Lesson 14: Aggregate Supply | Unit 3: The Curves

Page: 8 of 20

The long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) curve captures the relationship between the price level and the aggregate supply of real production in the long run.- GDP deflator, the price level, is measured on the vertical axis. Real GDP, the real production, is measured on the horizontal axis.
Highlights:- The LRAS is a straight, vertical line.
- The price level does not affect the aggregate supply of real production.
- The supply is real production given that all resources are fully employed.
- Flexible prices ensures that full employment production is maintained, in the long run.

AGGREGATE SUPPLY SHIFTS Changes in the aggregate supply determinants shift both the short-run aggregate supply curve and the long-run aggregate supply curve. The mechanism is comparable to that for market supply determinants and market supply. There are two options--an increase in aggregate supply and a decrease in aggregate supply. An increase in resource quantity or quality or a decrease in resource price shifts one or both of the aggregate supply curves to right. A decrease in resource quantity or quality or an increase in resource price shifts one or both of the aggregate supply curves to left.
