An increase in labor suppliers' expectations concerning the aggregate price level will cause the Keynesian aggregate supply schedule to shift to the left and the labor supply schedule to shift to the right, reducing the money wage and output. And the labor supply schedule will both shift to the left, raising the money wage and reducing output. And the labor supply schedule will both shift to the right, reducing the money wage and raising output. And the labor supply schedule will shift to the right and the labor supply schedule will shift to the left, raising the money wage and output.
