Explanation of Solution

The Keynesian transmission mechanism maintains that money supply affects the aggregate demand through the changes in rate of interest or exchange rates. That is, the Keynesians maintains the indirect transmission mechanism.

Economics (Book Only), Chapter 15, Problem 1VQP

In Figure 1, panel (a), (b), and (c) represents the operation of Keynesian transmission mechanism. Panel (a) represents the money market, in which a rightward shift in the money supply from S1 to S2 reduces the rate of interest from I1 to I2. Panel (b) represents the investment goods market, in which a decrease in interest rate increases the investment. Panel (c) represents the goods and service market. Here, an increase in investment increases the total expenditure and shifts the aggregate demand curve to the right. As a result, there is an increase in real GDP from Q1to Q2. From this, it is clear that an increase in money supply affects the aggregate demand indirectly via changes in the interest rate.

Dates grow best in hot dry climates with long dry growing seasons, which these nations naturally offer. They also produce a lot of dates because of their extensive agricultural, infrastructure, and centuries-old date-growing expertise. Conversely, the U.S., there aren't many places in Canada and California that are suitable for date farming, only a select few, like the Coachella Valley, in California can produce dates on a large scale. Although California produces some dates, it is not as much as countries like Saudi Arabia and Egypt. Depending only on U.S., because of increased labor and production costs, dates grown in this way may have a limited supply and raise prices. We can obtain a greater supply of dates at competitive prices while maintaining consistent quality by…
