ADJUSTMENT, LONG-RUN AGGREGATE MARKET: Disequilibrium in the long-run aggregate market induces changes in the price level that restore equilibrium. If the price level is above the long-run equilibrium price level, economy-wide product market surpluses cause the price level to fall. If the price level is below the long-run equilibrium price level, economy-wide product market shortages cause the price level to rise. In both cases long-run equilibrium is restored. Price level changes induce changes in aggregate expenditures but NOT changes in real production. The reason is that long-run aggregate supply is full-employment real production, which is unaffected by the price level.

CONSUMER PRICE INDEX FOR ALL URBAN CONSUMERS An index of prices of goods and services typically purchased by urban consumers. The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) is the official name for the Consumer Price Index (CPI) commonly reported in the media. It is compiled and published monthly by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), using price data obtained from an elaborate survey of 25,000 retail outlets and quantity data generated by the Consumer Expenditures Survey. The CPI-U is so designated to differentiate it from the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W).
