The Aggregate Supply Curve
aggregate supply The total supply of all goodsand services in an economy.
aggregate supply (AS) curve A graph thatshows the relationship between the aggregatequantity of output supplied by all firms in aneconomy and the overall price level.
The Aggregate Supply Curve: A Warning
An aggregate supply curve in the traditional senseof the word supplydoes not exist. What does existis what we might call a price/output responsecurvea curve that traces out the price decisionsand output decisions of all firms in the economyunder a given set of circumstances.

The Aggregate Supply Curve
Aggregate Supply in the Short Run
In the short run, the aggregate supplycurve (the price/output responsecurve) has a positive slope.At low levels of aggregate output, thecurve is fairly flat.As the economy approaches capacity,the curve becomes nearly vertical.At capacity, the curve is vertical.

The Aggregate Supply Curve
Shifts of the Short-Run Aggregate Supply Curve

The Equilibrium Price Level
equilibrium price level The price level at which
the aggregate demand and aggregate supplycurves intersect.
At each point along theAD curve, boththe money market and the goodsmarket are in equilibrium. Each pointon theAScurve represents the price/output decisions of all the firms in theeconomy.P0 and Y0correspond to equilibrium in
the goods market and the moneymarket and to a set of price/outputdecisions on the part of all the firms inthe economy.

The Long-Run Aggregate Supply Curve
When the AD curve shifts fromAD0 to
AD1, the equilibrium price level initially
rises from P0to P1 and output rises
from Y0 to Y1.
Wages respond in the longer run,shifting theAScurve fromAS0 toAS1.
If wages fully adjust, output will beback at Y0. Y0 is sometimes called
potential GDP.

The Long-Run Aggregate Supply Curve
e Simple Keynesian Aggregate Supply Curve
Oneviewoftheaggregatesupplycurve,thesimpleKeynesianview,holdsthatatanygivenmoment,theeconomyhasaclearlydefinedcapacity,or
maximum,output.
With planned aggregate expenditure ofAE1and aggregate demand ofAD1, equilibrium
output is Y1.
A shift of planned aggregate expenditure toAE2, corresponding to a shift of the AD curve
toAD2, causes output to rise but the price
level to remain at P1.
If planned aggregate expenditure andaggregate demand exceed YF, however,
there is an inflationary gap and the price level
rises to P3.

The Long-Run Aggregate Supply Curve
Potential GDP
potential output, orpotential GDP The level ofaggregate output that can be sustained in the longrun without inflation.
Short-Run Equilibrium Below Potential Output
Although different economists have differentopinions on how to determine whether aneconomy is operating at or above potential output,there is general agreement that there is amaximum level of output (below the vertical portion
of the short-run aggregate supply curve) that canbe sustained without inflation.

Monetary and Fiscal Policy Effects
If a shift of aggregate demand occurs while the economy is operating near full capacity, the result will bean increase in the price level with little increase in output from point B to point B.

Monetary and Fiscal Policy Effects
Long-Run Aggregate Supply and Policy Effects
It is important to realize that if theAScurve isvertical in the long run, neither monetary policy norfiscal policy has any effect on aggregate output inthe long run.
The conclusion that policy has no effect onaggregate output in the long run is perhapsstartling.

Causes of Inflation
Cost-Push, or Supply-Side, Inflation
An increase in costs shifts theAScurve to the left.By assuming the government does notreact to this shift, theAD curve doesnot shift, the price level rises, andoutput falls.

Causes of Inflation
Money and Inflation
An increase in G with the moneysupply constant shifts theAD curvefromAD0 to AD1. Although not
shown in the figure, this leads to an
increase in the interest rate andcrowding out of plannedinvestment.If the Fed tries to keep the interestrate unchanged by increasing themoney supply, theAD curve willshift farther and farther to the right.The result is a sustained inflation,perhaps even hyperinflation.

Causes of Inflation
Sustained Inflation as a Purely Monetary Phenomenon
Virtually all economists agree that an increase inthe price level can be caused by anything thatcauses theAD curve to shift to the right or theAScurve to shift to the left.
It is also generally agreed that for a sustained
inflation to occur, the Fed must accommodate it.
In this sense, a sustained inflation can be thoughtof as a purely monetary phenomenon.

The Behavior of the Fed
The Feds Response to the State of the Economy
During periods of high output/highinflation, the economy is on therelatively steep portion of theAScurve. In this case, the Fed is likelyto increase the interest rate (and
thus contract the money supply).This will shift theAD curve to theleft, fromAD0 to AD1, and lead to a
decrease in the price level withvery little decrease in output.
