Cooltallgal | At point C when it is in a long-run equilibrium where AD meets with Potential Output. |
pierreE14 | LR macro equilibrium: Real GPD = Potential GPD thus we need the intersection of LAS, AD AND SAS so the previous comment should be wrong, can anyone confirm me ? merci ;) |
poojacfa | Pierre, at point C, the economy is at a Long Run Eqm not Short Run. The Short Run Eqm is at point A. So, yes, u r right. :) |
bobert | LR Equilibrium occurs where LAS, AD, and SAS coincide. Is that point actually on this graph at all? I would guess not, seeing as there are only 2 curves intersecting at any of those points. |
