Assumptions and Simplifications
• Use the Keynesian aggregate
•
•
•
LO1
expenditures model
Prices are fixed
GDP = DI
Begin with private, closed economy
• Consumption spending
• Investment spending

Equilibrium
* If depreciation and net foreign factor income are zero, government is ignored and it is assumed that all saving occurs in the household sector of the
economy, then GDP as a measure of domestic output is equal to NI,PI, and DI. Household income = GDP

Other Features of Equilibrium GDP
• Saving equals planned investment
• Saving is a leakage of spending
• Investment is an injection of

No unplanned changes in inventories
• Firms do not change production

International Economic Linkages
• Prosperity abroad
• Can increase U.S. exports
• Exchange rates
• Depreciate the dollar to increase
•
LO4
exports
A caution on tariffs and devaluations
• Other countries may retaliate
• Lower GDP for all
