Document Summary

Chapter 16. 1: from the short run to the long run. Short- run aggregate supply: input prices are inflexible, aggregate supply curve is upwardly sloping. Long-run aggregate supply: input prices are fully flexible, vertical aggregate supply. From the short-run as to the long run as: production above potential output: Return to potential output: production below potential output. 16. 2: applying the long-run aggregate demand-aggregate supply model. Demand- pull inflation occurs when an increase in aggregate demand pulls up the price level. In the short run, demand-pull inflation drives up prices and output. In the long run, output is restored to gdpf and only the price level is higher. Cost-push inflation arises from factors that increase the cost of production at each price level. If government attempts to maintain full employment, an inflationary spiral may occur. Otherwise, the recession will linger, with high unemployment and a loss of real output. There is disagreement among economists about this hypothetical scenario.
