Assume that (a) the price level is flexible upward but not downward and (b) the economy is currently operating at its full-employment output. Other things equal, how will each of the following affect the equilibrium price level and equilibrium level of real output in the short run?a. An increase in aggregate demand.b. A decrease in aggregate supply, with no change in aggregate demand.c. Equal increases in aggregate demand and aggregate supply.d. A decrease in aggregate demand.e. An increase in aggregate demand that exceeds an increase in aggregate supply.
Which of the following is implied by a rightward shift in the economy's AS curve?
There is a demand shock.
The same output will be produced, but only at a higher price level.
At any given price level, a higher level of output will be supplied.
At any given price level, a lower level of output will be supplied.
2.3. In macroeconomics, the immediate short run is known as a length of time when both input prices and output prices are fixed. In the short-run, input prices are fixed but output prices are variable. In the long run, input prices and output prices can vary.
What happens in the immediate short-run when AD rises from AD to AD2 to the price level and output?
What happens in the short-run when AD falls from AD to AD1 to the price level and output?
What will happen in each case in the long-run?

- Suppose the economy is in long-run equilibrium. If there is a sharp increase in the minimum wage as well as an increase in taxes, then in the short run, real GDP will a. rise and the price level might rise, fall, or stay the same. In the long run, the price level might rise, fall, or stay the same but real GDP will be unaffected. b. fall and the price level might rise, fall, or stay the same. In the long run, the price level might rise, fall, or stay the same but real GDP will be unaffected. c. rise and the price level might rise, fall, or stay the same. In the long run, the price level might rise, fall, or stay the same but real GDP will be lower. d. fall and the price level might rise, fall, or stay the same. In the long run, the price level might rise, fall, or stay the same but real GDP will be lower.arrow_forwardCan someone help me graph the following explaination? Following the wage and price adjustments, the short run AS curve shifts rightward, moving the economy towards a new equilibrium (point C) where output returns to its potential level. The price level at point C will likely be lower than at point A, reflecting the adjustment in wages and prices. Now, let's illustrate the AS-AD diagram for point c, showing the short-run impact of these combined policy actions. The AS-AD diagram illustrates the short-run impact of the combined fiscal policy actions. Initially, the economy is at potential output at point A. The aggregate demand (AD) curve then shifts leftward due to the government spending cut and tax increase, moving the economy to a new short-run equilibrium at point B. This shift represents a decrease in real GDP and a potential change in the price level, indicating a slowdown in economic activity and possibly higher unemployment.arrow_forwardSuppose the full-employment level of real output ( Q) for a hypothetical economy is $250 and the price level (P ) initially is 100. Use the short-run aggregate supply schedules below to answer the questions that follow: a. What will be the level of real output in the short run if the price level unexpectedly rises from 100 to 125 because of an increase in aggregate demand? What if the price level unexpectedly falls from 100 to 75 because of a decrease in aggregate demand? Explain each situation, using figures from the table.b. What will be the level of real output in the long run when the price level rises from 100 to 125? When it falls from 100 to 75? Explain each situation.c. Show the circumstances described in parts a and b on graph paper, and derive the long-run aggregate supply curve.arrow_forward
