Suppose the economy is initially operating at equilibrium. In each graph, move the appropriate curve to illustrate the effect of the given scenario on the economy. a. Shift the AD or SRAS curve to show the effect of an expansionary demand shock. b. Shift the AD or SRAS curve to show the effect of a supply shock that leads to stagflation. c. Shift the AD or SRAS curve to show the effect of a downturn caused by pessimistic expectations about the economy among businesses.
