Document Summary
Chapter 12 aggregate demand and aggregate supply. Aggregate demand-aggregate supply monel the macroeconomic model that uses aggregate demand and aggregate supply to explain price level and real domesic output. Aggregate demand: is a schedule or curve that shows the amounts of real output (real gdp) that buyers collecively desire to purchase at each possible price level. The downsloping aggregate demand curve ad indicates an inverse relaionship between the price level and the amount of real output purchased. It slopes downward because of: (1) the real-balances efect (2) the interest-rate efect (3) the foreign-trade efect. Price level goes up, real gdp goes down. Price level goes down, real gdp goes up. A change in the price level (m/p ) = (m/p) = real gdp . Price -> interest -> investment -> real gdp . A change in the price level causes a change in export. Price -> export -> net export -> real gdp .
