (Y).

Contractionary Fiscal Policy
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

• The decrease in Y is
smaller when we take
the money market into
Analysis and Policy

account.

Contractionary Monetary Policy
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

• Contractionary monetary
policy refers to a decrease
in the money supply aimed
Analysis and Policy

at decreasing aggregate
output (income) (Y).

Contractionary Monetary Policy
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

• When we take into account


the money market, the
interest rate will increase
Analysis and Policy

by less, and the decrease


in Y will be smaller.
C H A P T E R 12:

  r   I   Y   M d

Y decreases less than if r did not decrease

Appendix: The IS-LM Diagram

given value of the interest


rate.

Appendix: The IS-LM Diagram
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

• The LM curve shows a


positive relationship
between the equilibrium
Analysis and Policy

value of Y and r.
• Each point on the curve
represents equilibrium in
the money market for a
C H A P T E R 12:

given value of aggregate


output (income).
• The LM curve is upward-sloping because higher
income results in higher demand for money and a
higher interest rate.

Appendix: The IS-LM Diagram
Money, the Interest Rate, and Output:

intersect corresponds
to the point at which
the goods market and
the money market are
in equilibrium.

to an increase in aggregate
output, with no change in
the interest rate.
