The IS ( investment and savings) schedule is a locus of points giving all the combinations of interest rate and income at which the goods market is in equilibrium‚ ceteris paribus. The IS curve is downward sloping because as interest rates fall‚ investment increases‚ thus increasing output. The steepness of the slope depends upon the sensitivity of investment to interest rate changes. The more interest sensitive the investment‚ the more interest sensitive the IS curve‚ i.e. the flatter the IS curve
