How would consumers who traditionally pay using cash potentially benefit from an interchange fee cap?
marshall27 [118]
The only way I can think of is that the interchange fee cap would reduce the cost of doing business for the merchant, so they might reduce their prices slightly for all customers as a result. Of course many merchants will just keep the prices the same and be happy for the extra profit in which case the consumer doesn't benefit - just the merchant.

Why the aggregate demand curve slopes downward
Serggg [28]

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.
