The following graph represents the short-run aggregate supply curve (SRAS) based on an expected price level of 180. The economy's full- employment output level is $9 trillion. Major unions across the country have recently negotiated three-year wage contracts with employers. The wage contracts are based on an expected price level of 180, but the actual price level turns out to be 240. Show the short-run effect of the unexpectedly high price level by dragging the curve or moving the point to the appropriate position.

The following graph shows the aggregate demand (AD) curve in a hypothetical economy. At point A, the price level is 140, and the quantity of output demanded is $300 billion. Moving down along the aggregate demand curve from point A to point B, the price level falls to 120, and the quantity of output demanded rises to $500 billion. 170 100 180 140 130 120 110 AD 100 00 100 200 300 400 B00 700 OUTPUT (Billians of dollars) As the price level falls, the cost of borrowing money will , causing the quantity of output demanded to Additionally, as the price level falls, the impact on the domestic interest rate will cause the real value of the dollar to in foreign exchange markets.

Question: The attached picture shows the aggregate demand/aggregate supply situation in the U.S. What is the value of actual GDP? What is the value of the GDP deflator? Assume that people and businesses become pessimistic about the future of the economy; how will this affect the graph above in the short run? (i.e., which curve(s) will shift, and in which direction?) After the short-run event in part b, what will happen to actual GDP? What will happen to the price level? After the short-run event in part b, describe how the economy is doing in terms of the business cycle (i.e., recession, full employment, expansion). What long-run adjustments will be made in this economy as a result of the short-run changes in part c? How will the curve(s) shift in response to these long-run adjustments? After the long-run adjustments in part e, describe how the economy is doing in terms of the business cycle (i.e., recession, full employment, expansion).
Interpret the change you drew on the previous graph by filling in the blanks in the following paragraph: The lower-than-expected price level causes firms to earn more profit than they expected on each unit of output they produce, and, therefore, they decrease their production level. At the same time, the real value of wages and other resource prices are lower than workers and firms expected when they signed long-term contracts. As a result, the economy as a whole produces at a level below the unemployment rate is lower than its natural rate. its potential output, and Now, suppose prices remain lower than expected. As a result, in the next round of labor negotiations, unions accept lower wages for their members. The following graph shows the potential output for this economy as well as the same initial short-run aggregate supply curve as in the first graph. Shift one or both of these lines to illustrate how the economy adjusts to a new long-run equilibrium. PRICE LEVEL 180 SRAS 150…
