Suppose the economy is operating at potential GDP when it experiences an increase in export demand. How might the economy increase production of exports to meet this demand, given that the economy is already at full employment?
Suppose that an economy wants to boost available labor hours in order to increase aggregate supply. What is the best way to accomplish this?
The graph below is associated with a hypothetical country. Consider a decrease in aggregate demand (AD). Specifically, aggregate demand shifts to
the left from AD to AD₂, causing the quantity of output demanded to fall at each price level. For instance, at a price level of 140, output is now $200
billion, where initially it was $300 billion.

- Recent data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics show that the average price level for consumers rose 5.4% over the past year. While some are expressing concern over rising inflation leading the economy to “overheat,” there is some evidence indicating that this is due to the reopening of the economy as producers adjust to rising demand for goods and services. Many of the goods with the largest price increases, like bacon or cars and trucks, cannot have their production ramped up as quickly as demand is increasing. Other industries are facing supply chain challenges, like shortages of truck drivers. These problems are most likely to be short term, so, as supply catches up with demand, we can expect to see prices return to normal.
