3. the study of the large economy as a whole. It is the study of the big picture. Instead of analyzing one consumer, we analyze everyone. Instead of one business we study all businesses. What is Macroeconomics? 3

4. Why study the whole economy? The field of macroeconomics was born during the Great Depression. Government didn’t understand how to fix a depressed economy with 25% unemployment. Macro was created to: 1.Measure the health of the whole economy. 2.Guide government policies to fix problems.

13. 1.Promote Economic Growth 2.Limit Unemployment 3.Keep Prices Stable (Limit inflation) All countries have 3 Major Economic Goals:

14. Goal #1 Promote Economic Growth How does a country measure economic growth? 14

15. How do we know how well the economy is doing? National Income Accounting - Economists collect statistics on production, income, investment, and savings. The most important measure of growth is GDP. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) - the dollar value of all final goods and services produced within a country’s borders in one year. Dollar value- GDP is measured in dollars. Final Goods-GDP does not include the value of intermediate goods. One Year-GDP measures annual economic performance.

16. What does GDP tell us?  GDP measures how well the U.S. is doing financially.  How do you use GDP?  Compare to previous years (Is there growth?)  Compare policy changes (Did a new policy work?)  Compare to other countries (Are we better off?)  Which 15 countries have the highest GDP?

20. How can you measure growth from year to year? % Change in GDP = Year 2 - Year 1 Year 1 X 100 Mordor’s GDP in 2014 was $4000 Mordor’s GDP in 2015 was $5000 What is the % Change in GDP? Transylvania’s GDP in 2014 was $2,000 Transylvania’s GDP in 2015 was $2,100 What is the % Change in GDP? 20

21. Does GDP accurately measure standard of living?  Standard of living can be measured, in part, by how well the economy is doing…But it needs to be adjusted to reflect the size of the nation’s population.  GDP Per Capita (per person)  GDP divided by the population. It identifies on average how many products each person makes.  GDP per capita is the best measure of a nation’s standard of living.

22. What are the top 10 most populated countries? 22 Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

23. GDP Per Capita 23 Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

24. Why do some countries have higher GDPs than others?....PRODUCTIVITY 1. Economic System Example#1: Capitalist countries have historically had more economic growth. Capital (like robots) can produce more than people Countries with more capital, can produce more products than countries without a lot of capital. 2. Property Rights 3. Capital Capital stock is machinery, tools, and man-made resources. India has over a billion people (human resources) but relatively few capital resources and therefore a lower GDP than the U.S. Japan has few natural resources but a high GDP 4. Human Capital (Knowledge) 5. Natural Resources Syria has a lower GDP because it is mostly desert.

25. 2. Nonproduction Transactions Financial Transactions (nothing produced) - Ex: Stocks, bonds, Real estate Used Goods - Ex: Old cars, used clothes What is NOT included in GDP? 1.Intermediate Goods Goods inside the final goods don’t count. EX: Price of finished car, not the stock radio or tires. 3. Non-Market and Illegal Activities Things made at home- household production Ex: Unpaid work, black markets, drugs 25

26. Calculating GDP Two Ways of calculating GDP: 1. Expenditures Approach -Add up all the spending on final goods and services produced in a given year. 2. Income Approach -Add up all the income that resulted from selling all final goods and services produced in a given year. Adding up how much was spent on goods and services and how much income was earned should generate the same number 26

27. Four components of GDP: 1.Consumer Spending- 70% of U.S. GDP Purchases of final goods by private individuals. Ex: $5 Sandwich at Subway 2.Investment- 15% of U.S. GDP Businesses spending tools and equipment. Ex: Walmart buys self checkout machines 3. Government Spending- 20% of U.S. GDP Ex: School, tanks, but NOT transfer payments 4. Net Exports- Exports ( X ) – Imports ( M ) Ex: Value of 3 Ford Focuses minus 2 Hondas Expenditures Approach

28. Calculating GDP 28 GDP = C + I + G + X n

29. Included or not Included in GDP? For each situation, identify if it is included in GDP the identify the category C, I, G, or X n 1.$10.00 for movie tickets 2.$5M Increase in defense expenditures 3.$45 for used economics textbook 4.Ford makes new $2M factory 5.$20K Toyota made and sold in Mexico 6.$10K Profit from selling stocks 7.$15K car made in US, sold in Canada 8.$10K Tuition to attend college 9.$120 Social Security payment to Bob 10.Farmer purchases new $100K tractor 29

33. The income approach adds up all the income earned from producing goods and services 1.Labor Income - Purchases of final goods by private individuals. Ex: $5 Sandwich at Subway 2.Rental Income - Income earned from property owned by individuals 3. Interest Income- Interest earned from loaning money to businesses 4. Profit - Money businesses have after paying all their costs These are called FACTOR PAYMENTS. Labor earns wages, land earns rent, capital earns interest, and entrepreneurship earns profit. Income Approach

34. 34 What are some problems with using GDP to measure the nation’s standard of living?

35. Nominal GDP vs. Real GDP 35

36. How can you figure out which is the most popular movie of all time? What is the problem with this method? Nominal Box Office Receipts 36 Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

37. How can you figure out which is the most popular movie of all time? REAL Box Office Receipts (adjusted for inflation) Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

38. The Problem with GDP If a country’s GDP increased from $4 Billion to $5 Billion in one year, is the country experiencing economic growth? Did the country definitely produce 25% more products? What is Inflation? - A rising general level of prices EX: If apples are the only thing being produced $10 Year 1: 10 apples at $1 each; GDP = $10 $12.50 Year 2: 10 apples x $1.25; GDP = $12.50 GDP is rising, but country is worse off! 38

39. Real vs. Nominal GDP Nominal GDP - GDP measured in current prices. It does not account for inflation from year to year. Real GDP - GDP expressed in constant, or unchanging, dollars. Real GDP adjusts for inflation. REAL GDP IS THE BEST MEASURE OF ECONOMIC GROWTH! 39

40. Real vs. Nominal GDP Example 2008 10 cars at $15,000 each = $150,000 10 trucks at $20,000 each = $200,000 Nominal GDP = $350,000 2009 10 cars at $16,000 each = $160,000 10 trucks at $21,000 each= $210,000 Nominal GDP = $370,000 The GDP in year 2008 shows the dollar value of all final goods produced. The nominal GDP in year 2009 is higher which suggests that the economy is improving. But how much is the REAL GDP? How do you get it? Use 2008 Prices. The Real GDP for 2009 is the same as 2008 after we adjust for inflation. 2009 10 cars at $15,000 each = $150,000 10 trucks at $20,000 each= $200,000 REAL GDP = $350,000 40 Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

41. Real GDP “deflates” nominal GDP by adjusting for inflation in terms of a base year prices.
