This document provides an overview of Chapter 13 from a macroeconomics textbook. It discusses three models of aggregate supply: the sticky-wage model, imperfect-information model, and sticky-price model. All three models imply a short-run tradeoff between inflation and unemployment known as the Phillips curve. The chapter also examines how the Phillips curve can shift due to changes in expected inflation and how disinflation policies require sacrificing output to reduce unemployment below the natural rate. Rational expectations theory suggests credible disinflation may require little output sacrifice.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

CHAPTER 13 Aggregate Supply
The sticky-wage model
Assumes that firms and workers negotiate contracts
and fix the nominal wage before they know what the
price level will turn out to be.
The nominal wage they set is the product of a target
real wage and the expected price level:

Unemployment and output are

Real wage is less than its target,
so firms hire more workers and
output rises above its natural rate.
Real wage exceeds its target,
so firms hire fewer workers and
output falls below its natural rate.

CHAPTER 13 Aggregate Supply
The sticky-wage model
Implies that the real wage should be
counter-cyclical, should move in the opposite
direction as output during business cycles:
In booms, when P typically rises,
real wage should fall.
In recessions, when P typically falls,
real wage should rise.
This prediction does not come true in the real
world:

CHAPTER 13 Aggregate Supply
The imperfect-information model
Assumptions:
All wages and prices are perfectly flexible,
all markets are clear.
Each supplier produces one good, consumes
many goods.
Each supplier knows the nominal price of the
good she produces, but does not know the
overall price level.
9. slide 9
CHAPTER 13 Aggregate Supply
The imperfect-information model
Supply of each good depends on its relative price:
the nominal price of the good divided by the overall
price level.
Supplier does not know price level at the time she
makes her production decision, so uses the
expected price level, P e
.
Suppose P rises but P e
does not.
Supplier thinks her relative price has risen,
so she produces more.
With many producers thinking this way,
Y will rise whenever P rises above P e
.

CHAPTER 13 Aggregate Supply
The sticky-price model
Reasons for sticky prices:
long-term contracts between firms and
customers
menu costs
firms not wishing to annoy customers with
frequent price changes
Assumption:
Firms set their own prices
(e.g., as in monopolistic competition).
11. slide 11
CHAPTER 13 Aggregate Supply
The sticky-price model
An individual firm’s desired price is
where a > 0.
Suppose two types of firms:
• firms with flexible prices, set prices as above
• firms with sticky prices, must set their price
before they know how P and Y will turn out:

CHAPTER 13 Aggregate Supply
The sticky-price model
In contrast to the sticky-wage model, the sticky-
price model implies a pro-cyclical real wage:
Suppose aggregate output/income falls. Then,
Firms see a fall in demand for their products.
Firms with sticky prices reduce production, and
hence reduce their demand for labor.
The leftward shift in labor demand causes
the real wage to fall.

Inflation inertia
In this form, the Phillips curve implies that
inflation has inertia:
In the absence of supply shocks or cyclical
unemployment, inflation will continue
indefinitely at its current rate.
Past inflation influences expectations of
current inflation, which in turn influences the
wages & prices that people set.

CHAPTER 13 Aggregate Supply
Two causes of rising & falling inflation
cost-push inflation:
inflation resulting from supply shocks
Adverse supply shocks typically raise production
costs and induce firms to raise prices,
“pushing” inflation up.
demand-pull inflation:
inflation resulting from demand shocks
Positive shocks to aggregate demand cause
unemployment to fall below its natural rate,
which “pulls” the inflation rate up.

CHAPTER 13 Aggregate Supply
The sacrifice ratio
To reduce inflation, policymakers can
contract agg. demand, causing
unemployment to rise above the natural rate.
The sacrifice ratio measures
the percentage of a year’s real GDP
that must be foregone to reduce inflation
by 1 percentage point.
A typical estimate of the ratio is 5.
28. slide 28
CHAPTER 13 Aggregate Supply
The sacrifice ratio
Example: To reduce inflation from 6 to 2 percent,
must sacrifice 20 percent of one year’s GDP:
GDP loss = (inflation reduction) x (sacrifice ratio)
= 4 x 5
This loss could be incurred in one year or spread
over several, e.g., 5% loss for each of four years.
The cost of disinflation is lost GDP.
One could use Okun’s law to translate this cost
into unemployment.
29. slide 29
CHAPTER 13 Aggregate Supply
Rational expectations
Ways of modeling the formation of expectations:
adaptive expectations:
People base their expectations of future inflation
on recently observed inflation.
rational expectations:
People base their expectations on all available
information, including information about current
and prospective future policies.
30. slide 30
CHAPTER 13 Aggregate Supply
Painless disinflation?
Proponents of rational expectations believe
that the sacrifice ratio may be very small:
Suppose u = u n and = e = 6%,
and suppose the Fed announces that it will
do whatever is necessary to reduce inflation
from 6 to 2 percent as soon as possible.
If the announcement is credible,
then e will fall, perhaps by the full 4 points.
Then, can fall without an increase in u.

1985 7.1 6.0 1.1
Total 9.5%
Total disinflation = 6.7%
32. slide 32
CHAPTER 13 Aggregate Supply
Calculating the sacrifice ratio
for the Volcker disinflation
From previous slide: Inflation fell by 6.7%,
total cyclical unemployment was 9.5%.
Okun’s law:
1% of unemployment = 2% of lost output.
So, 9.5% cyclical unemployment
= 19.0% of a year’s real GDP.
Sacrifice ratio = (lost GDP)/(total disinflation)
= 19/6.7 = 2.8 percentage points of GDP were lost
for each 1 percentage point reduction in inflation.
33. slide 33
CHAPTER 13 Aggregate Supply
The natural rate hypothesis
Our analysis of the costs of disinflation, and of
economic fluctuations in the preceding chapters,
is based on the natural rate hypothesis:
Changes in aggregate demand affect output
and employment only in the short run.
In the long run, the economy returns to
the levels of output, employment,
and unemployment described by
the classical model (Chaps. 3-8).
34. slide 34
CHAPTER 13 Aggregate Supply
An alternative hypothesis:
Hysteresis
Hysteresis: the long-lasting influence of history
on variables such as the natural rate of
unemployment.
Negative shocks may increase un,
so economy may not fully recover.
35. slide 35
CHAPTER 13 Aggregate Supply
Hysteresis: Why negative shocks
may increase the natural rate
The skills of cyclically unemployed workers may
deteriorate while unemployed, and they may not
find a job when the recession ends.
Cyclically unemployed workers may lose
their influence on wage-setting;
then, insiders (employed workers)
may bargain for higher wages for themselves.
Result: The cyclically unemployed “outsiders”
may become structurally unemployed when the
recession ends.
36. Chapter Summary
1. Three models of aggregate supply in the short run:
sticky-wage model

sticky-price model
All three models imply that output rises above its
natural rate when the price level rises above the
expected price level.
