In the loanable funds model, the supply curve is upward sloping because:___.
a. the higher the real interest rate, the greater the reward to saving and hence the larger the quantity of funds households will save.
b. a higher real interest rate increases the foreign exchange value of the dollar, which reduces net exports and, as a consequence, increases the quantity of foreign saving available to the domestic loanable funds market.
c. an increase in the real interest rate increases government saving by inducing governments to curtail spending, thereby reducing budget deficits or increasing surpluses.
d. All of the above.
e. A and B but not C.
