Transcribed Image Text:This image depicts a macroeconomic model featuring Aggregate Demand (AD) and Short-Run Aggregate Supply (SRAS) curves.
### Key Points:
1. **Axes**:
- The vertical axis represents the price level (\(P_L\)).
- The horizontal axis represents Real GDP.
2. **Curves**:
- **SRAS Curves (Short-Run Aggregate Supply)**: There are three SRAS curves labeled \(SRAS_1\), \(SRAS_2\), and \(SRAS_3\). These curves slope upward, indicating that as the price level increases, the quantity of goods and services firms are willing to supply also increases.
- **AD Curves (Aggregate Demand)**: There are two AD curves labeled \(AD_1\) and \(AD_2\). These curves slope downward, showing that as the price level decreases, the quantity of goods and services demanded increases.
3. **Equilibrium Points**:
- **Point A**: Intersection of \(AD_1\) and \(SRAS_1\).
- **Point B**: Intersection of \(AD_1\) and \(SRAS_3\).
- **Point C**: Intersection of \(AD_2\) and \(SRAS_2\).
- **Point D**: Intersection of \(AD_1\) and \(AD_2\), but not along a supply curve.
- **Point E**: Intersection of \(AD_2\) and \(SRAS_3\).
4. **GDP Potential Line**: A vertical dashed line labeled "GDP potential" marks the level of output the economy can sustain in the long run without causing inflation.
This diagram can illustrate shifts in supply and demand, showing how they affect the equilibrium price level and output. Each intersection shows potential states of the economy, with movements between these points representing changes due to factors such as policy shifts, external shocks, or changes in consumer behavior.

- 5. Short-run shocks in the AD-AS model The following graph shows an economy that is initially in equilibrium. Then, a large decline in stock prices occurs, reducing the wealth of individuals. On the graph, show the economic impact of this event in the short-run aggregate demand and aggregate supply (AD–AS) model by shifting one or both curves. Show the movement of the AD and SRAS on a graph. This event is an example of a decrease in AD/increase in AD/ decrease in SRAS/ increase in SRAS. As a result, the price level declines/rises, and the equilibrium real GDP declines/rises.arrow_forwardSuppose country A has a central bank with full credibility, and country B has a central bank with no credibility.Using a graph of aggregate demand and supply explain (a long explanation) how the credibility of each country’s central bank affect economic outcomes, if both countries are hit with the same b) negative temporary aggregate supply shock?arrow_forwardAnswering all questions compulsory...arrow_forward
- 1. Assume that the AD curve of the economy is given by Y = 15 – 100t + ñ, where m is a demand shock (animal spirits, government spending, or money supply). The AS curve is given by 1 TT = En + (Y – Ỹ) + ū, 50 where v is a supply shock (oil price, productivity). The variable n is the inflation rate, En is expected inflation rate, Y is output, and Y is long-run output. For numerical values, Y = 10, ñ = ū = 0. Answer each equation using both graphs and math. a. Plot the above AD-AS curves on the (Y, t) diagram. Describe the slopes of both the AD curve and the AS curve. b. If the economy is currently at its long-run trend, what should be the equilibrium output? What is the equilibrium inflation rate in this economy? What should be the equilibrium expected inflation rate in this economy? Assume that expected inflation rate is constant at 5 percent.

If this country's government decides to increase its short-term spending, what happens to the short-run equilibrium price level, and why? Is this an example of demand-pull or cost-push inflation? Explain. 1.) Using the line drawing tool, draw either a new aggregate demand (AD) curve or a new short-run aggregate supply (AS) curve that shows the effects of temporary government spending increases. Properly label your line. 2.) Using the point drawing tool, indicate the economy's new short-run equilibrium price and level of real GDP. Label this point 'E₂.'
