ECON-B252 Final

Barnette

QuestionAnswer
Unemployment individuals over the age of 16 who are willing and able to work but do not have a job
Labor force formula LF= Employed + Unemployed
Marginally attached Adults who are available to work but have not been looking in the last 4 weeks
Underemployed formula Unemployed + Involuntary Part time+ Marginally attached
Discouraged workers individuals who would like to work but have given up looking for a job
Unemployment rate % of LF that is unemployed Unemp rate = Unemployed/ LF X 100
Underemployment rate Underemployed/ Employed + Underemployed x 100
labor force participation rate LFPR= LF/ CNA popiulation x 100
CNA population? Civilian noninstitutional adult
Employment population ratio Employed/ CNA population
4 types of unemployment frictional, structural, cyclical, seasonal
Frictional unemp: Unemployed ppl looking for work between jobs
Seasonal unemp Unemployed ppl due to seasonal changes in particular jobs or industries
Structural unemp Unemployed ppl who do not have the skills for a particular job
Cyclical unemp Economy wide unemployment due to downturn in business cycle
Inflation Upward movement in average level of prices
Deflation Downward movement in the average level of prices
Purchasing power Value of $$ for buying goods and services Varies with prices and income
Price Index The cost of today's market basket of goods expressed as a percentage of the cost of the same market basket during a base year.
Price Index formula price index = basket price/basket price in base year x 100
Inflation rate Rate of change in price index between two time periods
Inflation rate = (Price index in year 2 - price index in year 1)/(Price index in year 1) x 100
CPI Consumer price index - average price of goods bought by the typical consumer
PPI Producer price index- Average price received by producers
GDP deflator Measures the average price of all final goods and services
Nominal value the economic statistic actually announced at that time, not adjusted for inflation; contrast with real value.... price expressed in todays dollar
Real value an economic statistic after it has been adjusted for inflation; contrast with nominal value....value expressed in purchasing power
Real interest rate (i) = Nominal i - expected i
RVy= (NPx/CPIx) * CPIy
price of basket is calculated by price x quantity
CPI = Price of basket in given year/ price of basket in base year
Business fluctuation ups and downs in an economy
Types of business fluctuations Expansion and contraction
Circular flow Goods and services flow in 1 direction and money payments in another direction
GDP the total market value of all final goods and services produced annually in an economy
NOT included in Gdp 1. intermediate goods 2. Non-production transactions 3. Non-market (illegal) activities 4. Transfer payments
Expenditure Approach Computes national income by adding up the dollar value at current market price of all final goods and services
Expenditure approach formula GDP=C+I+G+ NX c- consumption I- gross private domestic investment G- govt expenditures NX- Net exports (total exports- total imports)
Income approach measures national income by adding up all income received by all factors of production.
Income approach formula GDP= wages + rent + interest + profit + depreciation + indirect business taxes
Depreciation and net domestic product is NDP
NDP= GDP - depreciation
Real GDP Nominal GDP/GDP Deflator (price index) x 100
GDP growth rate GDP Year 2 - GDP Year 1/ GDP Year 1 x100
GDP per capita GDP/population
New real GDP New real gdp= old real GDP( 1+ growth rate)^n
Rule of 70 Doubling time (in years) = 70/(percentage growth rate).
Factors of production Productivity, capital, human cap, labor
5 keys to economic growth Increase number of resources, increase productivity, Saving, new growth theory, importance of human capital
Economic stages of development -agricultural stage -manufacturing stage -services stage
Free rider someone who consumes resources without working or contributing
Y= A * F (K, L, H, N ) OR Output. time period= some function of capital, labor, human cap, & natural resources inputs
LRAS curve An amount of real GDP at full employment
LRAS curve shifts outward= growth which is caused by - growth of LFPR -Capital accumulation - improvements in technology
Aggregate supply the total of all planned production in the economy
Aggregate demand the total of all planned expenditures in the economy
AD curve shows planned purchase rates for all goods and services in the economy at various price levels, all other things held constant
AD formula C+I+G+NX
For ad curve as price level rises... real GDP demand declines
Shifting the AD curve - any non price level change that increases aggregate spending shifts AD to the right - any price level change that decreases spending shifts AD to the Left
Factors increasing AD - drop in foreign value of a dollar - increased security about jobs and future income -improvements in economic conditions in other countries - reduction in real interest rates - tax decreases
when does long run equilibrium occur Intersection between LRAS and AD
Secular deflation Increase in LRAS results in decrease in price level, all else being equal
Factors that effect LRAS - Labor -physical capital -human cap - total factor productivity -techonology
Incerase in demand causes movement _____ the demand curve UP
Factors that effect AD - Imports -exports - investments -govt ourchases consump
SPENT savings, productivity, education, number of resources, technology..... increase in ANY of these shifts LRAS to the RIGHT
LRAS represents real potential GDP
AD represents total planned spending or expenditures in the economy ... C + I + G + NX (increase in these shifts curve)
Keynesian model - sticky prices - short run - AD determines output
Classical model -flexible prices - Long run - LRAS determines output
Any factor that affects long run affects the short run
affects short but not long input prices and inflationary expectations
affects both lras and sras - - productivity - education - # of resources -competition -tech -govt regulation
Recessionary Gap Actual real GDP is less than potential GDP
Inflationary Gap Actual real GDP is more than potential real GDP
Price and GDP fall = AD decrease
Price and GDP rise= AD increase
Price rise GDP fall SRAS decrease
Aggregate short run is horizontal with fixed prices
Disposable income Personal income after taxes GDP= DI
Consumption Spending on new goods and services
Consump formula y= m(x) +b OR C= M(yd) + b OR (MPC)*(Yd) + constant
Spending formula slope*(disposable income) +constant
Average Propensity to Consume (APC) consumption/disposable income
Average Propensity to Save (APS) Saving/ real disposable income
MPC (marginal propensity to consume) change in consumption/change in real DI
MPS (marginal propensity to save) change in savings/change in disposable income
APS + APC and MPS+ MPC should aways equal 1
DI C+S= Yd
another way to write consump MPC(yd) + autonomous consumption
another way to write savings MPS(yd) - autonomous consumption
Actual investment AI= planned investment + unplanned investment
determinants of consumption and saving wealth, expectations, household debt, taxes
as real interest rate increases the real gdp decreases
What causes planned investment to shift expectations on future profitability, productive technology, business taxes, cash flow
When C+I+G+NX = GDP equilibrium
When C+I+G+NX > GDP Unplanned drop in inventories
When C+I+G+NX < GDP rise in inventories
Equilibrium Aggregate expenditure equals aggregate production
