- Use the data to graph the Aggregate Demand and Aggregate Supply
curves.
 
- What will be the equilibrium price and output levels in this
hypothetical economy? Is it also the full employment level of
output? Explain.
 
- Why won’t 150 be the equilibrium price level? Why won’t 250 be
the equilibrium price level? Explain.
 
- Suppose demand increases by $400 billion at each price level.
What will be the new equilibrium price and output levels? Explain
and show on the graph.
 
- What factors might cause the Aggregate Demand to increase as in
question 4? Explain.
