Michael F.Bryan and John B.Martin  \nAIthough economists share a com-mon science,their roles in society vary agreat deal.Academic economists expandour understanding of the purpose andoperation of markets.Govemment econ-omists use this knowledge to guide poli-cies.And business economists applythese principles to enterprise.  \nPerhaps because of these vastly differentroles,the bridges that link economists indisparate fields can be narrow and farapart.Yet each discipline depends on theother.Business economists need to beexposed to the frontiers of economicthought and to keep abreast of govem-ment policies that influence their compa-nies.Academics must evaluate the con-formity between theory and evidence.And govemment economists are calledon to synthesize the sometimes abstractthoughts of academics and the practicalconsiderations of business.  \nIn this spirit,the Federal Reserve Bank ofCleveland hosts the Fourth District Econ-omists'Roundtable,a thrice-annual meet-ing of business economists.Throughthese encounters,we hope to considerinnovative and potentially useful ideas inacademic research,to discuss issuesregarding the economic outlook,and toprovide a forum for participants to cri-tique the conduct of monetary policy.This EconomicCommentary is a sum-mary of the group'sNovember 3 meeting.  \n# Year-End Report of the FourthDistrict Economists'Roundtable\n\n■ The Economic OutlookAt its May 20 meeting,the Roundtableprojected that the economy wouldstrengthen from its 2%percent first-quarter growth rate to 3%percent in1994:IIQ.After that brief spurt,the pan-elists expected growth to moderate,withoutput rising about 3 percent in the thirdquarter and then leveling off at around23%percent through the end of 1995.The view at that time was that after afinal burst in production spurred byinvestment spending,particularly onbusiness equipment and consumerdurables,the economy would graduallyslow to its potential growth rate.  \nThe actual GDP numbers proved to besomewhat better than that projection,with output rising 4.1 percent and 3.9percent in the second and third quarters,respectively.To some,this indicated thatthe economy had a bit more room toexpand before it was pushed to its pro-duction limits.To others,it warned thatwe had entered a zone of overcapacityproduction—an area where it is pre-sumed that inflationary pressures beginto percolate.  \nAt its November caucus,the Roundtablecontinued to project a significant slowingin the pace of business activity,and foressentially the same reasons as stated lastMay:There comes a point in every ex-pansion when resources become fullyemployed and the economy naturallyloses steam(figure 1).The median viewof the 18 panelists is for realGDP to  \nDecember 15,1994  \nAt its final meeting of 1994,theFourth District Economists'Round-table projected that real GDP willmoderate slightly this quarter andinto 1995,while inflation is expectedto hold steady or even pick up a bit.This Economic Commentary is a sum-mary of the group's November 3meeting,held at the Federal ReserveBank of Cleveland.  \nmoderate to a 2.9 percent pace this quar-ter,although the range of expectations isrelatively wide—from highs of 3.6 per-cent to lows of just under 2 percent.Aswe move into 1995,the economy'sgrowth trajectory is expected to retum toa level similar to its postwar average,about 2.5 percent.  \nThe probability distributions of thegrowth projections for 1995 and 1996were fairly uniform,and the panel seeslittle prospect of a recession during thenext two years.Chances that the econ-omy will average less than a 2 percentgrowth nate were set at no more than onein five for 1995 and at only about one inthree for 1996.  \nMany analysts believe that inflationarypressures become prominent only afteran economy's resources have beenstretched to capacity.This occurs if anation's actual growth rate exceeds itspotential growth rate for a sustained
