A recession that raises the general price level cannot be resulted from a demand shock. This is because a demand shock either raises both the price level and real GDP or reduces them both simultaneously. However a supply shock raises one variable but reduces the other. In this case we see that a supply shock, adverse in nature, shifted the SRAS leftwards. This raises price level but reduces the real GDP

4. The 1974-1975 period experienced a recession caused by a supply shock. In particular following the Arab-Israeli War of 1973, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) took actions that increased the price of a barrel of oil from less than $3 to more than S10 (Hubbard and O'Brien, 2015). This is illustrated in the aggregate supply-aggregate demand figure below. Assume that the aggregate demand curve did not shift between 1974 and 1975. LRAS1974 LRAS1975 SRAC1975 ? SRAS:974 Price...
