  4. Demand for Money • Downward sloping

  5. Supply of Money • Fixed in the short run • Vertical line at M* MS Interest Rate (r) Quantity of Money M*

  6. Money Market • Short-run interest rates • Determined by S&D for money • Assumes: • Opportunity cost of money = interest rate • Inflation = 0% • Money supply fixed in short-run

  7. Money Market Equilibrium

  19. Putting Things Together… • Interest rates in the short run… S1 MS1 MS2 r r S2 E1 E1 r1 r1 E2 E2 r2 r2 MD1 D Quantity of $ Quantity of $ M1 M2 Q1 Q2 Changes in MS = Changes in r

  20. Putting Things Together… • Interest rates in the long run… S1 MS2 r r S2 E3 E1 r1 r1 MD2 E2 E2 r2 r2 MD1 D Quantity of $ Quantity of $ M2 Q1 Q2 Changes in MS ≠ Changes in r
