A Dynamic Model of Aggregate Demand and Aggregate Supply
... Suppose that the aggregate supply shock variable t increases to 1 percent for one period of time and then returns to zero. The DAS curve will shift to the left in period t by exactly the amount of the shock. The DAD curve will remain unchanged. Inflation rises and output falls in period t. These ef ...
