HORIZONTAL ADDITION: In graphical analysis, the technique of combining two curves by adding the value of the variable on the horizontal or X axis for a given value of the variable on the vertical or Y axis. This is commonly done when deriving a market demand curve from a set of individual demand curves. The quantity demanded by every individual is added at a given price to identify the total market demand at that price.

Banks have two beneficial roles in the economy. First: As financial intermediaries, banks match up savers and borrowers. - They are an effective means of diverting household income into investment expenditures for capital goods.
- They are a vital link between the real and financial sides of the economy.
Second: As depository institutions, banks supervise a share of the nation's M1 money supply. - They have a big responsibility because money is critical to a complex, market-oriented economy.

REAL-BALANCE EFFECT A change in aggregate expenditures on real production made by the household, business, government, and foreign sectors that results because a change in the price level alters the purchasing power of money. This is one of three effects underlying the negative slope of the aggregate demand curve associated with a movement along the aggregate demand curve and a change in aggregate expenditures. The other two are interest-rate effect and net-export effect. The real-balance effect is somewhat analogous to the income effect underlying the negative slope of the market demand curve.
