Which of the following statement is false ?

  • A.The IS curve is flatter, lower the value of the Keynesian multiplier and lower the interest resistiveness of investment.
  • B.The IS curve is steeper lower the value of the Keynesian multiplier and lower the interest resistiveness of investment.
  • C.The position of LM curve depends negatively on the price level and the resistiveness of the money demand to the changes in income.
  • D.The LM curve is flatter, the larger the interest resistiveness of the money demand and the lower the income resistiveness of the money demand.

Answer: A

The first statement is false. The IS curve is flatter when the Keynesian multiplier is larger and when investment is more responsive to the interest rate, not when the multiplier is lower and investment is less responsive.

The second statement states it correctly, that the IS curve is steeper with a lower multiplier and a lower interest responsiveness. The statements about the LM curve are also correct standard results, so the one that reverses the IS relationship is the false statement.
