1. Lectures in Macroeconomics- Charles W. Upton Updating the Model

2. The Raw Phillips Curve  U 0

3. Updating the Model The Correct Phillips Curve  -  e U 0 UnUn

4. Updating the Model Applying Okun’s Law

5. Updating the Model Restating Okun’s Law

6. Updating the Model Restating Okun’s Law

7. Updating the Model Graphing the Function  -  e 0 UnUn 0 YfYf

8. Updating the Model Our Starting Point S SR S LR D H* w*

9. Updating the Model Our Starting Point S SR S LR D H* w* Fortunately a couple of simple steps will reconcile these two graphs

10. Updating the Model Restating the Graph P o = Price Level last year (or period) P =P o (1+  ) P e =P o (1+  e )  -  e 0 YfYf

11. Updating the Model Restating the Graph  -  e 0 YfYf

12. Updating the Model The P curve PePe P YfYf P Y=P(P)  -  e 0 YfYf

13. Updating the Model The P curve PePe P YfYf P Y=P(P) P > P e : Y>Y f. P <P e : Y<Y f. P = P e, Y=Y(P e )  Y f

14. Updating the Model The Intuition PePe P YfYf P Y=P(P) 

15. Updating the Model Our Basic Graph Y M PePe rere P YfYf P P

16. Updating the Model The Y and M Curves Y M PePe rere P A familiar friend

17. Updating the Model The Y and M Curves Y M PePe rere P Because Y=P(P), the shapes of the Y and M curves are slightly altered.

18. Updating the Model A Problem Y M PePe P YfYf PP Y<Y f

19. Updating the Model A Problem Y M PePe P YfYf PP Y<Y f The nation decides to build a monument to Irving Fisher, financed by taxing every individual $10

20. Updating the Model A Problem Y M PePe P YfYf PP Y<Y f The nation decides to build a monument to Irving Fisher, financed by taxing every individual $10 Will this Help?

21. Updating the Model The Auctioneer’s View Y M PePe P YfYf PP The increase in government spending on the monument more than offsets the reduction in consumption because of the decrease in wealth.

22. Updating the Model The Auctioneer’s View Y M PePe P YfYf PP The increase in government spending on the monument more than offsets the reduction in consumption because of the decrease in wealth. At any point along the Y curve Y D >Y S. The Y curve shifts up and to the right

23. Updating the Model The Auctioneer’s View Y M PePe P YfYf PP The reduction in wealth also means the M curve shifts up and to the left.

24. Updating the Model The Auctioneer’s View Y M PePe P YfYf PP P up; r (?); Y up

25. Updating the Model The Auctioneer’s View Y M PePe P YfYf PP P up; r (?); Y up Once again, Irving saves the day!

26. Updating the Model Our Starting Point S SR S LR D H* w* Beforehand, we did our analysis in terms of this graph. Have we left something out?

27. Updating the Model Our Starting Point S SR S LR D H* w* Beforehand, we did our analysis in terms of this graph. Have we left something out? No. That is the point of the P curve, which incorporates how H increases with P

28. Updating the Model Another Objection Workers know the (well- deserved) monument is coming, and with it increased government purchases..

29. Updating the Model Another Objection Workers know the (well- deserved) monument is coming, and with it increased government purchases.. Might we get a change in expectations?

30. Updating the Model Another Objection Workers know the (well- deserved) monument is coming, and with it increased government purchases.. Might we get a change in expectations? Perhaps, but lets keep this simple. No shift in P curve

31. Updating the Model Another Objection Workers know the (well- deserved) monument is coming, and with it increased government purchases.. Might we get a change in expectations? Perhaps, but lets keep this simple. No shift in P curve We return to this issue later

32. Updating the Model The Basic Model Y M PePe rere P YfYf P P
