1. The Birth of Macroeconomics

 Economics study how society allocates

scarce resources to meet unlimited demands
of people.

1. The Birth of Macroeconomics

 Microeconomics: shows consumers and

firms how to maximize their benefits in the
economy (MU>= MC)

Supply > Demand

The whole economy’s inefficiency

2. What is Macroeconomics?
2.1. Definition
 Macroeconomics is the study of economy-
wide phenomena, including inflation,
unemployment and economic growth.

2.2. Its Study

 The whole economy

2.3. Contents for researching

 National yield: the most important measure of

a nation’s achievement (GDP, GNP).
 Inflation: is an increase in the overall level of
prices.
 Unemployment: expresses the situation of
people who are in working ages, able to work,
seeking jobs but haven’t found it yet.
 International transactions: Export - Import

3. Positive versus normative analysis

 Positive statements: are statements that

attempt to describe the world as it is.
o Called descriptive analysis

 4/9/2020

3. Positive versus normative analysis

 Normative statement: are statements about

how the world should be.
o Called prescriptive analysis

10

3. Positive versus normative analysis

 An increase in the minimum wage will cause a

decrease in employment among the least-
skilled.
---> POSITIVE
 The income gains from a higher minimum
wage are worth more than any slightly
reductions in employment
---> NORMATIVE

3. Positive versus Normative Analysis

 State governments should be allowed to collect

from tobacco companies the costs of treating
smoking-relating illnesses among the poor.
---> NORMATIVE

 Higher federal budget deficits will cause interest

rates to increase.
---> POSITIVE

Macroeconomics vs. Microeconomics

 Should FPT invest in the technology of

producing computers?
---> Microeconomics
 Does the increase in input costs cause CPI to
increase in the upcoming period?
---> Macroeconomics
 How does the productivity affect GDP?

 Inputs: Beyond the control of government

− External events: include uneconomic
events such as: weather, disaster, war…
Average demand and supply
− Internal events: include behaviors and
management tools of Government such as:
fiscal policy, monetary policy… Interference into the society
+Fiscal
+Monetary

5. Macroeconomics System output: a series of indicators

ex:growth, employment rate,..
 The black box: where the interaction between
AD and AS happens.
− It decides the quality of outputs. black box: most important role
of the three factors
 Outputs: show the quality of the economy
through economic growth, employment, trade
balance…

6. Objectives and management tools Scarcity, each country's objective varies

from one to another
Effective
+effective: in utilizing scarce resources
+stable: exploit selectively, think for the
future generation
Fair GOALS Stable
+growth:guarantee increase in production
(GDP,...)
+fair: income distribution so that the gap
Growth between the rich and the poor doesnt
happen, which is a cause for instability

government expenditure and taxation

6. Objectives and Management tools

 Fiscal policy: G and T. money supply

net export
 Monetary policy: MS and i -> Y. balance of payment
 Income policy: P, W -> limit inflation.

 External economic policy: exchange rate,

tariff and non-tariff -> NX and BOP.

Summary

 Macroeconomics is the study of economy-wide

phenomena, including inflation, unemployment
and economic growth.
 Its study is the whole economy.
 Contents for researching include national yield,
inflation, unemployment and trade balance.
 There are 2 main methodology of study such as
positive economics and normative economics.

1. GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT (GDP)

1.1. Definition
1.2. Measuring GDP
1.3. Nominal GDP, real GDP and GDP deflator
1.5. GNP vs GDP
1.6. Other measures of national income

final goods and services: Consumer goods, or final goods, are goods sold to
consumers for their own use or enjoyment and not as means for further
economic production activity. 23

Intermediate goods are typically used directly by a producer, sold to another

company to make another intermediary good, or sold to another company to
make a finished product.
1.1 Definition market value
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the
market value of all final goods and services P (market price set by the law of
produced within a country in a given period of demand and supply) x Q
time.

* underground economy activity: The

The market price is the current underground economy refers to economic
price at which an asset or service transactions that are deemed illegal, either
can be bought or sold. The market because the goods or services traded are
price of an asset or service is
24

unlawful in nature, or because transactions

determined by the forces of supply fail to comply with governmental reporting
and demand. The price at which requirements.
quantity supplied equals quantity
demanded is the market price.

classified as either final or intermediate good depends on the purpose of consumption

1.1 Definition

 “GDP is the Market Value…”

∟ Output is valued at market prices.

