a. Suppose the economy is operating at its full employment level output. Does it mean that the unemployment rate is ZERO? Explain.

b. What is the difference between a recessionary gap and an inflationary gap? Explain

c. If the actual economy is operating below its full-employment long run equilibrium, then an inflationary gap will develop. If your answer yes, explain. If your answer is no, explain

1. Does the Aggregate Demand (AD) curve always slope downward? Discuss and use explanations (interest rate effect, wealth effects, open economy effect).

2. The Aggregate Supply (AS) curve slopes upward to reflect the profit motive of businesses. So, why there are two versions of the AS curve( i.e. short run and long- run). Discuss.

3. Does Aggregate Demand and Aggregate Supply always occur at full-employment level?

a) If yes, will there be some unemployment? Explain

b) If no, then the actual real GDP may be different from the potential real GDP. When the actual and potential GDP are not the same, then the economy is either in a recessionary gap or inflationary gap. Explain

Ā 

2. An increase in household wealth when the SRAS curve is upward sloping:

c. leads to an increase in both the price level and real GDP

d. has no impact on the price level or real GDP

Ā 

3. In the long run, continued increases in aggregate demand not matched by similar increases in aggregate supply will cause:

a. an increase in the full-employment level of real GDP

b. a recessionary gap

c. a decrease in the price level

d. an increase in the price level

Ā 

4. The vertical long-run aggregate supply curve implies that:

d. natural or full-employment real GDP is the same as the equilibrium real GDP in the short run

Ā 

5. A rightward shift of the long-run aggregate supply curve illustrates:

d. a decrease in natural real GDP

Ā 

6. When the economy is in a recessionary gap

a. there is a surplus of labor

b. there is a shortage of labor

Ā 

7. If the actual unemployment rate is less than the natural unemployment rate:

b. an inflationary gap exists and wages are likely to rise

c. a recessionary gap exists and wages are likely to fall

d. an inflationary gap exists and wages are likely to fall
