  1. The AS-AD Model • Requires equilibrium in the goods, financial, and labor markets • Aggregate supply focuses on equilibrium in the labor market • Aggregate demand focuses on equilibrium in the goods and financial markets

  2. Aggregate Supply • Captures the effects of output on the price level • It is derived from equilibrium in the labor market

  3. Aggregate Supply The Determination of Aggregate Supply The nominal wage (W) = PeF(u,z) Price level (P) = (1+)W P = Pe(1+) F (u,z)

  4. Aggregate Supply According to: P = Pe(1+) F (u,z) • The price level (P) is a function of: • Pe: The expected price level • u: The unemployment rate

  5. Aggregate Supply • The price level as a function of output instead of the unemployment rate

  6. Aggregate Supply-The price level as a function of output instead of the unemployment rate Observations • A higher expected price level leads, one for one, to a higher actual price level. • An increase in output leads to an increase in the price level.

  7. Aggregate Supply • Higher Pehigher P • PeWP • W=PeF(u,z) (PeW) • P=(1+µ)W (WP)

  9. Aggregate Supply Higher Outputhigher P W=PeF(u,z)(uW) P=(1+u)W(W P)

  10. AS Two characteristics: 1. Given Pe an increase in Y increases P P > Pe Price Level, P 2. At A: Y = Yn & P = Pe A Observation: Pe Y > Yn then P > Pe Y < Yn then P < Pe P < Pe Yn Output, Y Aggregate Supply Graphically:

  12. Aggregate Demand Aggregate Demand: • Captures the effect of the price level on output • Is derived from equilibrium in the Goods (IS) and financial (LM) markets

  13. Aggregate Demand Goods Market (IS): Financial Market (LM):

  14. LM´ (P´ > P) LM (P) A A´ Interest Rate, i • falls to Initial Equilibrium i i´ IS Y´ Y Output, Y Aggregate Demand IS – LM Equilibrium • Assume P increases to P´ • & M is fixed • LM shifts to LM´ (P´ > P) • Equilibrium to A´ • i to i´ & Y to Y´

  15. LM´ (P´ > P) LM (P) Interest Rate, i Interest Rate, i A´ P´ A´ i´ A i A P AD IS Y´ Y Y Y´ Output, Y Output, Y Aggregate Demand Deriving Aggregate Demand (AD)

  18. Aggregate Demand: Aggregate Demand • Y is a decreasing function of P • Shifts in IS or LM shift AD

  19. Equilibrium Output in the Short and the Medium Run

  20. AS Observation: Equilibrium Y may be greater than or less than Yn A B P Equilibrium Pe AD Y Yn Equilibrium Output in the Short and the Medium Run Price Level, P Output, Y

  21. Equilibrium Output in the Short and the Medium Run The dynamics of output and the price level Pe = the price level last year Pt = price level in year t Pt-1 = price level in year t-1 Pt+1 = price level in year t+1 Assume: Therefore: Pte = Pt-1

  22. Equilibrium Output in the Short and the Medium Run The dynamics of output and the price level Pte = Pt-1 Given: Note: µ, z, M, G and T are assumed to be constant

  23. AS´ (t+1) AS(t) Price Level, P Equilibrium Year t At A: Yt > Yn Pt > Pet= Pt-1 A´ A B´ Pet+1 = Pt Pet = Pt-1 B AD(t) Yt Yn Output, Y Equilibrium Output in the Short and the Medium Run The dynamics of output and the price level Equilibrium Year t + 1 Pt+1 AS shifts to AS´ At A´: Yt+1 > Yn Pt+1 > Pet+1 Yt+1

  24. AS´´ AS´ AS Price Level, P Equilibrium after Y + 1 A´´ Pn • Aggregate supply • continues to shift to AS´´ A´ Pt+1 • Price level continues • to increase A Pt • Output continues to • fall • Medium run • equilibrium at Pn, Yn AD Yt Yn Yt+1 Output, Y Equilibrium Output in the Short and the Medium Run The dynamics of output and the price level

  25. Equilibrium Output in the Short and the Medium Run The dynamics of output and the price level Two Observations Short Run: Output can be above or below YnMedium Run: Prices adjust to return output to Yn

  28. The Effects of a Monetary Expansion The Neutrality of Money A Summary Short-run: M Y and P The relative change in P and Y depends on the slope of AS Medium run: Prices continue to increase until P and Y return to their original level, i.e., money is neutral