 “…of All Final…”

∟It records only value of final goods, not
intermediate goods.

25

1.1 Definition
• “ Final goods and services…”
∟ Are the ones which are not used to
produced another goods.
∟ They are only sold to final consumers.

 “ Intermediate goods and services…”

∟ Are the ones used to be inputs to
produce another goods and used up once
time in the production process

1.1 Definition

 “…In a Given Period of Time”

∟ It measures the value of production that
takes place within a specific interval of time,
usually a year or a quarter (three months).

28

1.1 Definition

In short:
1. To compute the total value of different G&S,
GDP uses market prices.
2. Intermediate goods are not counted in GDP.
3. The treatment of Inventories:
 If produced G&S spoil, it does not alter
GDP.
 If produced G&S is put into inventory,
GDP rises.
29

1.1 Definition

In short:
4. Some G&S are not sold in the market and
do not have market prices, we must use
an estimate of their value.
5. Used goods are not included in GDP
calculation.

equal expenditure.
 There are 2 ways of computing GDP

Total expenditure Total income earned

on domestically – by domestically-
produced final located factors of
G&S production

1.2. Measuring GDP examples:

-durable goods: healthcare, education
Expenditure Approach -nondurable goods: one-time consumption, short time
Components of expenditure: -services:
 Consumption (C):
∟the value of all G&S bought by households.
Includes:

Durable Nondurable
goods Services
goods

35

1.2. Measuring GDP dựa vào định nghĩa: phải có a new product being produced.
Expenditure Approach theo nhà kt: sinh lời là goal

 Investment (I):
∟Investment spending by businesses and
households. Includes:
 Business fixed investment: Spending on
plant and equipment that firms will use to
produce other goods & services.
 Residential fixed investment: Spending on
housing units by consumers and landlords.
 Inventory investment: The change in the
value of all firms’ inventories. material, semi-product, final/ finshed product

36

1.2. Measuring GDP vulnerable people are not taken into account when considering
Expenditure Approach g.purchases since there is only one-sided
eg: unemployment insurance payment
 Government Purchases (G):
∟ The spending on goods and services by local,
state, and federal governments.
∟ G excludes transfer payments.
(e.g, unemployment insurance payments).

not calculated into GDP because of the transfering from the government to the recipient.

"exports minus imports": gdp đo lương giá trị mặt hàng sx nội địa
1.2. Measuring GDP net export = X - M (import - đc tính bao gồm trong consumption)
Expenditure Approach
 Net Exports (NX):
∟ Exports minus imports.

GDP = C + I + G + NX

 Where:
Y = GDP = the value of total output
C + I + G + NX = aggregate expenditure

38

A question for you

Suppose a firm:
 Produces $10 million worth of final goods
 But only sells $9 million worth
Does this violate the
Expenditure = output identity?

39

Why output = expenditure

 Unsold output goes into inventory, and is

counted as “inventory investment”…whether the
inventory buildup was intentional or not.
 In effect, we are assuming that firms purchase
their unsold output.

40

13
 4/9/2020

1.2. Measuring GDP household: w, i ,R

Income/Factor Cost Approach
firm: profit
 It measures GDP by adding together all
incomes paid by firms to households for government: Td (direct tax - excluded because it has been included
services of the factors of production they hire. in income), Ti (indirect tax - corporate income tax)
 GDP is the sum of incomes in the economy
during a given period. Dep: depreciation (khấu hao tài sản)

GDP = W + i + R +Pr +Dep +T𝒊

41

EXERCISE expenditure approach: GDP = C + I + G + NX = 200 + 150

(DÙNG GROSS INVESTMENT) + 100 + 100 - 50 = 500
gross investment = net investment + dep (đầu tư mới hoàn toàn
 In 2017, Vietnam had statistic data according to + đầu tư bù đắp)
the territory as following:
Gross Investment = 150 Consumption = 200
Net Investment = 50 Government purchase = 100 income approach: GDP = W + i +R+ Pr + dep + Ti
Wages = 230 Interests = 25
Rent = 35 Indirect tax = 50
Profit = 60 Net factor income = -50
Export = 100 CPI 2002 = 120
Import = 50 CPI 2003 = 150

Find GDP in expenditure approach and

income approach.

