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. As evidence, after spiking to record highs in early summer, lumber prices have now fallen below their price at the start of the year. The reason for the dramatic price increase earlier in the year was a combination of reduced supply in 2019 and a surge in demand…arrow_forwardIn the short run, what is the impact on the price level and the level of the real GDP of each of the following changes.
