(a) When the goods and money markets are in equilibrium, the real GDP is determined by the intersection of the IS and LM curves (Burda & Wyplosz 2003). In this part of the essay, I shall derive the IS and LM curves algebraically and then represent it on a graph for clarity. For equilibrium in the goods market to occur, the desired demand (DD) should equal the output, (DD=Y) such that the change in Y equals to zero in equilibrium. Given that S, the nominal exchange rate is equal to unity implies that S = 1. In the closed economy exports are excluded and so, Y = C + I + G. I will however include S in my calculation of the IS and LM curves in the closed economy. DD = Y = 3000 + 0.8(Y-T) +G-100i -500S where the 3000 represents autonomous expenditure; G = T = 3000.
