CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
Deriving the Aggregate Demand Curve
• To derive the aggregate demand
curve, we examine what happens to
aggregate output (income) (Y) when
the price level (P) changes,
assuming no changes in government
spending (G), net taxes (T), or the
monetary policy variable (Ms).

• The aggregate
demand (AD) curve
is a curve that shows
the negative
relationship between
aggregate output
(income) and the
price level.

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
The Aggregate Demand Curve:
A Warning
• The AD curve is not a market
demand curve. It is a more complex
concept.
• We cannot use the ceteris paribus
assumption to draw an AD curve. In
reality, many prices (including input
prices) rise together.

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
The Aggregate Demand Curve:
A Warning
• A higher price level causes the
demand for money to rise, which
causes the interest rate to rise.
• Then, the higher interest rate causes
aggregate output to fall.

AD curve, both the
goods market and the
money market are in
equilibrium.

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
Other Reasons for a DownwardSloping Aggregate Demand Curve
• The consumption link: The
decrease in consumption
brought about by an increase
in the interest rate contributes
to the overall decrease in
output.

Other Reasons for a DownwardSloping Aggregate Demand Curve
• The real wealth effect, or real
balance, effect is the change
in consumption brought about
by a change in real wealth that
results from a change in the
price level.

Aggregate Expenditure
and Aggregate Demand
• At every point along the
aggregate demand curve, the
aggregate quantity of output
demanded is exactly equal to
planned aggregate
expenditure.

not a market supply curve or
the sum of all the individual
supply curves in the economy.

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
The Aggregate Supply Curve:
A Warning
• Firms do not simply respond to
market-determined prices, but they
actually set prices. Price-setting
firms do not have individual supply
curves because these firms are
choosing both output and price at the
same time.

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
The Aggregate Supply Curve:
A Warning
• When we draw a firm’s supply curve,
we assume that input prices are
constant. In macroeconomics, an
increase in the overall price level
means that at least some input
prices will be rising as well.
• The outputs of some firms are the
inputs of other firms.

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
The Aggregate Supply Curve:
A Warning
• Rather than an aggregate supply
curve, what does exist is a
“price/output response” curve — a
curve that traces out the price and
output decisions of all the markets
and firms in the economy under a
given set of circumstances.

Aggregate Supply in the Short Run
© 2004 Prentice Hall Business Publishing
• In the short run, the
aggregate supply
curve (the price/output
response curve) has a
positive slope.

Aggregate Supply in the Short Run
© 2004 Prentice Hall Business Publishing
• At low levels of
aggregate output, the
curve is fairly flat. As
the economy
approaches capacity,
the curve becomes
nearly vertical. At
capacity, the curve is
vertical.

Karl Case, Ray Fair

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
Aggregate Supply in the Short Run
• Macroeconomists focus on whether
or not the economy as a whole is
operating at full capacity.
• As the economy approaches
maximum capacity, firms respond to
further increases in demand only by
raising prices.

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
Output Levels and
Price/Output Responses
• When the economy is operating at
low levels of output, an increase in
aggregate demand is likely to result
in an increase in output with little or
no increase in the overall price level.

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
The Response of Input Prices to
Changes in the Overall Price Level
• There must be a lag between
changes in input prices and
changes in output prices,
otherwise the aggregate supply
(price/output response) curve
would be vertical.

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
The Response of Input Prices to
Changes in the Overall Price Level
• Wage rates may increase at
exactly the same rate as the
overall price level if the pricelevel increase is fully
anticipated. Most input prices,
however, tend to lag increases
in output prices.

The Equilibrium Price Level
© 2004 Prentice Hall Business Publishing
• The equilibrium price
level is the point at
which the aggregate
demand and aggregate
supply curves intersect.

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
The Equilibrium Price Level
© 2004 Prentice Hall Business Publishing
• P0 and Y0 correspond to
equilibrium in the goods
market and the money
market and a set of
price/output decisions
on the part of all the
firms in the economy.

