Model assumptions Two factor analysis: the only types of economic subjects

Model assumptions

Two factor analysis: the only types of economic subjects are

domestic households and firms (H and F)
Crisis circumstances: there are production factors that are not used (actual production is smaller than potential production)
Price stability: short-run approach (short enough to assume that prices don’t change)
One dimension: the subject of the analyses is the market for goods and services

The essence of aggregate demand Aggregate demand (AD): sum of expenditures

The essence of aggregate demand

Aggregate demand (AD): sum of expenditures for

various goods and services that are planned at various levels of current income (Y).
Consumption (C): expenditures for consumption goods planned by households.
Investment (I): expenditures for investment goods (including inventory) planned by firms.
AD = C + I
Слайд 8

Consumption component of AD Two things concerning „C” must be noted:

Consumption component of AD

Two things concerning „C” must be noted:
it is

directly dependent on households’ income
it can be financed not only by current income but also by past or future income
The relationship between „C” and current income can be presented as marginal propensity to consume (MPC).
The part of „C” which is independent of current income is known as autonomous consumption (CA).
Слайд 9

Marginal propensity to consume Marginal propensity to consume (MPC): the fraction

Marginal propensity to consume
Marginal propensity to consume (MPC): the fraction of

the additional current income which households are going to spend on additional consumption.
MPC = ΔC/ΔY

Autonomous consumption Autonomous consumption (CA): the part of consumption that is

Autonomous consumption
Autonomous consumption (CA): the part of consumption that is not

financed by current income (consumption that does not depend on current income).
Yet, it can be covered by past income (i.e. saving) or future income (i.e. borrowing).

Notice that MPC and CA are key variables in consumption

function formula:
1) MPC is responsible for the slope
2) CA is responsible for the intercept point (and the parallel shifts of the line).
Слайд 12

Technical note Changes in nouseholds’ current income result in shifts along

Technical note

Changes in nouseholds’ current income result in shifts along the

consumpion line.
Changes in the autonomous consumption result in parallel movements of the consumption line.
Changes in MPC result in the different angle of the consumption line.

Saving Saving means unconsumed income. Y = C + S C

Saving

Saving means unconsumed income.
Y = C + S
C = MPC×Y +

S = MPS×Y – CA
Marginal propensity to save (MPS): the fraction of the additional current income which households are going to save.

Notice that saving function is the mirror reflection of the

Investment component of AD

Outstanding variability
Independent of

the current state of the economy (including current income); in that sense they’re fully autonomous
Dependent on factors such as:
expectations concerning future terms of business
interest rates

45 degrees line

At any point on the 45° line the distance

to the horizontal axis is the same as the distance to the vertical axis.
The 45° line joins points at which AD (demand) equals Y (supply).

Check point: the meaning of „Y”

So far the letter „Y” was

using to denote „income”.
From now on it will be used to denote not only „income” but also „production”.
How can we justify such decision?

Equilibrium & equilibrium output
Equilibrium output (YE): the level of GDP at

which the aggregate demand for output equals the amount that is produced.

Investment multiplier

Investment multiplier: a measure that informs how many times the

change in the equilibrium output (that is reaction to the change in investment) will be greater than the change in invesment.
M = ΔYE/ΔI = 1/(1 – MPC)

Check point: true / false test The Keynesian model assumes that

Check point: true / false test

The Keynesian model assumes that the

production is basically determined by the demand.
Sum of marginal propensity to consume and marginal propensity to save equals 1.
Planned saving is always the same as planned investment.
The slope of the consumption function depends solely on the autonomous consumption.
Consumption is zero when the income at households’ disposal is also zero
Слайд 33

Check point: true / false test (cont.) The relation of consumption

Check point: true / false test (cont.)

The relation of consumption planned

by households to their income at disposal is named marginal propensity to consume.
The higher marginal propensity to consume, the more steep aggregate demand line.
Investment is inversely dependent on the interest rate.
Change in investment always causes shifts of AD line down.
Investment multiplier equals 1/marginal propensity to save
