Output and Expenditure in the Short Run
Aggregate expenditure (AE)
The total amount of spending in the economy: the sum of consumption,
planned investment, government purchases, and net exports.
AE = C + I + G + NX
Macroeconomic Equilibrium
AE = GDP = Y = C + I + G + NX
Unintended change in inventories:
The Difference between Planned Investment and Actual Investment
In macro-equilibrium, there is no unintended change in
Inventories: Actual Investment = Planned Investment.
Adjustments to Macroeconomic Equilibrium

Expenditure (AE) and Output (GDP = Y)

• Current disposable income
• Household wealth
• Expected future income
• The price level

The Consumption Function
Relation between real consumption expenditure (C)
and real disposable income (DI)

= Marginal propensity to consume

MPC
Consumption
The Consumption Function
The MPC determines how much consumption changes
as income changes:
MPC 
Change in consumptio n
Change in disposable income
or
Change in consumption = Change in disposable income × MPC
The Relationship between Consumption and National Income
Disposable income = National income − Net taxes
or
National income = GDP = Disposable income + Net taxes
C
Y
Income, Consumption, and Saving
National income = Consumption + Saving + Taxes
Change in national income = Change in consumption
+ Change in saving + Change in taxes
Y=C+S+T
and
ΔY = ΔC + ΔS + ΔT
To simplify, we assume taxes are constant ΔT = 0, so
ΔY = ΔC + ΔS
Income, Consumption, and Saving
Marginal propensity to save (MPS) The change in saving
divided by the change in disposable income.

A Numerical Example of Macroeconomic Equilibrium
When planned aggregate expenditure is less than output (real GDP), some
firms will experience an unplanned increase in inventories. They will then
reduce output.
When planned aggregate expenditure is greater than output (real GDP), some
firms will experience an unplanned decrease in inventories. They will then
increase output.

Don’t Let This Happen to YOU!
Don’t Confuse Aggregate Expenditure with Consumption Spending
Equilibrium
The Multiplier Effect
Autonomous expenditure An
expenditure that does not depend on
the level of GDP.
Multiplier The increase in equilibrium real GDP in
response to increase in autonomous expenditure, e.g.
Expenditure multiplier = ΔY/ΔI
Multiplier effect The process by which an increase in autonomous
expenditure leads to a larger increase in real GDP: ΔY = ΔI + ΔC
= Change in autonomous spending that sparks an expansion
+
Change in consumption spending induced by increasing output and
income.

Change in autonomous expenditur e 1  MPC
1 The multiplier effect occurs both when autonomous
expenditure increases and when it decreases… like now!
2 The multiplier effect makes the economy more sensitive
to changes in autonomous expenditure than it would
otherwise be.
3 The larger the MPC, the larger the value of the multiplier.
4 The formula for the multiplier, 1/(1 − MPC), is
oversimplified. It ignores the effects an increasing GDP
has on taxes, imports, inflation, and interest rates.
The Aggregate Demand Curve
The Effect of a Change in the Price Level on Real GDP…A rise in the price level
•reduces net exports
•reduces the purchasing power of monetary wealth
•reduces real money balances and raises interest rates
•higher interest rates appreciate currency and further reduce net exports
•A rise in the price level reduces AE and reduces Y
Aggregate demand curve A curve that shows the relationship
between the price level and the level of planned aggregate
expenditure in the economy, holding constant all other factors
that affect aggregate expenditure.
Appendix
The Algebra of Macroeconomic Equilibrium
The letters with bars over them represent fixed, or autonomous,
values. So, C represents autonomous consumption, which had a value
of 1,000 in our original example. Now, solving for equilibrium, we get:
Y  C  MPC(Y)  I  G  NX
Or,
Y - MPC(Y)  C  I  G  NX
Or,
Y (1  MPC )  C  I  G  NX
Or,
C  I  G  NX
Y
