- A recessionary gap exists when the macro economy is in equilibrium at less than the potential output of the the economy because aggregate demand is insufficient to fully employ all of society' s resources. In other words, the equilibrium (AD = AS) occurs to the left of the vertical long-run supply curve. At this point, potential output is reached ( full employment) and if any unemployment occurs, then it is due to structural or frictional; that is, the economy is at its natural rate of employment.

In the short-short-run, the economy deviated from its full employment output level. After that, in the long-run, which curve (AD, SRAS, or LRAS) would shift to direction (Left or Right)?

If the prices of both (a) resources and (b) goods and services increased proportionally (by the same percentage), would business firms be willing to expand output? Why or why not?arrow_forwardSuppose the aggregate demand (AD) and short-run aggregate supply (AS) schedules for an economy whose potential GDP (LRAS) equals to $2,700 are given by the table. State the short-run equilibrium price level and real GDP. According to the macroeconomic perspectives, is there an inflationary or a recessionary gap? If so, how much is the output gap?arrow_forwardThe Chinese economy is at full employment when the global economy goes into recession.
