because it compare actual and potential output and how to achieve it
Negative demand shocks will do what to long run equalibrium
Decrease price and GDP stay the same
Recessionary gap vs Inflationary gap
Recessionary = actual output is lower than potential Inflationary = actual output is higher than potential
