The curve of Aggregate Demand or aggregate demand has a negative slope. Explain why the aggregate demand curve can have a negative slope.
If aggregate supply is vertical, then which of the following statements must be true?
Aggregate demand does not affect the quantity of output.
Inflation creates greater social benefits.
Inflation will accompany any rise in output.
Aggregate demand does not cause inflationary changes in price level.
"The demand curves for all products have
negative slopes. For instance, the demand
curves for milk,automobiles, personal
computers, and shirts all have negative
slopes. Therefore, because the aggregate
demand curve shows the demand for all
products, it too must have a negative slope. "
