Title: A Note on Aggregate Price-Level Elasticity and Supply-Side Shocks

Abstract: This note investigates several factors that influence the short-run and long-run effects of supply-side shocks on aggregate income and tax revenues; specifically, how changes in the price-level elasticities of the aggregate demand, short-run aggregate supply relationships, and changes in the magnitude of the shocks alter the macroeconomic effects of the shocks.
