Document Summary

Aggregate demand is made up of four component parts: Consumption expenditure: the total demand for consumer goods and services. Planned investment spending: the total planned spending by business firms on new machines, factories, and other capital goods, plus planned spending on new homes. Government purchases: spending by all levels of government (federal, state, and local) on goods and services. Net exports: the net foreign spending on domestic goods and services. Yad = c + i + g +nx. When inflation rises, monetary authorities react by raising the real interest rate. When the real interest rate is higher, the cost of financing purchases of new physical capital becomes higher, so planned investment spending declines. Seven basic factors (referred to as demand shocks) shift the aggregate demand curve: autonomous monetary policy, government purchases, taxes, autonomous net exports, autonomous consumption expenditure, autonomous investment, financial frictions. Determined by amount of capital and labor and the available technology.
