Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
True or False:Equilibrium level of output increases proportionate to the increase in investment in the economy.
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In other words, there is more desired investment at each level of income. As a result equilibrium income rises from Y0 to Y1. Thus while a rise in planned investment expenditure raises equilibrium national income, a fall in planned investment expenditure lowers it.

Detailed explanation-2: -If both demand and supply increase, there will be an increase in the equilibrium output, but the effect on price cannot be determined.

Detailed explanation-3: -Output is at its equilibrium when quantity of output produced (AS) is equal to quantity demanded (AD). The economy is in equilibrium when aggregate demand represented by C + I is equal to total output.

Detailed explanation-4: -False. While investment is autonomous, increase in income is induced through increase in expenditure.
