Question 1 • Consider a baseline short run equilibrium where output is 16 trillion dollars, and the price level is 20. Note: In the Long Run Steady State Equilibrium, Price expectation is the same as price level & unemployment is 5% or lower. None of these are guaranteed in the short run. Usually, short run equilibrium is called an underemployment equilibrium. • Starting from the baseline, suppose COVID 19 hits this economy. Question 1 What happens in the short run to short run equilibrium price level and aggregate quantity & why? (Think about which curve shifts in which direction and why & where is the new short run equilibrium?)
