AGGREGATE DEMAND CURVE
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 (AD) curve
is one side of the graphical presentation of the
aggregate market. The other side is occupied by the
long-run aggregate supply curve and/or 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, real-balance, and net-export effects.

The Crystal
Ball Of ECONOMIC FORECASTING

tasty picnic lunch, donned your spiffy-looking swimwear,
loaded up the beach blanket and umbrella, then headed
for the artificial waves of the local Happy-Time
Gala-World Fun-Land Water Park expecting bright sunshine
and warm temperatures. However, upon reaching Happy-Time
Gala-World Fun-Land Water Park you find that the economy
has fallen into a deep recession, with high unemployment
rates and sluggish production, and the owners of the
Happy-Time Gala-World Fun-Land Water Park have been
forced to turn off the artificial wave machine,
dismantle the water slides, and drain the pool. (It's
also raining and 50 degrees. We will, however, ignore
those problems because this isn't A Pedestrian's Guide
to Meteorology.) Tell

CHIPPEROON [What's
This?]
Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time
visiting every yard sale in a 30-mile radius looking to
buy either a wall poster commemorating the 2000
Presidential election or a rechargeable flashlight. Be
on the lookout for malfunctioning pocket
calculators. Your
