What is the neoclassical zone of the SRAS curve? How much is the output level likely to change in the neoclassical zone?
Table 11.4 describes Santher's economy.
Price Level | AD | AS |
50 | 1000 | 250 |
60 | 950 | 580 |
70 | 900 | 750 |
80 | 850 | 850 |
90 | 800 | 900 |
a. Plot the AD/AS curves and identify the equilibrium.
b. Would you expect unemployment in this economy to be relatively high or low?
c. Would you expect prices to be a relatively large or small concern for this economy?
d. Imagine that input prices fall and so AS shifts to the right by units. Identify the new equilibrium. e. How will the shift in AS affect the original output, price level, and employment?
Suppose the U.S. Congress passes significant immigration reform that makes it more difficult for foreigners to come to the United States to work. Use the AD/AS model to explain how this would affect the equilibrium level of GDP and the price level.
Briefly explain the reason for the near-vertical shape of the SRAS curve on its far right.
