Document Summary
Deining terms: factor prices assumed to be exogenous; may change but not explained in the model, technology and factor supplies are assumed to be constant (y* is constant) Theory that takes us from short run to long run based on: factor prices assumed to adjust in response to output gaps, technology and factor supplies assumed to be constant (y* is constant) Deviaions of gdp causes wages and other factors to adjust. Assumpion of constant potenial output (y*: ad or as shocks have no long-run efect on real gdp, output eventually returns to y* Assumpions: factor prices assumed to have fully adjusted to any output gap. Ater prices have adjusted, real gdp will return to level of potenial output: technology and factor supplies are assumed to be changing. Level of potenial output is changing (and growing) Focus on economic growth (technological change and growth of factor supplies)
