Ch 10. Aggregate Demand and
Aggregate Supply



Aggregate Demand-Aggregate Supply
model (AD-AS model).
Enables us to analyze changes in real GDP
and the price level simultaneously.
Provides insights on inflation, recession,
unemployment, and economic growth.
A.
Aggregate Demand – schedule or
graph that shows the amounts of real
output that buyers collectively desire
to purchase at each possible price
level.
-- Aggregate Demand = all demand together.
AS
D

Real domestic output, GDP
The aggregate demand curve: downsloping
indicates an inverse (negative) relationship
between the price level and the amount of real
output purchased.
Also downsloping due to real wealth balance
effect (how we feel about market), foreign trade
effect (P =  sales), and interest rate effect.
Change in Aggregate Demand

A change in the
determinants of
AD will SHIFT the
AD curve.
Right shift from
AD1 to AD2
shows an
increase in AD.
Left shift from

shows a
decrease.

B.
Aggregate Supply – schedule or
graph showing the level of real
output that firms will produce at
each possible price level.
-- AS = supply of everything in our economy (U.S. GDP).
-- Sticky Wages = labor contracts stuck at a certain level.
Aggregate Supply

1.
Aggregate Supply in the LongRun (ASLR) – vertical at fullemployment level of real GDP
(Qf).
-- Long run – In Microeconomics, a period of time long enough to enable producers of
a product to change the quantities of all the resources they employ.
 Price =  real output.
 Price =  real output.

Q
Upsloping AS curve
indicates a direct
(or positive) relationship
between the price
level and the amount
of real output that
Firms will offer for sale.
AS in the short-run (ASSR)
-- Short-run – In Microeconomics, a period in time in which producers are able to
change the quantities of some, but not all of the resources they employ.
-- If price-level rises, output increases, and profits increase because wages are fixed.
-- Wages are fixed and sticky because of contracts, unawareness.

C.
Equilibrium – intersection of the AS
& AD curves.
-- Equilibrium price level and equilibrium real output = intersection.
-- AS & AD jointly establish the price level and level of real GDP.

AS: Factors of Productions (land, labor, capital, & entrepreneurial); can
also include business tax & business regulation.
AD: Consumer expenditures, bus. investment, gov’t expend. & net exports.
The “I” in AD is business investment on demand side because the market
demands payment.

F.Decrease in AS: Cost-push Inflation
-- A decrease in AS that causes cost-push inflation.
Cost-Push Inflation:
 Supply shock causes increase in price level,
 Govt has a policy dilemma, either higher price level or lower
economic output.

An excessive increase in aggregate demand can cause
demand-pull inflation.
