John Maynard Keynes (1883 - 1946)
!
Father of Macroeconomics !
The General Theory of Employment,
Interest and Money !
The ideas of economists and political philosophers are more powerful than commonly understood; indeed the world is ruled by little else.
Theory of Liquidity Preference
Interest rates adjust to bring money supply and money demanded into
balance
Interest Rates
Nominal = Real + Inflation !
If inflation is zero, then nominal = real

Rate
Liquidity Theory1. Money Supply is fixed by central bank with policy tools (Debt Instrument Market, Discount Rate, Reserve Requirement)
2. Money Demand - Liquidity - Interest rate is the opportunity cost of holding money.
3. Equilibrium pressures

Fiscal Policies
Level of government spending and taxing
Multiplier Effect
Additional shifts in aggregate demand due to expansionary government
spending
Marginal Propensity to Consume MPC
New income = spend + save How much do you spend?
75 percent Then you will be saving 25 percent
Marginal Propensity to Consume plus
Marginal Propensity to Save equals one
!
MPC + MPS = 1 1- MPS = MPC 1- MPC = MPS

Multiplier !
1/(1-MPC) !
Remember 1-MPC = MPS
Therefore Multiplier
also 1/MPS

Multiplier Effect
1. Works with C, I, G, and NX 2. Goes both ways
Where does the money come from?
Tax Borrow
Reduces Income Increases interest
Crowding-Out can be larger than the
Multiplier
Aggregate Demand shifts left
Crowding-out Effect
Offsetting aggregate demand when fiscal
expansion raises interest rates and reduces spending
