Aggregate money demand is?
the total amount of demand for money by all households and firms in the economy
What are the three factors that deterine the aggregate money demand?
Intreste rate, price level, and real national income
If R appreciate
M depreciate
R ?
Intreste rate
If P appreciate
M appreciate
If Y appreciate
M appreciate
M (demand) = ?
P x L(R,Y)
By equalibirum in the money market this equation holds true
M (supply) / P = L (R, Y)
Real money supply
M (supply) / P
If M(s) increases then, how does the schedule in the money market change
