Suppose that for each one-percentage-point increase in the interest rate, the level of investment spending declines by $0.5 billion. The change in the interest rate (according to the change you made to the money market in the previous scenario) therefore causes the level of investment spending to by After the multiplier effect is accounted for, the change in investment spending will cause the quantity of output demanded to by at each price level. The impact of an increase in government purchases on the interest rate and the level of investment spending is known as the effect.

Transcribed Image Text:Consider a hypothetical economy in which households spend $0.50 of each additional dollar they earn and save the remaining $0.50. The following
graph shows the economy's initial aggregate demand curve (AD1).
Suppose the government increases its purchases by $2.5 billion.
Use the green line (triangle symbol) on the following graph to show the aggregate demand curve (AD2) after the multiplier effect takes place.
Hint: Be sure the new aggregate demand curve (AD2) is parallel to AD1. You can see the slope of AD1 by selecting it on the following graph.
