WAGES

Nominal wages - amount of money received by a worker per unit of time

Real wages - amount of goods and services a worker can purchase with their nominal wage

Sticky wages - it is the nominal wage level that is set according to an initial price level and it does not vary due to labor contracts or other restrictions 

Implications recessions - output depends on changes in employment level 

Implication intermediate - output depends on changes in price and employment level

Implication inflation- output is independent of changes in the price level
