Expert Solution

The answer is C.

AD shifts left.

Increase in imports but not exports would decrease net exports ie NX

AD=C+I+G+NX

Assuming no change in other variables,this will reduce AD and AD would shift left.

An increase in consumer confidence will shift the AD curve to the right.

The answer is C.

increase in aggregate demand.

AD=C+I+G+NX
