5. Economic Performance? How much “stuff” did our economy produce this year? –How do you add electricity+grapes+doctor’s visits+toothpaste+shoelaces+movies+….? –What do they all have in common? –They can be bought/sold for $ So GDP=$PxQ of all final goods and services produced within the borders of an economy during a given year.

6. GDP=∑(PxQ) We want to measure REAL changes in the output (Q) of goods and services. $1x 100 cokes/year=$100 $100 $1x 200 cokes/year=$200 –$100  $200 correctly represents a 100% increase in coke production and sales BUT, what if the price of coke went up from $1  $2? Then, $2 x 100 cokes =$200: no real increase in coke production (Q)

7. GDP=∑(PxQ) Real GDP –Corrects for price changes Nominal GDP –Uses current prices Unemployment Inflation –Increase in overall level of prices 6-7

8. Business Cycle GDP=Employment? (PxQ) Unemployment? $Inflation? TIME (years)

9. Performance and Policy Can governments: –Promote economic growth? –Reduce severity of recession? Is monetary or fiscal policy more effective at mitigating recession? Is there a tradeoff between inflation and unemployment? 6-9

10. Economic Performance Output growth  +3.1% per year 1995-2005 Unemployment rate  4.6% in 2007 Inflation rate  2.7% in 2007 6-10

12. Economic Growth Standard of living measured by output per person (per capita) No growth in economic living standards prior to Industrial Revolution Modern economic growth –Output per person rises –Not experienced by all countries 6-12

13. Savings and Investment Saving –Tradeoff current for future consumption Investment –Financial investment –Economic investment Banks and financial institutions 6-13

14. Expectations The future is uncertain Expectations affect investment Shocks –What happens is not what you expected Demand shocks Supply shocks 6-14

15. Shocks Demand shocks and flexible prices –Price falls if demand low –Sales unchanged Demand shocks and sticky prices –Maintain inventory –Sales change –Business cycles-especially unemployment 6-15

16. Demand Shocks Cars per week Price DMDM DLDL DHDH 900 $40,000 $37,000 $35,000 Flexible Prices 6-16

17. Demand Shocks Cars per week DMDM DLDL DHDH 700 900 1150 $37,000 Fixed Prices Price 6-17

18. Sticky Prices Many prices sticky in short run –Consumers prefer stable prices –Firms want to avoid price wars All prices flexible in long run –Firms adjust to unexpected, but permanent changes in demand 6-18

21. Bureau of Economic Analysis compiles National Income and Product Accounts (GDP, NDP, NI,PI, DI) –Assess health of economy –Track long run course –Formulate policy National Income Accounting 7-21

22. Gross Domestic Product Measure of aggregate output (Q) Monetary measure ($) = PxQ Avoid multiple counting –Market value final goods –Ignore intermediate goods –Count value added 7-22

23. Gross Domestic Product Exclude financial transactions –Public transfer payments –Private transfer payments –Stock (and bond) market transactions –Excludes illegal activities Second hand sales –Sell used car to a friend –Garage/yard sales 7-23

33. Two Approaches to GDP Income approach –Count income derived from production –Wages, rental income, interest income, profit Expenditure approach –Count sum of money spent buying the final goods –Who buys the goods? 7-33

53. Nominal vs. Real GDP GDP is a dollar measure of production Using dollar values creates problems Nominal GDP =∑ Pi X Qi –Use prevailing prices Real GDP –Reflect changes in prices –Use base year price 7-53

54. GDP=∑(PxQ) We want to measure REAL changes in the output (Q) of goods and services. $1x 100 cokes/year=$100 $100 $1x 200 cokes/year=$200 –$100  $200 correctly represents a 100% increase in coke production and sales BUT, what if the price of coke went up from $1  $2? Then, $2 x 100 cokes =$200: no real increase in coke production (Q)

55. GDP Price Index Use price index to determine real GDP Price Index In Given Year =x100 Price of Market Basket In Specific Year Price of Same Basket In Base Year Real GDP = Nominal GDP Price Index (in hundredths) 7-55

56. “Basket” “Basket”= typical goods and services purchased or produced in a year (apples, gasoline, clothes, electricity, rent, books, toothpaste, bagels, …)

57. 1 st : determine the price index for each year (every year has its own price index). 2 nd : Divide the Nominal GDP for a year by that years price index to determine Real GDP

58. Prices in 1967= $100 (of a specified “basket” of goods & services). Prices in 1987= $300 for same “basket” Prices in 2010=$600 for same “basket” of goods and services

59. Price index= Pg/Pb Let 1967=base year P index 1967= Pg/Pb= $100/$100=1 or 100% (it is common to “drop the % sign) = 100 P index in 1987 P index in 2010

60. Price index= Pg/Pb Let 1967=base year P index 1967= Pg/Pb= $100/$100=1 or 100% P index in 1987= $300/$100=3 or 300% P index in 2010=

61. Price index= Pg/Pb Let 1967=base year P index 1967= Pg/Pb= $100/$100=1 or 100% P index in 1987= $300/$100=3 or 300% P index in 2010= $600/$100=6 or 600%

62. Nominal GDP 1967= $3,000 (current) Nominal GDP 1987= $9,000 (Current) Nominal GDP in 2010=$24,000 (Current) What is the REAL GDP in each year?

63. Real GDP= Nominal GDPt/PRICE INDEXt For 1967 $3,000/1=$3,000 For 1987 $9,000/3= For 2010 $24,000/6

64. Real GDP= Nominal GDPt/PRICE INDEXt For 1967 $3,000/1=$3,000 For 1987 $9,000/3= $3000 For 2010 $24,000/6

65. Real GDP= Nominal GDPt/PRICE INDEXt For 1967 $3,000/1=$3,000 For 1987 $9,000/3= $3000 For 2010 $24,000/6=$4,000
