Between 2007 and 2009, the United States experienced a severe financial crisis and economic downturn commonly known as the Great Recession. Starting in 2006, housing values fell 30%, causing losses in mortgage-backed securities for families and financial institutions. The recession was marked by a drop in aggregate demand that caused a decline in GDP and an increase in unemployment.
QUESTIONS
How did the AD/AS equilibrium change over time? Support your claims by referring to your AD/AS model.
Select an economic factor (GDP, unemployment, price level) and explain what impact any shifts in AD or AS (or both) had on your chosen factor.
During 2000, there was a sharp reduction in stock prices and a sharp increase in the world price of crude oil. How will aggregate demand and aggregate supply in the United States be influenced by these two factors? Using the AD-AS model, explain the expected impact on output.
As a result of a positive supply shock, price level goes down. Use both AD-AS and MD-MS diagrams to show this event. Explain how each diagram is consistent with the outcome of the other diagram.

- Assume there is a particular short-run aggregate supply curve for an economy and the curve is relevant for several years.

Use the AD-AS model graph to explain the effect of a negative supply shock on the price levels and output levels in the economy.(Note: A graph and an explanation is needed .)arrow_forwardThe economy of Chicagoland is currently producing $65 Million worth of goods and services (current real GDP). Full employment output for Chicagoland is $75 Million worth of goods and services (full employment real GDP). The price level has been declining recently. This has occurred due to a negative AD shock. Use an AD/AS graph to show the macroeconomy of Chicagoland. Label the graph correctly. First, show the long run equilibrium of Chicagoland using aggregate demand (AD) and short run aggregate supply (SRAS) at full employment. Label the full employment output Yf, and the corresponding price level, PL. Then, use Y1 to represent the current real GDP and PL1 to represent the current price level.arrow_forward
