and make sure you can put together the diagrams for the Bank of England altering the interest rate, causing change in investment, inducing a change in aggregate demand, thus resulting in a different level of GDP.

Polluter places costs on society by producing at Q1 and price P1. Better for society if produces less, at Q2 and at higher pirce P2.

Demographic transition: developing country population changes over time Birth rates & death rates

Birth rate

Death rate

0

time

Note that as the death rate plunges down, population increases rapidly. Once the birth rate has fallen sharply and levelled off, the difference between the two lines narrows again which means that population growth is no longer excessive. This is typical of what happens in many third world countries as they develop – as it happened earlier in what are now developed countries.
