AGGREGATE DEMAND DETERMINANT: A ceteris paribus factor that affects aggregate demand, but which is assumed constant when the aggregate demand curve is constructed. Changes in any of the aggregate demand determinants cause the aggregate demand curve to shift. While a wide variety of specific ceteris paribus factors can cause the aggregate demand curve to shift, it's usually most convenient to group them into the four, broad expenditure categories -- consumption, investment, government purchases, and net exports. The reason is that changes in these expenditures are the direct cause of shifts in the aggregate demand curve. If any determinant affects aggregate demand it MUST affect one of these four expenditures.

Page: 5 of 22
|
The aggregate market is designed to explain the macroeconomy's price level and real production.- Aggregate demand is the relation between expenditures on real production and the price level.
- Aggregate supply is the relation between the supply of real production and the price level--short run and long run.
- The aggregate market identifies suitable values for the price level and real production that keep the aggregate economy--buyers and sellers--satisfied.
- The aggregate market helps us to analyze and understand the macroeconomy.
We are primarily concerned with the problems of inflation and unemployment.