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
The Long-Run
Aggregate Supply Curve
© 2004 Prentice Hall Business Publishing
• Costs lag behind pricelevel changes in the
short run, resulting in
an upward-sloping AS
curve.
• Costs and the price
level move in tandem in
the long run, and the
AS curve is vertical.

The Long-Run
Aggregate Supply Curve
© 2004 Prentice Hall Business Publishing
• Output can be pushed
above potential GDP by
higher aggregate
demand. The
aggregate price level
also rises.

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
The Long-Run
Aggregate Supply Curve
© 2004 Prentice Hall Business Publishing
• When output is pushed
above potential, there is
upward pressure on costs,
and this causes the shortrun AS curve to the left.
• Costs ultimately increase
by the same percentage as
the price level, and the
quantity supplied ends up
back at Y0.

The Long-Run
Aggregate Supply Curve

• Y0 represents the level
of output that can be
sustained in the long
run without inflation. It
is also called potential
output or potential
GDP.

Aggregate Demand, Aggregate
Supply, and Monetary and Fiscal Policy
© 2004 Prentice Hall Business Publishing
• AD can shift to the right for
a number of reasons,
including an increase in the
money supply, a tax cut, or
an increase in government
spending.
• Expansionary policy works
well when the economy is
on the flat portion of the AS
curve, causing little change
in P relative to the output
increase.

Aggregate Demand, Aggregate
Supply, and Monetary and Fiscal Policy
© 2004 Prentice Hall Business Publishing
• On the steep portion of the
AS curve, expansionary
policy does not work well.
The multiplier is close to
zero.
• When the economy is
operating near full capacity,
an increase in AD will result
in an increase in the price
level with little increase in
output.

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
Long-Run Aggregate
Supply and Policy Effects
© 2004 Prentice Hall Business Publishing
• If the AS curve is vertical in
the long run, neither
monetary policy nor fiscal
policy has any effect on
aggregate output.
• In the long run, the
multiplier effect of a change
in government spending or
taxes on aggregate output
is zero.

The Simple “Keynesian”
Aggregate Supply Curve
© 2004 Prentice Hall Business Publishing
• The output of the economy
cannot exceed the maximum
output of YF.
• The difference between
planned aggregate
expenditure and aggregate
output at full capacity is
sometimes referred to as an
inflationary gap.

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
Causes of Inflation
• Inflation is an increase in the
overall price level.
• Sustained inflation occurs
when the overall price level
continues to rise over some
fairly long period of time.

Causes of Inflation
• Demand-pull inflation is
inflation initiated by an
increase in aggregate
demand.

• Cost-push, or supplyside, inflation is inflation
caused by an increase in
costs.

Cost-Push, or Supply-Side Inflation
© 2004 Prentice Hall Business Publishing
• Stagflation occurs
when output is falling at
the same time that
prices are rising.
• One possible cause of
stagflation is an
increase in costs.

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
Cost-Push, or Supply-Side Inflation
© 2004 Prentice Hall Business Publishing
• Cost shocks are bad
news for policy makers.
The only way to counter
the output loss is by
having the price level
increase even more
than it would without
the policy action.

Karl Case, Ray Fair
42 of 47
CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
Expectations and Inflation
• If every firm expects every other firm
to raise prices by 10%, every firm will
raise prices by about 10%. This is
how expectations can get “built into
the system.”
• In terms of the AD/AS diagram, an
increase in inflationary expectations
shifts the AS curve to the left.

Money and Inflation

• An increase in G with
the money supply
constant shifts the AD
curve from AD0 to
AD1. This leads to an
increase in the interest
rate and crowding out
of planned investment.

CHAPTER 13: Aggregate Demand, Aggregate Supply, and Inflation
Money and Inflation
© 2004 Prentice Hall Business Publishing
• If the Fed tries to prevent
crowding, it will increase
the money supply and
the AD curve will shift
farther and farther to the
right. The result is a
sustained inflation,
perhaps hyperinflation.
