  • actual output level > potential output level

3
New cards
  • define negative output gap

  • actual output level < potential output level

4

  • state why output gaps are difficult to measure

  • maximum productive potential → theoretical not observable

  • changes in the factors that affect LRAS → changes the maximum productive potential of the economy
