Aggregate Demand Mind Map: Key Branches
An aggregate demand mind map shows the total planned spending on final goods and services in an economy at each price level. Aggregate demand is built from four parts: consumption, investment, government purchases and net exports. Its curve slopes downward because of the wealth effect, the interest rate effect and the exchange rate effect. A good map links these parts to the factors that move the curve.
- Consumption (C): household spending on goods and services, driven by income and wealth
- Investment (I): business spending on capital, inventories and new housing
- Government (G): federal, state and local purchases of goods and services
- Net exports (NX): exports minus imports, sensitive to exchange rates
- AD shifters: changes in confidence, taxes, money supply and foreign demand
Use the map to review how a shock to one component shifts the whole curve. To build a version tailored to your own course notes, create your map with CogniGuide.

Aggregate Demand Mind Map Questions
Common questions about the AD model and how to map it.
What is the formula for aggregate demand?
Aggregate demand is written as AD = C + I + G + NX. Each letter stands for consumption, investment, government purchases and net exports. Changes in any component shift the AD curve.
Why does the aggregate demand curve slope downward?
At lower price levels, the real value of wealth rises, interest rates fall and exports become cheaper. Together these effects increase the quantity of output demanded.
Which file types can I use to make my own AD map?
You can upload PDF, Word (DOCX) and PowerPoint (PPTX) files, text or Markdown files, or images. You can also just type the topic.
Can I turn my aggregate demand map into a quiz?
Yes. CogniGuide can turn a map into a quiz to test yourself, and the same notes can also become flashcards. The free plan includes 5 creations a week.
