Document Summary

There are two types of i s: one is growth (ig) growth investment, one is net (i net). The difference b/w them is depreciation in capital growth. Ndp (net domestic product): is the same thing but i in its equation is without depreciation. Both have the same equation but different i s y=c+i+g+nx. Our well-being as an economy does not depend on prices, but the volume of products produced is what our well-being depends on. That"s why we remove increase or decrease of prices while calculating the real gdp. You must be familiar with a flow variable and a stock variable. Flow variable is like the water in our bathtub, after a couple of hours it might be full. A flow variable is measured over a period of time. (from january to march) (savings, investments, consumptions, and incomes are measure over time. )

unemployment cannot persist for long periods of time.

the aggregate demand curve determines the price level.

A terrible winter storm causes enormous problems in the

northeastern

part of the United States. This would cause

the short-run aggregate supply curve to shift to the left, but would have no effect on the long-run aggregate supply curve.

both the short-run and the long-run aggregate supply curves to shift to the left, but the long-run aggregate supply curve would shift more than the short-run curve.
