Suppose the market for loanable funds is in equilibrium,the interest rate would decrease and the quantity of loanable funds would increase

Most important factor for the interest rate over the time is changing expactation about inflation rate

Generally it decreases the demand for loanable funds, thereby increasing the nominal interest rate

in this graph we see that in inflation period the demand for the lonable fund decrese and increasing the nominal interest rate

when

b. Consumer and investor confidence grows. the demand of lonable fund increses and real interest rate would decrese

decreses in this graph we can see that when Consumer and investor confidence grows.the demand of lonable fund increses and interset rate is decreasing
