Using the model of aggregate demand and aggregate supply, explain how shifts in either aggregate demand or aggregate supply can cause recessions. When government spending is increased, the amount of the increase in aggregate demand primarily depends on what? How does the size of the m...
Using cointegration and vector-error correction (VEC) modeling techniques, this paper presents new evidence on the effect of inflation variability on the demand for real money balances in China. The major result shows that increases in the inflation variability exert a significant effect upon money ...
In those articles, we discussed that inflation was caused by a combination of four factors. Those factors are: The supply of money goes up. The supply of goods goes down. Demand for money goes down. Demand for goods goes up. You would think that the demand for money would be infinite....
Suppose the Fed has increased the discount rate. With the aid of an AD-AS diagram, explain how this monetary policy action will affect real growth and inflation in the short run and the long run. How will an increase in aggregate demand most likely affec...
If inflation is in check, and the economy is in healthy shape, corporate revenues and profits are also expected to grow, resulting in greater market demand for the shares of companies with increased profits. A healthy economy with modest inflation often sets the stage for higher stock prices. ...
Lower rates and reserves held by banks would likely lead to an increased demand for borrowing at lower rates, and banks would have more money to lend. The result would be more money in the economy, leading to increased spending and demand for goods, causing inflation. Acentral bank, such a...

There are situations where increases in the money supply do not cause inflation, but rather other economic conditions, like hyperinflation or deflation, occur instead. During COVID-19, the Federal Reserve materially increased the nation's money supply. As a result, the nation experienced higher-tha...
more stable inflation rates in emerging markets could lead to increased economic stability and potentially attract more foreign investment. Meanwhile, the reduced sensitivity of domestic prices to exchange rate movements might make it harder for these economies to gain competitive advantages by depreci...
If supply is static while demand increases, price increases. If supply is static while demand decreases, price decreases. Price Elasticity Increased prices typically result in lower demand, and demand increases generally lead to increased supply; however, the supply of different products responds to ...
