23 Microeconomics vs. Macroeconomics Microeconomics Study of how households and firms Make decisions Interact in markets Macroeconomics Study of economy-wide phenomena Including inflation, unemployment, and economic growth 2 What Macroeconomics Is About Macroeconomics: The study of structure and performance of national economies and government policies that affect economic performance. Issues addressed by macroeconomists: Long-run economic growth Business cycles Unemployment Inflation The international economy Macroeconomic policy Gross Domestic Product GDP (gross domestic product) is the market value of final goods and services newlyproduced within a nationduring a fixed period of time The Economys Income and Expenditure Gross Domestic Product (GDP) Measures the total income of everyone in the economy Measures the total expenditure on the economys output of goods and services For an economy as a whole Income must equal expenditure Circular-flow diagram assumptions: All goods and services bought by households Households - -spend all of their income 5 Figure The circular-flow diagram 1 6 Households buy goods and services from firms, and firms use their revenue from sales to pay wages to workers, rent to landowners, and profit to firm owners. GDP equals the total amount spent by households in the market for goods and services. It also equals the total wages, rent, and profit paid by firms in the markets for the factors of production. Measurement of Gross Domestic Product Gross domestic product (GDP) Market value of all final goods and services Produced within a country In a given period of time GDP is the market value Market prices - reflect the value of the goods 7 Measurement of Gross Domestic Product of all All items produced in the economy And sold legally in markets Excludes most items Produced and sold illicitly Produced and consumed at home final Value of intermediate goods is already included in the prices of the final goods 8 Measurement of Gross Domestic Product goods and services Tangible goods & intangible services produced Goods and services currently produced within a country Goods and services produced domestically, regardless of the nationality of the producer in a given period of time A year or a quarter 9 The Components of GDP Y =C +I +G +NX This is a iIdentity, Y =GDP Where: C =consumption I =investment G =government purchases NX =net exports 10 The Components of GDP Consumption (C): Spending by domestic households on final goods and services (including those produced abroad) Three categories Consumer durables (examples: cars, TV sets, furniture, major appliances) Nondurable goods (examples: food, clothing, fuel) Services (examples: education, health care, financial services, transportation) 11 The Components of GDP Investment (I): Spending for new capital goods (fixed ivestment) plus inventory investment Three categories Business (or nonresidential) fixed investment: Spending by businesses on structures and equipment and software Residential fixed investment: Spending on the construction of houses and apartment buildings Inventory investment: (increases in firms inventory holdings) 12 The Components of GDP Government purchases of goods and services (G): Spending by the government on goods or services Not all government expenditures are purchases of goods and services Some are payments that are not made in exchange for current goods and services: Social Security payments Welfare unemployment benefits interest payments on the government debt Some government spending is for capital goods that add to the nations capital stock, such as highways, airports, bridges, and water and sewer systems 13 The Components of GDP Net exports (NX):exports minus imports Exports: goods produced in the country that are purchased by foreigners Imports: goods produced abroad that are purchased by residents in the country Imports are subtracted from GDP, as they represent goods produced abroad, and were included in consumption, investment, and government purchases 14 GDP of the United States =$14 trillion GDP per person =$45,838 Consumption =$32,225 per person Investment =$7,061 per person Government purchases =$8,912 per person Net exports =$2,360 per person The components of U.S. GDP, 2007 15 Table U.

