HARD PEG: Establishing a fixed exchange rate between one national currency (usually that of a small country) and another national currency (usually that of an industrial power). One country, in other words, "pegs" the value of its currency to the value of another currency. This is commonly done by countries with a history of monetary instability is used as a means of restoring and maintaining order. This U.S. dollar is frequently used for a hard peg by other smaller nations. The result of a hard peg is to eliminate control by the pegging nation and relying on the actions of the targeting nation.

Lesson 10: Gross Domestic Product | Unit 3: Two Views of GDP
|
Page: 15 of 25
|
The four sectors of the economy buy ALL current economic production and when aggregated give us GDP. The four sectors and their expenditures: - Household: Consumption (C).
- Business: Investment (I).
- Government: Government Expenditures (G).
- Foreign: Net Exports (X-M), the difference between Exports (X) and Imports (I).
Expenditures on GDP: GDP = C + I + G + (X-M)- C, I and G buy not just domestic goods and services, but also imports.
- When we aggregate C, I, G and X we have domestic production plus imports. To measure only domestic production, we subtract imports (M).

AGGREGATE DEMAND CURVE A graphical representation of the relation between aggregate expenditures on real production and the price level, holding all ceteris paribus aggregate demand determinants constant. The aggregate demand (AD) curve is one side of the graphical presentation of the aggregate market. The other side is occupied by the long-run aggregate supply curve and/or the short-run aggregate supply curve. The negative slope of the aggregate demand curve captures the inverse relation between aggregate expenditures on real production and the price level. This negative slope is attributable to the interest-rate, real-balance, and net-export effects.
