 IS-LM and aggregate demand
 So far, we’ve been using the IS-LM model to
analyze the short run, when the price level is
assumed fixed.

 However, a change in P would

in the short run & long run
The force that moves the economy from the short
run to the long run is the gradual adjustment of
prices.

In the short-run then over time, the

 IS – LM Summary

1. IS-LM model
 a theory of aggregate demand
 exogenous: M, G, T,
P exogenous in short run, Y in long run
 endogenous: r,
Y endogenous in short run, P in long run
 IS curve: goods market equilibrium
 LM curve: money market equilibrium

2. AD curve
 shows relation between P and the IS-LM model’s
equilibrium Y.
 negative slope because
P  (M/P )  r  I  Y
 expansionary fiscal policy shifts IS curve right,
raises income, and shifts AD curve right.
 expansionary monetary policy shifts LM curve right,
raises income, and shifts AD curve right.
 IS or LM shocks shift the AD curve.
