The x-axis is scaled from 0 to 800 billion dollars with an increment of 40 billion dollars, and the y-axis is scaled from 30 to 150 units with an increment of 5 units.   Object Details On the graph we have:Four Line Objects:An upward sloping Aggregate Supply, AS line with two endpoints:Point 1 at (160, 70)Point 2 at (720, 140)A downward sloping Aggregate Demand, AD1 line with two endpoints:Point 1 at (80, 110)Point 2 at (640, 40)A vertical Long-run Aggregate Supply, LRAS with two endpoints:Point 1 at (400, 145)Point 2 at (400, 30)A downward sloping Aggregate Demand, AD line with two endpoints:Point 1 at (720, 60)Point 2 at (160, 130)Two Reference Points:Lines AS, AD, and LRAS intersect at (400, 100)Lines AS  and AD1 intersect at (280, 85) a.
