Concept Introduction:
Aggregate Demand Curve (AD): It shows how price and the quantity demanded are related to each other. The curve is negatively slopped, which means that when prices rise the quantity demanded falls.
Shift in Aggregate Demand Curve: There are several factors on which the shifting of demand curve depends. Some of them are:
- Changes in expectation: when consumers are more confident about future then AD curve shifts in the right direction and vice versa.
- Changes in wealth: when the wealth of individual increases which means real value of assets increases then the AD curve shifts in right direction and when it decreases then it shifts leftward.
- Size of stock of physical capital: when the size of stock is small then AD curve shifts rightward and vice versa.
- Fiscal policy: It includes government expenditure and taxes. When government expenditure is increased or taxes are decreased then AD curve shifts rightward and vice versa.
Monetary policy: It includes money supply changes. When money supply increases AD curve shifts rightward and vice versa.
Inflation indexed bond: It is a type of bond in which the rate of interest gets adjusted according to existing inflation in the economy.
