One channel by which government spending crowds out private spending is the interest rate channel. Explain in words what this channel is and illustrate the effect using the goods market equilibrium graph and investment and consumption demand graphs.
Homework Answers
In a nutshell, crowding out of private investment can occur through interest rate when the government borrows a lot of money which raises the interest rates. Government mainly borrows to increase spending.
At unchanged interest rate, higher levels of government spending raises the aggregate demand. To meet this demand, output must rise.
When we look at the ISLM framework, IS curve shifts towards right. Increase in interest rate drives away private borrowing and investment. The output which should have been increased from Y0 to Y2 , only increases to Y1 because of this effect.
Private investment in the economy falls. As spending inceases
AD, price level and output rise.
