Monetary Policy

Calculation for Macroeconomic Equilibrium

Price level (GDP deflator, 2005 = 100)	Quantity of real GDP  demanded (trillions of 2005 dollars)	Quantity of real GDP supplied (trillions of 2005 dollars)
115	8.8	12.0
110	9.4	11.0
105	10.0	10.0
100	10.6	9.0
95	11.2	8.0
90	11.8	7.0

1) Based on the table above,

a)   What is the equilibrium price level and real GDP?

b)   If potential GDP is $11.0 trillion, what does that imply about the economy's level of employment?

c)   If potential GDP is $9.0 trillion, what does that imply about the economy's level of employment?