1.2. Measuring GDP

Value Added Approach
 A firm’s value added is: the value of its output
minus the value of the intermediate goods the
firm used to produce that output.
 GDP is counted by summing up VA of all firms
in the economy together.

GDP = ∑ VA of firms
= ∑ (G.O – I.I)

o G.O : Gross Output

o I.I : Intermediate Inputs 43

14
 4/9/2020

EXERCISE value added : 1; 2; 3

GDP = tổng = 6
 A farmer grows a bushel of wheat and sells it to
a miller for $1.00.
 The miller turns the wheat into flour and sells it
to a baker for $3.00.
 The baker uses the flour to make a loaf of bread
and sells it to an engineer for $6.00.
 ƒThe engineer eats the bread.
Compute:
– value added at each stage of production
– GDP
44

1.3. Real Vs. Nominal GDP

 GDP is the value of all final goods and services

produces.
 Nominal GDP measures these values using
current prices.

1.3. Real Vs. Nominal GDP

 Changes in nominal GDP can be due to
changes in:
• Prices
• Quantities of output produced
 Changes in real GDP can only be due to
changes in quantities.

1.3. GDP Deflator

 The GDP deflator

∟ is a measure of the average price level in price index
the economy.
∟ It shows changes in price in the current year
compared to the based year -> measure
inflation.

1.3. GDP Deflator

Understanding the GDP deflator
Example with 3 goods
For good i = 1, 2, 3

65

19
 4/9/2020

Inflation is the decline of a given currency's purchasing power over

time; or, alternatively, a general rise in prices. A quantitative estimate of
2.1. Definition the rate at which the decline in purchasing power occurs can be
reflected in the increase of an average price level of a basket of
selected goods and services in an economy over some period of time.
 CPI
∟ Is a measure of the overall cost of the goods The rise in the general level of prices, often expressed
and services bought by a typical consumer. as a percentage, means that a unit of currency
∟Used to effectively buys less than it did in prior periods.
• Track changes in the household’s cost of
living.
• Adjust many contracts for inflation
(i.e. “COLAs”)
• Allow comparisons of dollar figures from
different years
66

2.2. How the BLS constructs the CPI fixed in a period of time

1. Survey consumers to determine composition of

the typical consumer’s “basket” of goods.
2. Every month, collect data on prices of all items
in the basket; compute cost of basket
3. CPI in any month equals

Cost of basket in that month

4. CORRECTING ECONOMIC VARIABLES

FOR THE EFFECTS OF INFLATION

 Price indexes are used to correct for the effects

of inflation when comparing dollar figures from
different times.

4.3. Real and Nominal Interest Rates

 Interest represents a payment in the future for a

transfer of money in the past.

 The nominal interest rate is the interest rate

usually reported and not corrected for inflation.
• It is the interest rate that a bank pays.

 The real interest rate is the nominal interest rate

that is corrected for the effects of inflation.

4.3. Real and Nominal Interest Rates

 You deposit $1,000 for one year.

 Nominal interest rate was 10%.
 During the year inflation was 7%.
Real interest rate = Nominal interest rate –

CHAPTER SUMMARY

1. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) measures both

total income and total expenditure on the
economy’s output of goods & services.
2. Nominal GDP values output at current prices;
real GDP values output at constant prices.
Changes in output affect both measures,
but changes in prices only affect nominal GDP.
3. GDP is the sum of consumption, investment,
government purchases, and net exports.

CHAPTER SUMMARY

4. The overall level of prices can be measured by

either
 the Consumer Price Index (CPI),
the price of a fixed basket of goods
purchased by the typical consumer, or

1.1. Why AD Curve Slopes Downward

Y = C + I + G + NX
∟ Assume G fixed by Government policy.
∟ To understand the slope of AD, we must
consider how a change in P affects C, I and
NX.

93

1.1.1. The Wealth Effect (P and C) more quanitities -> creates a feeling of being wealthier ->behavioral
economy (cognitive, psychology) [make rational choices]
 Suppose P falls
o The dollar people hold buy more goods and
services.
o People feel wealthier.
 Result: C rises.

