AD-AS Flashcards
What is aggregate supply
Is the relationship between the quantity of real GDP supplied and the price level
What is long run aggregate supply
The relationship between the quantity of real GDP supplied and the price level when real GDP is equal to potential GDP
What is long run aggregate supply
The relationship between the quantity of real GDP supplied and the price level when real GDP is equal to potential GDP
What is short-run aggregate suppl6
Is the relationship between the quantity of real GDP supplied and the price level when the money wage rate, prices of other resources, and potential GDP remain constant
When does AS change
Changes if an influence on production plans other than price level changes
What are the 2 influences that change assregate supply
- Change in potential GDP
- Chafe in money wage rate (and other factor prices)
What are the 3 reasons that cause potential GDP to change
- An increase in the full employment quantity of labor
- An increase in capital (both physical and human )
- An advance in technology
What happens to LAS and SAS if potential GDP increase
They also increase, and shift rightward
What happens to LAS and SAS if potential GDP increase
They also increase, and shift rightward
What happens to LAS and SAS if money wage rate rises
LAS is unchanged
SAS decreases and shifts leftward
Buying plans depend on many factors, what are the 4 main ones
Expectations
Price level
Fiscal policy and monetary policy
The world economy
What are the two main reasons that an AD curve sloped downward
Wealth effect
Substitution effects
How does weath effect work
Other things remaining the same, an increase in price level
Decreases real wealth (money, stocks, etc)
And to restore their wealth people, increase saving and decrease spending
And the quantity of real expenditure decreases
How does intertemporal substitution work
Other things remaining the same, an increase in price level
Decreases the real value of money
And raises the interest rate
When the interest rate rises, people borrow and spend less
And this decreases the quantity of real GDP demanded
How does international substitution effect work
Other things remaining the same, a rise in price level
Increases the price of domestic goods relative to foreign goods
And this increases imports and decreases exports
And decreases the quantity of real GDP demanded
