There are two directions that the aggregate demand curve can shift:- An increase in aggregate demand is a rightward shift of the AD curve.
- A decrease in aggregate demand is a leftward shift of the AD curve.
And we have the AD curve shifting in two versions of the aggregate market, long run and short run. This gives us four basic curve-shifting alternatives: - An increase, with the long-run aggregate market.
- A decrease, with the long-run aggregate market.
- An increase, with the short-run aggregate market.
- A decrease, with the short-run aggregate market.
