THREE-SECTOR AGGREGATE EXPENDITURES LINE: A graphical depiction of the relation between aggregate expenditures by the three domestic macroeconomic sectors (household, business, and government) and the level of aggregate income or production. The three-sector aggregate expenditures line combines consumption expenditures, investment expenditures, and government purchases. The slope of this aggregate expenditures line is based on the marginal propensity to consume, adjusted for marginal propensities of the other expenditures that are assumed to be induced when constructing the line. This is one of three aggregate expenditures lines based on the number of sectors included. The others are the two-sector aggregate expenditures line and the four-sector aggregate expenditures line.

|
The short-run equilibrium is given by the intersection of the negatively sloped AD curve and the positively-sloped SRAS.- An increase in AD and results in a new short-run equilibrium.
- At the new equilibrium, both real production and the price level increase.
- Real production can increase above full employment -- in the short run.
- This shift gives us an intermediate point from one long-run equilibrium to another.
