Suppose a computer virus disables the nation's automatic teller machines, making withdrawals from bank accounts less convenient. As a result, people want to keep more cash on hand, increasing the demand for money.
Assume the Fed does not change the money supply. According to the theory of liquidity preference, the interest rate will , which causes aggregate demand to .
If instead the Fed wants to stabilize aggregate demand, it should the money supply by government bonds.

Which explains correctly the sequence of effects and the effect of the cut in money supply on aggregate demand? 1. We start with the money market equilibrium. The money supply curve shifts to the right and the rate of interest rises. This will decrease real investment that we can see from the Investment demand function. The AE curve will move down as investment (Ibar) declines. This will shift the AD to the left. 2. We start with the money market equilibrium. The money supply curve shifts to the left and the rate of interest rises. This will increase real investment that we can see from the Investment demand function. The AE curve will move down as investment (Ibar) declines. This will shift the AD to the left. 3. We start with the money market equilibrium.
