Autonomous Demand
Autonomous demand is the portion of aggregate demand that is independent of the level of income or output. In the simplified multiplier model, it is calculated as the sum of autonomous consumption () and exogenous investment (). The formula is: Autonomous Demand = . This represents the total planned spending that would occur in the economy even if income were zero.

Graphical Representation of the Aggregate Demand Function
Autonomous Demand
In a simplified economic model, total planned spending (aggregate demand, AD) is the sum of consumption (C) and planned investment (I). If the consumption function is given by the equation C = 250 + 0.6Y, where Y is income, and planned investment is fixed at a value of 150, which of the following equations correctly represents the aggregate demand function for this economy?
Analyzing Components of Aggregate Demand
Calculating Total Planned Spending
Consider an economy where total planned spending is the sum of consumption and planned investment. If the consumption behavior is described by a standard linear function dependent on income, and planned investment is a fixed amount, a decrease in this fixed amount of investment will cause the total planned spending function to shift upwards for any given level of income.
In a simplified economic model where total planned spending is the sum of consumption and a fixed amount of investment, the resulting aggregate demand (AD) function is given by the equation: . Match each component from the equation to its correct economic description.

Comparing Economic Behavior via Aggregate Demand Functions
In a simplified economy, total planned spending (aggregate demand, AD) is the sum of consumption (C) and planned investment (I). The aggregate demand function is given by the equation AD = 500 + 0.75Y, where Y is income. If planned investment is a fixed amount of 200, which of the following equations correctly represents the consumption function for this economy?
Critique of the Simplified Aggregate Demand Model
In a simplified economy where total planned spending is the sum of consumption and planned investment, the consumption function is given by C = 100 + 0.8Y and planned investment (I) is a fixed amount of 50. If the current level of income (Y) is 1,000, the portion of total planned spending that is induced by income is ____.

In a simplified model of a closed economy with no government sector, the consumption function is described by the equation C = 200 + 0.75Y, where C is total consumption and Y is total income. Planned investment (I) is fixed at 150. Based on this information, what is the total level of spending that would occur if national income were zero?

Analyzing Shifts in Autonomous Demand
In a simplified economic model where total planned spending is determined by consumption and investment, which of the following events would cause a change in the portion of total spending that is independent of the current level of national income?
In a simplified economic model where total planned spending consists of consumption and investment, a decrease in the marginal propensity to consume will lead to a decrease in the level of autonomous demand.
In a closed economy with no government, the aggregate demand function is given by the equation AD = 350 + 0.6Y. In this model, the value of autonomous demand is ____.
In a simplified economic model, a portion of total spending is determined by factors other than the current level of national income. This spending consists of autonomous consumption (spending not dependent on income) and planned investment. Match each economic event described below with its most direct impact on this type of spending.
The Role of Autonomous Spending in Economic Models
In a simplified economic model, the aggregate demand function is initially given by AD = 500 + 0.8Y. If a widespread decrease in consumer confidence causes the portion of spending that is independent of income to fall by 50, what will be the new aggregate demand function?
