CLASSICAL AGGREGATE SUPPLY CURVE: A graphical representation of the classical economic view of the relation between real production and the price level, holding all ceteris paribus aggregate supply determinants constant. The classical aggregate supply curve is a vertical line that reflects the classical view that the macroeconomy has flexible prices and maintains full employment. This aggregate supply is essentially the long-run aggregate supply curve used in modern aggregate market analysis. It should be compared with the Keynesian aggregate supply curve.

Now with bundle I (270 jogging shoes and 8 calibrators).- Producing 8 calibrators has added even more to the economy's capital.
- The cost of these 8 calibrators is 180 pairs of shoes compared to A, and the extra 4 calibrators compared to bundle E is 140 pairs of shoes.
- These 8 calibrators have increased the quantity of resources even more than bundle E, leading to an even greater shift of production possibilities curve.
- Tomorrow's production possibilities curve is even farther out than today's curve. There is more growth and a bigger shift in the curve.

KINKED-DEMAND CURVE ANALYSIS An analysis using the kinked-demand curve to explain rigid prices often found with oligopoly. The kinked-demand curve contains two distinct segments--one for higher prices that is more elastic and one for lower prices that is less elastic. Key to this analysis is that the corresponding marginal revenue curve contains three segments--one associated with the more elastic segment, one associated with the less elastic segment, and one associated with the kink. A profit-maximizing firm can then equate marginal cost to a wide range of marginal revenue values along the vertical segment of the marginal revenue curve. This suggests that marginal cost must change significantly before an oligopolistic firm is inclined to change price.