When reading this table, recall the identity Y =C +I +G +NX. The components of U.S. GDP 2008 Real Versus Nominal GDP Real GDP Production of goods and services Valued at constant prices Designate one year as base year Not affected by changes in prices For the base year Nominal GDP =Real GDP 18 Real Versus Nominal GDP Total spending rises from one year to the next Economy - producing a larger output of goods and services And/or goods and services are being sold at higher prices Nominal GDP Production of goods and services Valued at current prices 19 Table Real and Nominal GDP 2 20 Prices and Quantities Year Price of hot dogs Quantity of hot dogs Price of hamburgers Quantity of hamburgers 2008 2009 2010 $1 $2 $3 100 150 200 $2 $3 $4 50 100 150 Calculating Nominal GDP 2008 2009 2010 ($1 per hot dog 100 hot dogs) +($2 per hamburger 50 hamburgers) =$200 ($2 per hot dog 150 hot dogs) +($3 per hamburger 100 hamburgers) =$600 ($3 per hot dog 200 hot dogs) +($4 per hamburger 150 hamburgers) =$1,200 Calculating Real GDP (base year 2008) 2008 2009 2010 ($1 per hot dog 100 hot dogs) +($2 per hamburger 50 hamburgers) =$200 ($1 per hot dog 150 hot dogs) +($2 per hamburger 100 hamburgers) =$350 ($1 per hot dog 200 hot dogs) +($2 per hamburger 150 hamburgers) =$500 Calculating the GDP Deflator 2008 2009 2010 ($200 / $200) 100 =100 ($600 / $350) 100 =171 ($1,200 / $500) 100 =240 This table shows how to calculate real GDP, nominal GDP, and the GDP deflator for a hypothetical economy that produces only hot dogs and hamburgers. Real Versus Nominal GDP The GDP deflator Measure of the price level Ratio of nominal GDP to real GDP times 100 =100 for the base year Measures the current level of prices relative to the level of prices in the base year Inflation Economys overall price level is rising 21 Real Versus Nominal GDP Inflation rate Percentage change in some measure of the price level from one period to the next The GDP deflator Can be used to take inflation out of nominal GDP (deflate nominal GDP) 22 Real Versus Nominal GDP in Vietnam The GDP data Real GDP grows over time Growth is not steady Recession Real GDP declines Lower income Rising unemployment Falling profits Increased bankruptcies Real GDP over recent history 24 Figure Real GDP in the United States 2 25 This figure shows quarterly data on real GDP for the U.S. economy since 1965. Recessionsperiods of falling real GDPare marked with the shaded vertical bars. Figure Economic growth rate of Vietnam (1986- 2010) Source: ADB GDP - Good Measure of Economic Well-being? GDP single measure of the economic well-being of a society Economys total income Economys total expenditure Larger GDP Good life Better healthcare Better educational systems Measure - ability to obtain many of the inputs into a worthwhile life 27 GDP - Good Measure of Economic Well-being? GDP not a perfect measure of well-being Doesnt include Leisure Value of almost all activity that takes place outside markets Quality of the environment No distribution of income 28 Rich countries - Higher GDP per person Better Life expectancy Literacy Internet usage Poor countries - Lower GDP per person Worse Life expectancy Literacy Internet usage International differences in GDP and the quality of life 29 Low GDP per person More infants with low birth weight Higher rates of infant mortality Higher rates of maternal mortality Higher rates of child malnutrition Less common access to safe drinking water Fewer school-age children are actually in school Fewer teachers per student Fewer televisions; Fewer telephones Fewer paved roads Fewer households with electricity International differences in GDP and the quality of life 30 Table GDP and the quality of life 3 31 Country Real GDP per person (2005) Life expectancy Adult literacy (% of population) Internet usage (% of population) United States Japan Germany Russia Mexico Brazil China Indonesia India Pakistan Bangladesh Nigeria $41,890 31,267 29,461 10,845 10,751 8,402 6,757 3,843 3,452 2,370 2,053 1,128 78 years 82 79 65 76 72 72 70 64 65 63 47 99% 99 99 99 92 89 91 90 61 50 47 69 63 % 67 45 15 18 19 9 7 3 7 0.3 4 The table shows GDP per person and three other measures of the quality of life for twelve major countries. Table GNP vs. GDP GNP (gross national product) =output produced by domestically owned factors of production GDP =output produced withina nation GDP =GNP NFP (2.2) NFP =net factor payments from abroad =payments to domesticallyowned factors located abroad minus payments to foreign factors located domestically Table GNP vs. GDP Example: Engineering revenues for a road built by a U.S. company in Vietnam: part of U.S. GNP (built by a U.S. factor of production), not U.S. GDP part of Vietnam GDP (built in Vietnam), not Vietnam GNP Difference between GNP and GDP is small for the United States, about 0.2%, but higher for countries that have many citizens working abroad Other Measures