94

private sector
1.1.2. The Interest-Rate Effect (P and I)

 Suppose P falls price decreases -> money demand decreases->supply of loanable

funds increases -. interest rates decrease -> investment incrases ->
o Buying goods & services requires fewer AD increases
dollars.
o To reduce their holdings of money, people
lend out.
o This makes interest rates decrease.
 Result: I rises.

1.1.3. The Exchange-Rate Effect (P and NX) exchange rate-> specify the economy and its unit of currency

 Suppose P falls P falls -> interest rates decrease

o US interest rates fall (the interest rate
effect).
o Domestic investors desire more foreign
bonds. lãi suất cao cho vốn đầu tư thì sẽ đc preferred. When interest rates fall
o Higher supply for $ in foreign exchange lower, those domestic companies choose to invest in other countries ->
market. convert $ into vnd, thus increasing the supply of $ -> the exchange rate
o US exchange rate depreciates. for $ lowers-> exports from US increase (making profits) and import
o US imports fall and exports rise. decreases -> Net exports increase
 Result: NX rises.
96

SUM UP

 There are 3 distinct but related reasons a fall in

P level increases AD:
1. Consumers are wealthier -> stimulates the
demand for consumption goods.
2. Interest rates fall -> stimulates the demand
for investment goods.
3. The currency depreciates -> stimulates the
demand for NX.

97

1.2. Why AD Curve Might Shift

 Any event that changes C, I, G or NX –

except a change in P – will shift the AD
curve.

 The aggregate – supply curve shows the

total quantity of goods and services that
firms produce and sell at any given price
level.

2. THE AGGREGATE SUPPLY (AS) CURVE

 In the long run, the AS curve is vertical.

 In the short run, the AS curve is upward

2.1. The long – run Aggregate Supply

Curve (LRAS)
 The natural rate of output (Y*) is the
amount of output the economy produces
when unemployment is at its natural rate.

 Y* is also called potential output.

105

2.1.1. Why LRAS Is Vertical?

 Y* determined by the economy’s supplies of

labor, capital, and natural resources and on
the level of technology.

 An increase in P does not affect any of

these, so it does not affect Y*.

106

2.1.2. Why the LRAS Curve Might Shift ?

 Any event that changes any of the

determinants of Y* will shift LRAS.

2.2.1.2. The Sticky-Wage Theory

 If P < PE: Production is less profitable, so

firms decrease output and employment.
 Lower P --> lower Y, so the SRAS curve
slopes upward.

EXERCISE

 Explain whether each of the following events

will increase, decrease or have no effect on
the AD, AS or both.
1. Households decide to save a larger share
of their income.
2. Florida orange groves suffer a prolonged
period of below-freezing temperatures.
3. Increased job opportunities overseas

EXERCISE
 For each of the following events, explain the
short-run and long-run effects on output and the
price level, assuming policymakers take no
action.
1. The stock market declines sharply, reducing
consumers’ wealth
2. The federal government increases spending
on national defense
3. A recession oversea causes foreigners to
buy fewer US goods.

CHAPTER SUMMARY

 All societies experience short-run economic

fluctuations around long-run trends.
 These fluctuations are irregular and largely
unpredictable.
 When recessions occur, real GDP and other
measures of income, spending, and production
fall, and unemployment rises.

CHAPTER SUMMARY

 Economists analyze short-run economic

fluctuations using the aggregate demand and
aggregate supply model.

 According to the model of aggregate demand

and aggregate supply, the output of goods and
services and the overall level of prices adjust to
balance aggregate demand and aggregate
supply.

43
 4/9/2020

CHAPTER SUMMARY

 The aggregate-demand curve slopes downward

for three reasons: a wealth effect, an interest
rate effect, and an exchange rate effect.
 Any event or policy that changes consumption,
investment, government purchases, or net
exports at a given price level will shift the
aggregate-demand curve.

CHAPTER SUMMARY

 In the long run, the aggregate supply curve is

vertical.
 The short-run, the aggregate supply curve is
upward sloping.
 The are three theories explaining the upward
slope of short-run aggregate supply: the
misperceptions theory, the sticky-wage theory,
and the sticky-price theory.

CHAPTER SUMMARY

 One possible cause of economic fluctuations is

a shift in aggregate demand.
 A second possible cause of economic
fluctuations is a shift in aggregate supply.
 Stagflation is a period of falling output and rising
prices.
