We aim to reach full employment. No more, no less.
It increases exponentially because you tend to have less resources as GDP goes up. Prices raise as supply dwindles.
Changes In Aggregate Supply
Like PPC, looks at potential
Changes In Price Of Inputs
Strictly y-axis change.
Supplies are the same, strictly a price change
Change In Amount of Inputs
x and y axis change.
More inputs, shift to right-down.
Less inputs, shift to left-up.
As more resources are available, you run out of them at a later time. Prices will also decrease to account for increase inventory
Change In Efficiency
Same as change in amount of inputs
