At higher interest rate r1: MS>LP => there is a surplus of cash => the buying of bonds will increase => the demand for bonds will increase => the price of bonds will increase => the interest rate will decrease and the equilibrium will be restored. The willingness of people and firms to hold cash (prefer liquidity) is called liquidity preference (LP). This is also called demand for money (MD).Debtors who have debts with a fixed nominal rate of interest will see a reduction in the "real" interest rate as the inflation rate rises. The real interest on a loan is the nominal rate minus the inflation rate. The formula R = N-I approximates the correct answer as long as both the nominal interest rate and the inflation rate are small. The correct equation is r = n/i where r, n and i are expressed as ratios (e.g. 1.2 for +20%, 0.8 for −20%). As an example, when the inflation rate is 3%, a loan with a nominal interest rate of 5% would have a real interest rate of approximately 2% (in fact, it's 1.94%). Any unexpected increase in the inflation rate would decrease the real interest rate. Banks and other lenders adjust for this inflation risk either by including an inflation risk premium to fixed interest rate loans, or lending at an adjustable rate. This brilliant book offers a singularly clear, accessible and funny introduction to where our economic malaise has come from - and how understanding it can help any of us make better financial decisions. I cannot recommend it highly enough. IAIN DALE

Money refers to anything that is generally accepted as a medium of exchange. Types of Money Narrow Money (M0) The interest rate measured at base year prices and adjusted for inflation is called the "real interest rate." During the 1980s a group of researchers named new Keynesians emerged who accepted many originally non-Keynesian concepts like the importance of monetary policy, the existence of a natural level of unemployment and the incorporation of rational expectations formation as a reasonable benchmark. At the same time they believed, like Keynes did, that various market imperfections in different markets like labour markets and financial markets were also important to study to understand both inflation generation and business cycles. [10] :533–534 During the 1980s and 1990s, there were often heated intellectual debates between new Keynesians and new classicals, but by the 2000s, a synthesis gradually emerged. The result has been called the new Keynesian model, [10] :535 the " new neoclassical synthesis" [64] [65] or simply the "new consensus" model. [64] Current consensus [ edit ] DeLong, Brad.
