Aggregate demand and supply
A.Demand
Total demand for a nation's goods and services in a period of time at a range of price levels
Downwards sloping curve
The average price level shows the way in which prices in the economy change over time. If the APL rises, this indicates inflation. Consumers, producers, and government are not happy demanding goods and services at a high price. If the APL falls there will be higher AD for real output in the economy.
Interest rates
Increase price level -> More money needed to be borrowed to buy -> Increase in interests rates -> less borrowing -> less consumption -> Can cause upward movement along the AD curve
International trade effect
Increase price level in a country while the foreign country stays the same-> exports become expensive -> less demanded. Import becomes less expensive -> more demanded abroad. Decrease in Xn -> downward movement in A.D
Wealth Effect
Price level increase -> Real wealth value decreases -> People feel worse off -> Cut back on spending
Change in A.Demand curve
