LM equation specified with Money demand L = 0.20 Y – 4i and money supply is $144.

IS equations for a two sector model specified as C= 90£ + 0.75 Y and I= 140£ – 5i and the second with C= 90£ + 0.75Y and I= 120£ – 3i.

    What does LM and IS means? Calculate the LM and the two IS equations.

    Plot LM and the two IS curves

    Plot the new LM equation and label it LM1 for the 15£ increase in Ms.

     Use the IS equations and find output when the Ms increases to 159£. For which IS equation is there a greater decrease in the rate of interest?

     Find investment and consumption spending when Ms is 144£ and when Ms is 159£.

     The increase in the Ms causes a shift in the LM or the IS curve? Why? And what is called?

   What happened to IS and LM curves is G increased by 10£?
