_____15.     Unlike the LM Curve which shows points of equilibrium in the money market, the IS curve shows points of equilibrium in the:

Explanation / Answer

12. LM schedule downward to the right.

   Explanation: The LM curve, the equilibrium points in the market for money, shifts for two reasons: changes in money demand and changes in the money supply. If the money supply increases (decreases), ceteris paribus, the interest rate is lower (higher) at each level of Y, or in other words, the LM curve shifts right (left).

13. All statements are true.

14. money demand and money supply.

15. output market.
