Aggregate demand exceeds
aggregate supply causing price
increases. The price increase
lowers real wages. The lag in
expectations of price increases
in the labor market expands the
system beyond full
employment and GDP is above
potential GDP.

Increasing prices cause a decrease in
the real money supply. Less real
money puts upward pressure on
interest rates, choking off investment.
The decrease in spending is a fall in
aggregate demand, bringing it into
line with aggregate supply.
In the labor market wages adjust to
prices so real wage returns to the full
employment level and GDP moves
back to potential GDP.
