Q

” According to Keynes, AS may be assumed to be perfectly elastic in an economy where full employment of resources is yet to be achieved. Accordingly, AD becomes the principal determinant of equilibrium level of income.” Please explain!!

A

Aggregate supply can be assumed to be perfectly elastic in an economy where full employment of resources is yet to be reached means that an economy not at its potential can witness fluctuations in supply due to changes in price . Supply can be altered by decreasing or increasing price . This can happen because there are more resources present that are yet to be exploited . So suppose price rises supply can rise by using those resources . Hence aggregate demand becomes the determinant of equilibrium income . This happens because total income can be calculated by demand in the economy as a whole .
