6) Refer to Figure 26.3.5 above. What type of gap is shown by point B and how large this the gap in terms of Real GDP? V
Short-run equilibrium is at such a price level where short-run aggregate supply equals aggregate demand.
When short-run equilibrium is at point B.
Real GDP is $13.5 billion.
Potential GDP is $13 billion.
Real GDP is greater than potential GDP, thus there is an inflationary output gap.
Size of the gap = Real GDP - Potential GDP
Size of the gap = $13.5 billion - $13 billion
Size of the gap = $0.5 billion|
