Show your calculations

Explanation / Answer

1) the factors that affect the amount that consumers, businesses, government, and foreigners wish to purchase at each price level are the determinants of aggregate demand.


2) aggregate demand curve will shift rightward by $80.
aggegate demand = investment * (1/1-MPC)
= 20 * (1/1-0.75)
= 20 * 4
= $80

3) aggegate demand = technology investment * (1/1-MPC)
= 20 * (1/1-0.4)
= 20 * 1.66
= $33.33
