Aggregate Demand
• The relationship between the quantity
of aggregate output demanded and the
price level when all other variables are
held constant.
• Aggregate demand is made up of four
component parts

Aggregate Demand (cont’d)
Y ad = C + I + G + NX
The aggregate demand curve is downward sloping because
P ↓⇒ M / P ↑⇒ i ↓⇒ I ↑⇒ Y ad ↑
and
P ↓⇒ M / P ↑⇒ i ↓⇒ E ↓⇒ NX ↑⇒ Y ad ↑
and
P ↓⇒ M / P ↑⇒ C ↑⇒ Y ad ↑

Aggregate Demand (cont’d)
• The fact that the aggregate demand curve is
downward sloping can also be derived from
the quantity theory of money analysis.
• If velocity stays constant, a constant money
supply implies constant nominal aggregate
spending, and a decrease in the price level is
matched with an increase in aggregate
demand.

Factors that Shift Aggregate
Demand
• An increase in the money supply
shifts AD to the right: holding velocity
constant, an increase in the money supply
increases the quantity of aggregate demand
at each price level
• An increase in spending from any of
the components C, I, G, NX, will also shift
AD to the right

Aggregate Supply
• Long-run aggregate supply curve
– Determined by amount of capital and labor and
the available technology
– Vertical at the natural rate of output generated
by the natural rate of unemployment

Aggregate Supply
• Short-run aggregate supply curve
– Wages and prices are sticky
– Generates an upward sloping SRAS as firms
attempt to take advantage of short-run
profitability when price level rises

Factors that Shift SRAS
• Costs of production

Tightness of the labor market
Expected price level
Wage push
Change in production costs unrelated to wages
(supply shocks)

Self-Correcting Mechanism
• Regardless of where output is initially,
it returns eventually to the natural rate
• Slow
– Wages are inflexible, particularly downward
– Need for active government policy
• Rapid
– Wages and prices are flexible
– Less need for government intervention

Conclusions
• Shift in aggregate demand affects output only in the
short run and has no effect in the long run
• Shifts in aggregate demand affects only price level
in the long run
• Shift in short run aggregate supply affects output
and price only in the short run and has no effect in
the long run (holding the aggregate demand
constant)
• The economy has a self-correcting mechanism
