During 2015, there was a substantial increase in stock prices, as well as a reduction in the world price of crude oil.
How did the stock and oil price changes influence aggregate demand and aggregate supply in the United States?
Check all that apply.
These two changes would result in a temporary increase in output.
The decrease in the world price of crude oil would cause the SRAS curve to shift to the right.
The decrease in the world price of crude oil would cause the LRAS curve to shift to the left.
The increase in stock prices would cause the AD curve to shift to the right.
Please explain why the long-run aggregate supply curve is vertical. What variable causes the short-run aggregate supply curve to shift? Please identify whether an increase in that variable will cause the short-run aggregate supply curve to shift to the right or to the left. What is the relationship among the AD, SRAS, and LRAS curves when the economy is in macroeconomic equilibrium?
How did the decline in U.S. home prices in 2006–2008 affect aggregate demand?

- The graph on the right shows a basic aggregate demand and aggregate supply graph (with LRAS constant) that shows the economy in long-run equilibrium at point A.

- The following graph shows an increase in short-run aggregate supply (SRAS) in a hypothetical economy. Specifically, short-run aggregate supply shifts to the right from SRAS₁ to SRAS2, causing the quantity of output supplied at a price level of 125 to rise from $250 billion to $350 billion. Review the graph and then complete the table that follows. PRICE LEVEL 200 175 150 125 100 75 50 25 0 0 50 SRAS SRAS₂ 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 REAL GDP (Billions of dollars) ? The following table lists several determinants of short-run aggregate supply. Complete the table by indicating the change needed in each determinant to increase short-run aggregate supply.

Suppose that the stock market broadly increases. Use the graphs to show the new positions of aggregate demand (AD), short-run aggregate supply (SRAS), and long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) in both the short run and the long run, as well as the short-run and long-run equilibriums resulting from this change. Then, indicate what happens to the price level and real GDP (or aggregate output) in the short run and in the long run.

- are my answers correct?arrow_forwardDeterminants of aggregate supply The following graph shows an increase in short-run aggregate supply (AS) in a hypothetical economy where the currency is the dollar. Specifically, the short-run aggregate supply curve shifts to the right from AS1AS1 to AS2AS2, causing the quantity of output supplied at a price level of 100 to rise from $200 billion to $250 billion. The following table lists several determinants of short-run aggregate supply. Complete the table by selecting the changes in each scenario necessary to increase short-run aggregate supply.
