when does a shift in supply happen?

Total Revenue = P x Q (price multiplied by equilibrium quanitity)
Cyclical Unemployment

Velocity of money – average numer of times a typical dollar is used during a year

M – dollars in circulation
What is isolated economy

What is the equation for CPI
CPI in year t = 100 × (cost of bundle in year t) / (cost of bundle in base year)
what is Okun's law
if cyclical unemployment increased from 1% to 2%--output gap would rise from 2% to 4%
