" The LM curve shows the combinations of interest rates and levels of real income for which the money market is in equilibrium.
The LM function is the set of equilibrium points between the liquidity preference ( or Demand for Money ) function and the money supply function ( as determined by banks and central banks ).
Mathematically, the LM curve is defined by the equation, where the supply of money is represented as the real amount M / P ( as opposed to the nominal amount M ), with P representing the price level, and L being the real demand for money, which is some function of the interest rate i and the level Y of real income.
The LM curve shows the combinations of interest rates and levels of real income for which money supply equals money demand — that is, for which the money market is in equilibrium.
Recalling that for the LM curve, the interest rate is plotted against real GDP ( whereas the liquidity preference and money supply functions plot interest rates against the quantity of cash balances ), an increase in GDP shifts the liquidity preference function rightward and hence raises the interest rate.
The IS / LM model also allows for the role of monetary policy.
Starting from one point on the aggregate demand curve, at a particular price level and a quantity of aggregate demand implied by the IS-LM model for that price level, if one considers a higher potential price level, in the IS-LM model the real money supply M / P will be lower and hence the LM curve will be shifted higher, leading to lower aggregate demand ; hence at the higher price level the level of aggregate demand is lower, so the aggregate demand curve is negatively sloped.
