2.1. In the AD-AS model, what are the factors that may cause the aggregate demand to shift from AD2 to AD3? What is the difference between demand pull inflation, cost push inflation and recession?

2.2. In macroeconomics, the immediate short run is known as a length of time when both input prices and output prices are fixed. In the short-run, input prices are fixed but output prices are variable. In the long run, input prices and output prices can vary.

Describe the AS curve in the Immediate Short run.
