Planned Investment and the Interest Rate

Planned investment spending is a negative function of the interest rate.
An increase in the interest rate from 3 percent to 6 percent reduces planned investment from I0 to I1.

Planned Investment and the Interest Rate
Other Determinants of Planned Investment
The assumption that planned investment depends only on the interest
rate is obviously a simplification, just as is the assumption that
consumption depends only on income.
PART III The Core of Macroeconomic Theory
In practice, the decision of a firm on how much to invest depends on,
among other things, its expectation of future sales.
The optimism or pessimism of entrepreneurs about the future course
of the economy can have an important effect on current planned
investment.
Keynes used the phrase animal spirits to describe the feelings of
entrepreneurs, and he argued that these feelings affect investment
decisions.

PART III The Core of Macroeconomic Theory
We know how a firm’s
investment decisions
depend on the
interest rate.
In the recession of
2008–2009 some
firms—especially
small ones—were
discouraged from
investing, not by high
interest rates, but by
the general
unwillingness of
banks to lend them
money at all.

Planned Investment and the Interest Rate
Planned Aggregate Expenditure and the Interest Rate
We can use the fact that planned investment depends on the interest
rate to consider how planned aggregate expenditure (AE) depends on
the interest rate.
PART III The Core of Macroeconomic Theory
Recall that planned aggregate expenditure is the sum of consumption,
planned investment, and government purchases.
That is,

AE ≡ C + I + G

Planned Aggregate Expenditure and the Interest Rate
 FIGURE 12.2 The Effect of an Interest Rate Increase on Planned Aggregate Expenditure
An increase in the interest rate from 3 percent to 6 percent lowers planned
aggregate expenditure and thus reduces equilibrium income from Y0 to Y1.

Planned Investment and the Interest Rate
Planned Aggregate Expenditure and the Interest Rate
The effects of a change in the interest rate include:
A high interest rate (r) discourages planned investment (I).
PART III The Core of Macroeconomic Theory
Planned investment is a part of planned aggregate expenditure (AE).
Thus, when the interest rate rises, planned aggregate expenditure
(AE) at every level of income falls.
Finally, a decrease in planned aggregate expenditure lowers
equilibrium output (income) (Y) by a multiple of the initial decrease in
planned investment.

Equilibrium in Both the Goods and Money Markets: The IS-LM Model
An increase in the interest rate (r) decreases output (Y) in the goods market
because an increase in r lowers planned investment.
When income (Y) increases, this shifts the money demand curve to the right,
which increases the interest rate (r) with a fixed money supply.
PART III The Core of Macroeconomic Theory
We can thus write:
Y  M  r 

Expansionary Policy Effects
expansionary fiscal policy An increase in government
spending or a reduction in net taxes aimed at increasing
aggregate output (income) (Y).

(brought about by the increased
interest rate) then shifts the

interest sensitivity or insensitivity of planned investment The
responsiveness of planned investment spending to changes in the
interest rate. Interest sensitivity means that planned investment
spending changes a great deal in response to changes in the
interest rate; interest insensitivity means little or no change in
planned investment as a result of changes in the interest rate.

The Aggregate Demand (AD) Curve
PART III The Core of Macroeconomic Theory
aggregate demand (AD) curve A curve that shows the
negative relationship between aggregate output (income) and the
price level. Each point on the AD curve is a point at which both
the goods market and the money market are in equilibrium.

The Aggregate Demand (AD) Curve
The Aggregate Demand Curve: A Warning
It is important that you realize what the aggregate demand curve
represents.
PART III The Core of Macroeconomic Theory
The aggregate demand curve is more complex than a simple
individual or market demand curve.
The AD curve is not a market demand curve, and it is not the sum of
all market demand curves in the economy.
To understand what the aggregate demand curve represents, you
must understand the interaction between the goods market and the
money markets.

The Aggregate Demand (AD) Curve
Other Reasons for a Downward-Sloping Aggregate Demand Curve
The Consumption Link
PART III The Core of Macroeconomic Theory
The consumption link provides another reason for the AD
curve’s downward slope.
An increase in the price level increases the demand for money,
which leads to an increase in the interest rate, which leads to a
decrease in consumption (as well as planned investment),
which leads to a decrease in aggregate output (income).
The initial decrease in consumption (brought about by the
increase in the interest rate) contributes to the overall
decrease in output.

Other Reasons for a Downward-Sloping Aggregate Demand Curve
The Real Wealth Effect

real wealth, or real balance, effect The change
in consumption brought about by a change in real
wealth that results from a change in the price level.

The Aggregate Demand (AD) Curve
Shifts of the Aggregate Demand Curve from Policy Variables
PART III The Core of Macroeconomic Theory
 FIGURE 12.7 The Effect of an Increase in
Money Supply on the AD Curve
An increase in the money supply (Ms)
causes the aggregate demand curve to shift
to the right, from AD0 to AD1.
This shift occurs because the increase in Ms
lowers the interest rate, which increases
planned investment (and thus planned
aggregate expenditure).
The final result is an increase in output at
each possible price level.

The Aggregate Demand (AD) Curve
Shifts of the Aggregate Demand Curve from Policy Variables
PART III The Core of Macroeconomic Theory
 FIGURE 12.8 The Effect of an Increase in
Government Purchases or a Decrease in Net
Taxes on the AD Curve
An increase in government purchases (G)
or a decrease in net taxes (T) causes the
aggregate demand curve to shift to the right,
from AD0 to AD1.
The increase in G increases planned
aggregate expenditure, which leads to an
increase in output at each possible price
level.
A decrease in T causes consumption to rise.
The higher consumption then increases
planned aggregate expenditure, which
leads to an increase in output at each
possible price level.

Looking Ahead: Determining the Price Level
Our discussion of aggregate output (income) and the interest rate in the goods
and money markets is now complete. You should have a good understanding of
how the two markets work together.
PART III The Core of Macroeconomic Theory
The AD curve is a useful summary of this analysis in that every point on the
curve corresponds to equilibrium in both the goods and money markets for the
given value of the price level.
We have not yet, however, determined the price level. This is the task of the
next chapter.

The IS-LM Diagram
The IS-LM diagram is a useful way of seeing the effects of changes in

the interest rate through shifts in the two curves.
PART III The Core of Macroeconomic Theory
Always keep in mind the economic theory that lies behind the two curves.
Do not memorize what curve shifts when; be able to understand and
explain why the curves shift.
This means going back to the behavior of households and firms in the
goods and money markets.
