Expert Solution
Step 1

1) The demand curve shows the contraction in the Australian Economy due to lesser production, investment, income generation and demand. The direct effects of the bushfires reduced GDP growth across the December 2019 and March 2020 quarters by around 0.2 percentage points, with some recovery in the June quarter and beyond.

 

The bushfire affects the real state, manufacturing and service sector most as the woods used for certain tasks aren't available and caused the industry to fall.