of Income Gross National Product (GNP) is the total income earned by a nations permanent residents. Net National Product (NNP) NNP =GNP- Depreciation(D p) National Income (NI) is the total income earned by a nations residents in the production of goods and services NI= NNP- Indirect business taxes +Business subsidies +statistical discrepancy Other measures of income Personal Income (PI): is the income that households and noncorporate business receive. PI=NI retained earning corporate income taxes contributions for social insurance +interest income +government transfers Disposable Personal Income (Pi d ) is the income thats households and noncorporate business have left after satisfying all their obligations to the government. PI d =PI- Personal taxes- Nontax payments Chapter Measuring the Cost of Living 24 The Consumer Price Index Consumer price index (CPI) Measure of the overall cost of goods & services bought by a typical consumer How the consumer price index is calculated 1.Fix the basket 2.Find the prices 3.Compute the baskets cost 2 The Consumer Price Index How the consumer price index is calculated 4. Chose a base year and compute the CPI Price of basket of goods & services in current year Divided by price of basket in base year Times 100 3 The Consumer Price Index 5. Compute the inflation rate Percentage change in the price index from the preceding period Table Calculating the CPI and the inflation rate: an example 1 5 Step 1: Survey consumers to determine a fixed basket of goods Basket =4 hot dogs, 2 hamburgers Step 2: Find the price of each good in each year Year Price of hot dogs Price of hamburgers 2008 2009 2010 $1 2 3 $2 3 4 Step 3: Compute the cost of the basket of goods in each year 2008 2009 2010 ($1 per hot dog 4 hot dogs) +($2 per hamburger 2 hamburgers) =$8 per basket ($2 per hot dog 4 hot dogs) +($3 per hamburger 2 hamburgers) =$14 per basket ($3 per hot dog 4 hot dogs) +($4 per hamburger 2 hamburgers) =$20 per basket Step 4: Choose one year as a base year (2008) and compute the CPI in each year 2008 2009 2010 ($8 / $8) 100 =100 ($14 / $8) 100 =175 ($20 / $8) 100 =250 Step 5: Use the consumer price index to compute the inflation rate from previous year 2009 2010 (175 100) / 100 100 =75% (250 175) / 175 100 =43% Figure The typical basket of goods and services 1 6 This figure shows how the typical consumer divides spending among various categories of goods and services. The Bureau of Labor Statistics calls each percentage the relative importance of the category. Figure The basket of goods and services in calculating CPI in Vietnam (2010) The Consumer Price Index Producer price index (PPI) Measure of the cost of a basket of goods and services bought by firms Problems in measuring the cost of living Substitution bias Introduction of new goods Unmeasured quality change 8 The Consumer Price Index The GDP deflator vs. consumer price index GDP deflator Ratio of nominal GDP to real GDP Reflects prices of all goods & services produced domestically CPI Reflects prices of goods & services bought by consumers 9 The Consumer Price Index The GDP deflator vs. consumer price index GDP deflator Compares the price of currently producedgoods and services to the price of the same goods and services in the base year CPI Compares price of a fixed basket of goods and services to the price of the basket in the base year 10 Figure Two measures of inflation 2 11 This figure shows the inflation ratethe percentage change in the level of prices as measured by the GDP deflator and the consumer price index using annual data since 1965. Notice that the two measures of inflation generally move together. Correcting Economic Variables for Effects of Inflation Dollar figures from different times Indexation Automatic correction by law or contract of a dollar amount for the effects of inflation. A cost of living allowance- COLA A COLA automatically raises the wage when the CPI rises 12 The Consumer Price Index Real and nominal interest rates Nominal interest rate (i) Interest rate as usually reported without a correction for the effects of inflation Real interest rate (r) Interest rate corrected for the effects of inflation r=i Inflation rate 13 Nominal interest rate Always exceeds the real interest rate U.S. economy has experienced rising consumer prices in every year Inflation is variable Real and nominal interest rates do not always move together Periods of deflation Real interest rate exceeds the nominal interest rate Interest rates in the U.S. Economy 14 Figure Real and nominal interest rates 3 15 This figure shows nominal and real interest rates using annual data since 1965. The nominal interest rate is the rate on a 3-month Treasury bill. The real interest rate is the nominal interest rate minus the inflation rate as measured by the consumer price index. Notice that nominal and real interest rates often do not move together.
