- AGGREGATE DEMAND-AGGREGATE SUPPLY MODEL | A MODEL OF REAL OUTPUT AND OVERALL PRICE DETERMINATION |
- long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) curve | a relationship between potential output and price level. Vertical curve indicates independence between the two |
- short-run aggregate supply (SRAS) curve | a relationship between real output and the overall price level in the short run; the horizontal SRAS curve indicates that firms meet demand in short run |
- AGGREGATE DEMAND CURVE: | A RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN OVERALL SPENDING IN THE ECONOMY AND THE AGGREGATE PRICE LEVEL (DOWNWARD SLOPING) |
- real-balances effect | the hypothesis that overall wealth in the economy will be inversely related to the overall price level causing AD curve and price level to be inversely related |
- foreign trade effect | the hypothesis that net exports will be inversely related to the overall price level and therefore that aggregate demand and the price level will be inversely related |
- STAGFLATION | THE COMBINATION OF A RECESSIONARY GAP AND A RISING PRICE LEVEL |
- Phillips curve | a term that typically refers to a statistical relationship between the inflation rate and the unemployment rate |
- Expectations-augmented Phillips curve model | : distinguishes between a short-run and long-run phillips curve and argues that short-run curves shift when expectations about the inflation rate change |
- LONG-RUN PHILLIPS CURVE | A RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE INFLATION RATE AND THE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE IN THE LONG-RUN: VERTICAL CURVE THAT IS DRAWN AT THE NATURAL RATE OF UNEMPLOYMENT |
- Short-run Phillips curve (SRPC | ): a relationship between actual unemployment and the inflation rate for the given inflationary expectations |
