Chapter 13, Problem 21P
Use Table 26.3 to answer the following questions.
- Sketch an aggregate supply and aggregate demand diagram.
- What is the equilibrium output and
price level? - If aggregate demand shifts right, what is equilibrium output?
- If aggregate demand shifts left, what is equilibrium output?
- In this scenario, would you suggest using aggregate demand to alter the level of output or to control any inflationary increases in the price level?

Use the following graph to answer the following questions.

Line Z
Line X2
Line X1

If point A occurs chronologically before point B, then this graph could represent
a decrease in aggregate demand with a decrease in long-run and short-run aggregate supply.
a decrease in aggregate demand with constant long-run and short-run aggregate supply.
constant aggregate demand with a decline in long-run aggregate supply.
an increase in aggregate demand with constant long-run and short-run aggregate supply.
constant aggregate demand with a decline in short-run aggregate supply.
The graph below is associated with a hypothetical country. Consider an increase in aggregate demand (AD). Specifically, aggregate demand shifts to the right from AD1AD1 to AD2AD2, causing the quantity of output demanded to rise at each price level. For instance, at a price level of 140, output is now $400 billion, where initially it was $300 billion.
Fill in the missing values in the table by selecting the change in each scenario required to increase aggregate demand.
Change required to increase AD
Expected rate of return on investment. (decrease/increase)
Incomes in other countries (decrease/increase)
Consumer expectations about future profitability. (improve/worsen)
Government spending (increase/decrease)

- "The demand curves for all products have negative slopes. For instance, the demand curves for milk,automobiles, personal computers, and shirts all have negative slopes. Therefore, because the aggregate demand curve shows the demand for all products, it too must have a negative slope.

Specifically, aggregate demand shifts to the right from AD1AD1 to AD2AD2, causing the quantity of output demanded to rise at all price levels. For example, at a price level of 140, output is now $400 billion, where previously it was $300 billion.arrow_forwardAs you know, supply and demand shifts are caused by one of their determinants. Shifts in aggregate demand (AD) show the effect of events on price level and Real GDP. Any event that causes a change in consumer, business, or government spending or any change in net exports (C+l+G+Xn) will shift AD. Any event that causes a change in production costs or increases productivity will shift aggregate supply (AS). Decide if the following events are Micro, shifting supply or demand, or Macro, shifting AD or AS. Give the direction in which the graph shifts.

Assume that nothing else is changing besides the identified change. (In your answer, indicate whether the change will "Decrease" or "Increase" aggregate supply or have no effect.) (a) A rise in the average price of inputs; (b) An increase in worker productivity; (c) Government antipollution regulations become stricter; (d) A new subsidy program is enacted for new business investment in productive equipment; (e) Energy prices decline.arrow_forwardThe following graph shows an aggregate demand curve (AD) illustrating the inverse relationship between the price level and the quantity of Real GDP in the United States. During World War II, the United States increased military spending. Show the effect of the following scenario on the aggregate demand curve by dragging the curve or moving the point to the appropriate position. Note: Tool tip: To move the curve, click and drag any part of the curve. The curve will snap into position, so if you try to move it and it snaps back to its original position, just try again and drag it a little farther.
