6. TheGDP gap and the consequences of unemployment On the following graph, the black line shows potential real GDP and the blue line shows actual real GDP for a hypothetical country from 1990 to 2010. Use the green quadrilateral (triangle symbols) to shade the area between actual and potential real GDP that represents the positive GDP gap. Then use the purple quadrilateral (diamond symbols) to shade the area between actual and potential real GDP that represents the negative GDP gap. 10 Actual Real GDP Z Potential Real GDP GDP (Billions of 2000 dollars) 9 8 LO A 2 1 0 1990 1994 1998 YEAR 2002 2006 2010 Positive GDP Gap Negative GDP Gap (?)
