17) to eliminate dP/P yields the total differential of the reduced form of Y HdY = −C1 dT + dG − (C2 + I ′ qR−πe )dπ e + C2 + I ′ qR−πe ΦR M dw dM − P P w , where the coefficient on dY , now H, is given by H = 1 − C1 − I ′ qL C2 + I ′ qR−πe − FL ΦR FLL M − ΦY FL2 P . Again, under the assumption that 1 − C1 exceeds I ′ qL /FL , H is positive and the reduced form partial derivatives of Y with respect to the exogenous variables are: ∂Y C1 =− ≤ 0; ∂T H ∂Y 1 = ≥ 0; ∂G H ∂Y C2 + I ′ qR−πe = − ≥ 0; ∂π e H ∂Y C2 + I ′ qR−πe = ≥ 0; ∂M ΦR P H ∂Y (C2 + I ′ qR−πe ) M =− ≤ 0.

E An increase in government purchases or a decrease in taxes will shift the IS curve out to the right, the extent of the shift depending on the size of the relevant (Keynesian-cross model) multiplier. Also, when the expected inflation rate changes, the IS curve shifts upward by the amount of the increase in π e . The IS curve does not determine either R or Y . 4. The IS-LM Model 19 clear the goods market. To determine the equilibrium of the economy, we need another relationship between these two variables, to which we now turn.

6) where w denotes the exogenous money wage, determined outside the system. In fact, we treat w as a predetermined variable, not as one that is strictly exogenous, and we assume that it changes through time — that is, dw/dt can be nonzero. Notice that the other assumptions underlying these equations are all as they were in the classical model. Thus, the Keynesian model consists of the above six equations in the six endogenous variables: L, Y, C, I, R, and P . The exogenous variables are: M, G, T, K, π e , δ, and w, and the parameters of the model are: FK , FKK , FL , FLL , FKL , L′ , C1 , C2 , I ′ , qL , qK , qR−πe , ΦY , ΦR , and δ.
