Why the aggregate demand curve slopes downward

Business
1 answer:
Serggg [28]3 years ago

Answer:

1. As the price level rises, the cost of borrowing money will <u>rise</u>, causing the quantity of output demanded to <u>fall</u>.

This phenomenon is known as the <u>Interest rate</u> effect.

When price levels rise, people will have to spend more on goods and services and hence save less. As they save less there'll be less loanable funds in the economy which will force interest rates (cost of borrowing) up. As there are less loans to give out and higher rates, people will borrow less and as a result will not demand as much because they can't afford it.

2. Additionally, as the price level rises, the impact on the domestic interest rate will cause the real value of the dollar to <u>rise</u> in foreign exchange markets. The number of domestic products purchased by foreigners (exports) will therefore <u>fall</u>, and the number of foreign products purchased by domestic consumers and firms (imports) will <u>rise</u>. Net exports will therefore <u>fall</u>, causing the quantity of domestic output demanded to <u>fall</u>. This phenomenon is known as the <u>exchange rate</u> effect.

As interest rates rise in the Economy, it will make the country a more attractive place to invest for foreigners so they will demand more of the local currency. This will cause a rise in the value of the domestic currency. This will make the exports of the country more expensive so less people outside will buy it but it will also make foreign products seem cheaper so the local consumers will import more.

denis-greek [22]

Answer: Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Correct Option: Lower than his opportunity cost of that good.

Opportunity cost is the benefit that is foregone for an individual by choosing one alternative over other alternatives available to him.

If the opportunity cost is lower for an individual then this will benefit him whereas if the opportunity cost is higher then this will not benefit the individuals.

In our case, if people obtained a good at a price that is lower than his opportunity cost of that good then he will be benefited from the trade.

saw5 [17]
The member of the trust board would owe his/her fiduciary responsibility to the community of Hershey.

Milton S. Hershey was the creator of the company, hence the very reason you would be in this position right now. As such, the legacy of Mr. Hershey would affect your thinking such that you act in the best interests of the company to allow it to grow further and larger, as this is what its founder would have wanted.
