RECESSIONARY GAP: The difference between the equilibrium real production achieved in the short-run aggregate market and full-employment real production the occurs when short-run equilibrium real production is less than full-employment real production. A recessionary gap, also termed a contractionary gap, is associated with a business-cycle contraction. This is one of two alternative output gaps that can occur when short-run production differs from full employment. The other is an inflationary gap.

The foreign sector, everyone who is not a citizen of our domestic economy, also purchases domestic production. These are termed net exports.

Net exports are exports minus imports.

  • Exports are purchases of domestic production by the foreign sector.
  • Imports are the purchases of foreign production by the domestic sector.
  • Net exports gives us an overall picture of how our economy interacts with the foreign sector.
  • Calculating net exports by subtracting imports gives us aggregate expenditures on domestic production only.

LONG RUN, MICROECONOMICS

In terms of the microeconomic analysis of production and supply, a period of time in which all inputs under the control of a firm used in the production process are variable. In the long run, labor and capital are variable inputs. The long-run analysis of production reveals the key role played by returns to scale. This is one of four production time periods used in the study of microeconomics. The other three are short run, very long run, and very short run (or market period). The long run is also a time period designation used in the macroeconomic analysis of economic growth and full employment.
