IS-CurveIn the IS-LM model, the curve representing the combinations of national income and interest rate at which aggregate demand equals supply for all goods. It is normally downward sloping because a rise in income increases output by more than aggregate demand (through consumption), while a rise in the interest rate reduces aggregate demand through investment.Similar MatchesYield curveYield curveA curve which plots current yields of fixed interest securities against their times to redemption (maturity). This enables investors to compare the yields of short, medium and long term securities at a given time. Demand curveDemand curveThe graph of quantity demanded as a function of price, normally downward sloping, straight or curved, and drawn with quantity on the horizontal axis and price on the vertical axis. Demand curves for imports and for foreign exchange usually have the same qualitative properties as demand curves for goods, but for somewhat different reasons. Environmental Kuznets CurveEnvironmental Kuznets CurveAn inverse U-shaped relationship hypothesized between per capita income and environmental degradation. Named after the Kuznets Curve dealing with inequality. Idea due to Grossman and Krueger (1993). Inelastic offer curveInelastic offer curveAn offer curve with inelastic demand for imports. That inelasticity implies that exports decline as imports increase, and it therefore means that the offer curve is backward bending. Strictly speaking, the natural definition of an offer curve's elasticity would be negative in this case, not just less than one, but that definition is seldom used. Positive yield curvePositive yield curveWhen long-term debt long-term debt are higher than short-term debt rates (because of the increased long-term debt involved with long-term debt long-term debt).
