After an initial shift, P adjusts and shifts the LM curve back to the
general equilibrium
Classical view: prices are exible and the adjustment process is rapid
Unexpected shifts in the IS, LM and the FE curves are the sources of
business cycles
For a constant P:
,! factors that change aggregate demand will cause the AD curve to shift
,! whenever the IS shifts, the AD curve shifts
,! whenever the LM curves shifts (for reasons other than P), the AD
curve shifts
