Explain what an aggregate demand curve is and what it represents.

Describe why the aggregate demand curve has a negative slope due to the wealth, export, and interest rate effects.

List the determinants of aggregate demand.

Analyze the aggregate supply curve and differentiate between the short run and long run.

The Production Possibilities Model:

The short-run or Keynesian perspective assumes the PPF is fixed and the business cycle occurs as we move from the PPF to inside the PPF and back.

Expansions and Contractions given existing productive capacity

The Production Possibilities Model:

The long-run or Neoclassical perspective seeks to shift the PPF outward over time.

Generate economic growth by expanding the productive capacity

PPFA

Short-run expansion is shown as a movement toward a PPF, while long-run growth is shown as an expansion of the PPF.

Short-run expansions and contractions can be explained by changes in expenditures in the product market.

The Aggregate Demand and Aggregate Supply Model:

Output, employment, and prices are determined by the interaction of total spending and production in the economy.

A higher aggregate price causes lower aggregate output.

Aggregate demand slopes down because of the wealth effect, export price effect, and interest rate effect.

CHAPTER 20

AGGREGATE DEMAND

SLIDE 16

Export price effect: As prices rise, exports become more expensive, and exports drop.

Interest rate effect: As prices rise, people hold more money, pushing interest rates higher, reducing business investment.

Wealth effect: As prices rise, purchasing power of wealth falls, reducing consumption.

DETERMINANTS OF AGGREGATE DEMAND

SLIDE 17

The determinants of aggregate demand are factors that shift the entire AD curve when they change:

Consumption

Investment

Government spending

Net exports

Money Supply

Why AD changes depends on your perspective:

The Keynesian short-run perspective says AD changes because of changes in spending; C, I, G, and NX.

The Neoclassical long-run perspective says AD changes because of changes in the money supply.

CHAPTER 20

LONG-RUN AGGREGATE SUPPLY

In the long run, the aggregate supply curve is vertical.

This incorporates the approach of neoclassical economic analysis, which assume that all wages and prices are adjustable in the long run.

SLIDE 22

In the long run, the economy will gravitate toward full employment.

CHAPTER 20

22

SHIFTING THE LRAS CURVE

The position of the LRAS curve depends on the economy’s capacity:

Amount of available resources

The quality of the labor force

Available technology

SLIDE 23

Full employment depends on the PPF which determines the position of the LRAS curve.

CHAPTER 20

23

SHIFTING THE LRAS CURVE

Rightward shifts in LRAS can occur when:

technology improves: automation, digitalization.

labor quality is enhanced; more people pursue higher education.

trade and globalization increase.

SLIDE 24

Increasing the LRAS means an outward shift of the PPF which takes time.

SHORT-RUN AGGREGATE SUPPLY

In the short run, the aggregate supply curve is upward sloping.

Keynesians assume input prices (such as wages) are slow to change; they are sticky.

When product prices rise but input prices are sticky, profits increase and firms produce more, resulting in a short-run increase in aggregate output.

AGGREGATE PRICE LEVEL (P)

AGGREGATE OUTPUT (Q)

SRAS is positively sloped because input costs are slow to change. (they are sticky.)

DETERMINANTS OF SRAS

The determinants of the short-run aggregate supply curve are:

quantity

quality of resources

technology and productivity.

changes in input prices.

taxes and regulation.

market power of firms.

inflationary expectations.

MACROECONOMIC EQUILIBRIUM

Combining the AD and AS curves allows us to think about the short run and long run effects of changes in the economy:

Output, employment, and the price level are determined by the intersection of the AD and AS curves; macroeconomic equilibrium.

It is possible to have a short-run equilibrium without a long-run equilibrium:

Changes in the AD or the SRAS can result in production and employment that are above or below full employment.

ABUNDANT SNOWFALL AND RISING INCOMES HAVE LED TO RECORD SKI INDUSTRY INCOME. HOW DOES THIS AFFECT THE MACROECONOMY?

SLIDE 46

PRACTICE QUESTION

ERIC CHIANG

CHAPTER 20

Answer: If increased demand in the ski industry is indicative of the overall economy (more spending for all goods and services), then AD shifts to the right. However, if skiing substitutes for other trips (like beach vacations), then the impact is less certain. An increase in AD will increase aggregate output, either toward full employment (if the economy was previously below full employment), or above full employment, which may lead to demand-pull inflation.
