6. Short-run equilibrium and long-run aggregate supply The following graph shows several aggregate demand and aggregate supply curves for an economy whose potential output is $5 trillion. The curves are labeled a, b, c, and d. Three points on the graph are also indicated by grey stars and labeled K, L, and M. PRICE LEVEL (CPI) 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 0 C 1 d M X a 2 3 4 5 REAL GDP (Trillions of dollars) 6 b 7 8 (?)
The short run aggregate supply curve was constructed assuming that as the price of outputs increases, the puce of inputs stays the same. How would an increase in the prices of important inputs, like energy, affect aggregate supply?
In 2013, Prussia's aggregate demand curve was determined by the equation M + 1-4% A change in aggregate demand means that in 2014, Prussia's aggregate demand curve was determined by the equation Using this information, draw Prussia's old and new dynamic aggregate demand curves on the graph Which of the factors could have resulted in the change irn aggregate demand seen between 2013 and 2014? 13 AD 2013 an improvement in technology O an increase in imports O higher consumer confidence O a decrease in oil prices 12 AD 2014 10 8 5 4 3 2 4 -3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 78 9 10 Real GDP growth rate
What might shift the aggregate-supply curve tothe left? Use the model of aggregate demand andaggregate supply to trace the short-run and long-runeffects of such a shift on output and the price level.
1. Explaining short-run economic fluctuations A majority of economists believe that in the long run, real economic variables and nominal economic variables beha independently of one another. For example, an increase in the money supply, a variable, will cause the price level, a variable, to increase but will have no long-run effect on the quantity of goods and services the economy can produce, a variabl The distinction between real variables and nominal variabl is known as ▼ However, in the short run, most economists believe that re and nominal variables are intertwined. Economists use the model of aggregate demand and aggregate supply to examine the economy's short-run fluctuations around the long-run output level. The following graph shows an incomplete short-run aggregate demand (AD) and aggrega supply (AS) diagram-it needs appropriate labels for the ax and curves.

The AI that runs your actuarial department has calculated that, at any price level, Centauri's aggregate demand has the equation AD = 0.75(Y – T) + G, where Y is real GDP, T is total taxes, I is investment and G is government spending. Everything is measured in billions of 2099 Cents (denoted C). The government reports that taxes are T = 60 and government expenditures are G = 205. a) By how much will a 10-Cent decrease in taxes T increase Aggregate Demand? b) By how much will a 10-Cent increase in government spending G increase Aggregate Demand?. c) Which policy is a more effective way to change Aggregate Demand? d) Determine a policy that will return the Centauri economy to its long-run equilibrium. That is, figure out a…
