CHANGE IN REAL PRODUCTION: The movement along the short-run or long-run aggregate supply curve caused by a change in the price level. This should be contrasted directly with a change in aggregate supply. You might also want to review the terms change in quantity supplied and change in supply, as well. A change in real production for short-run aggregate supply actually means real production changes with a movement along a given SRAS. However, a "change in real production" for long-run aggregate supply really refers to a movement along a given LRAS curve and doesn't actually involve a change in production. A change in real production means that we have identified a NEW price level-real production combination on the existing aggregate supply curve. In contrast, a change in aggregate supply means that we have changed, moved, or shifted, the entire aggregate supply curve, the whole range of price levels and real production amounts has changed.

However, because utility is not a measurable characteristic, the util does represent an actual unit of measurement, such as inches or pounds.
