AD CURVE: The aggregate demand curve, which is 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, or AD, curve is one side of the graphical presentation of the aggregate market. The other side is occupied by the aggregate supply curve (which is actually two curves, the long-run aggregate supply curve and 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 effect, real-balance effect, and net-export effect.

Topic: Plot <=PAGE BACK | PAGE NEXT=>

We can transform the schedule of production possibility numbers into a graph.
  • Each bundle can be represented by a point in two dimensional production possibilities space.
  • The two dimensions of the space are clock calibrators on the horizontal axis and jogging shoes on the vertical axis.
  • The horizontal axis is measured between 0 and 11 calibrators.
  • The vertical axis is measured between 0 and 500 jogging shoes.
  • The two axis are joined at the origin.
  • The plotted bundles form a semi-circle pattern.
  • If these were stars in the night sky we might name it the arc of production. But it's not, so we won't.

EQUITY

This has two, not totally unrelated, uses in economics--one of five economic goals and ownership of an asset. As an economic goal, one of the two microeconomic goals, achieving equity means that income and wealth are distributed in a fair manner. What is meant by "fair" is subject to continuing debate. As ownership, equity typically refers to the ownership of a corporation, especially corporate stock. An equity market, as such, is another term for a stock market that trades ownership stock of corporations.
