From Short Run to Long Run • Short run –Input prices inflexible –Upward sloping aggregate supply • Long run –Input prices fully flexible –Vertical aggregate supply • The transition? 35-2 From Short Run to Long Run • Production above potential output: –High demand for inputs –Input prices rise –Short run aggregate supply shifts left –Return to potential output • Production below potential output • Graphical examples… 35-3 From Short Run to Long Run Short-Run Aggregate Supply Long-Run Aggregate Supply a2 P2 a1 P1 P3 a3 Q3 ASLR AS2 Price Level Price Level AS1 P2 Qf Q2 Real Domestic Output a1 P1 P3 a2 b1 AS1 AS3 a3 c1 Qf Real Domestic Output 35-4 Extended AD-AS Model Long Run Equilibrium Price Level ASLR AS1 a P1 AD1 Qf Real Domestic Output 35-5 Extended AD-AS Model Demand-Pull Inflation Price Level ASLR P3 AS1 b c P2 P1 AS2 a AD2 AD1 Qf Q2 Real Domestic Output 35-6 Extended AD-AS Model Cost-push inflation If government counters recession with spending… If government ignores recession… Price Level ASLR AS1 c P3 P2 AS2 b a P1 AD2 AD1 Q2 Q f Real Domestic Output 35-7 Extended AD-AS Model Recession Price Level ASLR P3 AS2 a P1 P2 AS1 b c AD1 AD2 Q1 Qf Real Domestic Output 35-8 Productivity Increases Long Run Growth/Inflation Extended AD-AS Model • Explaining ongoing inflation –Ongoing economic growth shifts aggregate supply –Ongoing increases in money supply shift aggregate demand • Small positive rate of inflation 35-11 The Phillips Curve • Demonstrates SHORT-RUN tradeoff between inflation and unemployment Concept Empirical Data 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 Unemployment Rate (Percent) 7 Annual Rate of Inflation (Percent) Annual Rate of Inflation (Percent) Data for the 1960s 7 69 6 5 68 4 66 67 3 65 2 1 64 63 62 61 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Unemployment Rate (Percent) 35-12 The Phillips Curve The graphical representation of the relationship between the rates of Unemployment and Inflation.
