Exam 4: Monetary and Fiscal Policy in the Is-Lm Model

If the IS curve is negatively sloped and the LM curve is positively sloped

"Crowding-out" occurs in the IS-LM model as rising government spending requires a ________ in the interest rate in order to ________ the demand for money at the new equilibrium, thus ________ planned private investment.

Monetary policy will have a large income effect provided the

On a money demand diagram with the interest rate on the vertical axis, the real money balance demand schedule would be a vertical line under the assumption that

Suppose the government increases its expenditures by $100 billion and simultaneously reduces the money supply by $100 billion. We definitely know that

Figure 4-1 -If there is unplanned inventory decumulation there is excess

Figure 4-4 -In figure above, if the interest rate falls from 10% to 7.5% and this causes businesses to become more optimistic about future investment conditions, we would observe that planned investment would

With normally-sloped IS and LM curves, an increase in government spending ________ the interest rate, which ________ autonomous planned expenditure, resulting in a final increase in income ________ than what the government spending increase would have produced in the Chapter 3 model.

For a given level of equilibrium GDP, a tight-money/easy-fiscal policy mix compared with easy-money/tight-fiscal policy mix implies a
