Assumptions of the IS-LM Model


Assumptions of the IS-LM model:

1. Yf is a constant.

2. An unemployment of resources.-- The model is to find out determinants of the equilibrium GNP and ways to eliminate unemployment.

3. GNP = GDP = Y.

4. Price level is kept constant.-- Nominal variables = real variables and nominal r = real r.

What is the IS Curve?


IS Curve is a line relating real national income (Y) to real interest rate (r) at which the goods market is in equilibrium (i.e., with Y = E or J = W).

What is the LM Curve?


What is the LM Curve?

LM curve is a line relating real national income (Y) to real interest rate (r) at which the money market is in equilibrium [i.e.,with real money demand (Md) or real liquidity preference (L) = real money supply (Ms)].


Graphical derivation of the LM Curve


Transactions demand for money:

d is the change in Mt resulting from a unit change in income.

Income & Mt are positively related & so d > 0.

Mt = dY

Income elasticity of transactions demand for money


Asset demand for money:

e is the change in Ma resulting from a unit change in r e < 0

Ma = e r + Ma*

Interest elasticity of asset demand for money

Autonomous asset demand for money

Ma* is the autonomous asset demand for money

Ma* > 0

Mathematical derivation of the IS-LM equilibrium

In a four sector economy, E = C + I + G + X – M

1. Mathematical derivation of the IS curve

where C = cYd+C*;

Yd= Y-tY-T*+qY+Q*;

I = br+I*+iY;

G= G*;

X = X*;

M = mY+M*


Mathematical derivation of equil. income & multiplier

Y = cYd+C* +br+I*+iY + G* +X*-mY-M*

Y = c(Y-tY-T*+qY+Q*)+C* +br+I*+iY +G*+X*-mY-M*

(1–c-i+ct-cq+m)•Y = C*+ I*+ G*+ X*-M*-cT*+cQ* +br

Correcting Misconceptions:

1. The IS curve represents situations with I = S.

2. Whenever J or W, the IS curve shifts rightward or upward.

3. Whenever Md or Ms, the LM curve shifts leftward or upward.
