The effects of monetary changes are influenced by the slopes of the investment demand and money demand curves such that the
A.steeper the MD and ID curves, the greater the effect on interest rates and investment.
B.steeper the MD curve and the flatter the ID curve, the greater the effect on interest rates and investment.
C.flatter the MD and ID curves, the greater the effect on interest rates and investment.
D.money supply curve is vertical so only the slope of the ID curve matters.
E.flatter the MD curve and the steeper the ID curve, the greater the effect on interest rates and investment.
Answer : Option C is correct. The slope of investment demand is flatter as compared to slope of money demand curve because the flatter the curve the greater is the effect on interest and investment. It means that as effect of monetary Change in the flatter of an investment curve as they more sensitive to the interest rate.

2. Which of the following statements about aggregate demand is (are) correct? (x) The wealth effect helps explain the slope of the aggregate demand curve. This effect is relatively unimportant in the United States because money holdings are a small part of consumer wealth. (y) The interest-rate effect depends on the idea that increases in interest rates decrease the quantity of goods and services demanded. The interest-rate effect is the most important reason, in the case of the United States,...
The interest-rate-based approach to the monetary policy transmission mechanism says that a change in the money supply influences aggregate demand by A: a change in interest rates, which changes investment. B: a change in interest rates, which changes the money supply. C: changing consumer consumption behavior as they adjust to a change in the number of dollars available. D: leading to shifts of the short-run aggregate supply curve.
